Been working at a vet clinic for 3+ years, got "let go" today. Basically I get no hours but I'm not fired or off the payroll. I just have "no hours but if we have relief work we'll let you know" I was loyal for 3 years, they had other people steal from them and they still kept em on board. I did stuff far above my pay grade/training. I hosed my back up working for them. Not a single raise in 3 years despite an increase in job responsibilities. Trained my replacement. I basically have WELCOME tatted on my face because of how much of a doormat I am. I liked that job. I had a good day at work today aside from the last 5 minutes I mean, it's basically "nut up and get another job you goonlord" but gently caress it feels really bad

I watched em die when they were a hot mess of seizures and agonizing pain. It was for the best I had to stomp a bird once because it was all hosed up with a torn wing and guts falling out after a cat got hold of it. Bad way to start a sunday. Also killin peeps is sketchy and kinda wrong, im not the sort of person who's down for shuffling other people off this mortal coil

We had a second person leave our department this week and there's uncertainty that anyone will be hired to replace them. I'm about to send this off to my department head so I might be joining you. quote:There’s never a good time for this, but with all the changes we’re going through I need to bring it up. It’s been over a year and a half since my last raise. I make [redacted]/hr. You would know better than I, but I have to believe that is below average for [redacted] in this market. I am not a below average [redacted], and it is getting demoralizing being reminded every two weeks that this company seems to think I am.

This is a good thing. Take your experience to a place that will pay you more.

Reminder that not getting a raise is a pay decrease every single year, even without added responsibilities. The cost of living rises every year. It's also not 2008/2009. It's never "easy" to get a job, but if you live near any sort of metro area, there are jobs. It's funny, the people who mope about having no jobs, stay in jobs that treat them like poo poo, etc. are always the low confidence ones who whine about there being no jobs. Just like the idiots that stay in loveless relationships and are blindsided when their partner leaves, this should not have been a surprise: they already don't respect you. Your "loyalty" is laughable - they haven't even given you a raise. Nobody is going to hand you poo poo. Get confident in your skills and abilities, don't come off like a doormat. Dust yourself off and apply for jobs. I'm sure you liked the job but getting soft fired from an entry level position is not something you should need to come to the E/N forum to handle.

Totally agree. Op needs to show a little more loyalty to the Stars and Stripes and he'll be rewarded with annual $100k bonuses from Uncle Sam due to his "operator" status

I'm sure you liked the job but getting soft fired from an entry level position is not something you should need to come to the E/N forum to handle. I have some pretty bad self esteem and confidence problems. My inner monologue is basically "you're a stupid and worthless piece of poo poo who should loving die already and stop taking up oxygen why havent you hanged yourself yet" on repeat all day. I have very little confidence, I'm seeing a therapist but its slow going. I've been looking at other jobs for a while now but I know they're just going to reject me anyway so why even bother getting my hopes up yet again? Every time I've gotten excited for a new job because I get a second interview or all the way to a background check it winds up being "nope, sorry" and it's like gently caress man I just want to work I don't really have any friends, aside from going to work my actual irl contact with people other than my family is essentially zero. "oh just go out and meet new people be yourself join a club or something" well yeah but I feel like poo poo all the time and I'm sure it shows in my body language that I'm some depressed goonlord. People just don't really like me much, or I end up weirding people out because my social skills have always been poo poo. I just feel wholly incapable of hacking it at life. Also I know the whole become a SEAL was a joke post but I did try to join the military a long time ago and got rejected so yeah that avenue isn't really an option either.

Minarchist posted:brb becoming a sociopath so I can neutralize browns for are freedoms lol at your implication that military folks are sociopaths who love to kill browns. You sure know your poo poo guy, that's exactly why PTSD is so prevalent, that's what you get when you love murdering you some browns. Also, only browns are killed, and if you're shown to have emotion you get kicked out so this won't work for you sir, move on to jobs that require lots of hand-wringing and crying

Would be interested to know why you were rejected, because that has a lot to do with whether or not it's a time to say gently caress it why try that poo poo again. Because getting rejected for something a long time ago totally means you shouldn't try again
