I work a classic retail job, it's honestly really fun and enjoyable when the coworkers I like are there. There are definitely plenty times I've wanted to up and quit but I've got bills to pay. Hopefully though, I can finish my little bookkeeping courses that I'm doing online and then I can transfer to that line of work (I'm working to become an accountant in the future).

I have so many thoughts and unorganized opinions on how employment should be and what the ideal business model is that includes taking into account the needs, feelings, and wellbeing of employees that it'd be hard to lay them out! One thing I do know for sure is I wish businesses would actually care about what employees are saying. There are definitely places that do that, but even those places sometimes look more at what's going to keep bringing in their profit than making sure they have happy employees. Hoping what I wrote just made sense but the gist is: LISTEN TO US! We want the business to succeed just as much as you but we also want living wages, proper treatment, and less stress PLEASE!

You don't happen to be a software engineer? If you are I'm curious about what your experience is. I've heard it's super internally competitive and kind of miserable to work there. I've thought about applying, but I don't want to be overworked and unhappy. Not that I would necessarily get an offer, I'm pretty average software engineer.

nope, I'm in customer support, which is ok, only chat and emails. however the software engineers we have are ok, not the best but decent. guess it depends on the country :D

I'm so scared about what I'll do if I don't get this job.
Even a pet store didn't respond to me- what will I do if the job that interviewed me didn't hire me?
I recommend you become active on Linkedin and have a nice resume! not very colorful or shit, but more creative than the ones we all use. I made mine in Canva :D sometimes recruiters contact me for random jobs and it's nice to know I can always leave for better

Well I wish you the best in your graduate studies and in med school. It's a commendable and, quite frankly, underappreciated profession to pursue.

recently I've started thinking about getting a job, I'm in school but some extra money would be nice, the problem is covid, 99% of places I go to now no one wears a mask and I don't feel like dealing with that? maybe ill just find an online job at this point as i also cant drive for multiple reasons, so working from home is my best bet.

I need to get a new job soon, I've been living off doing side projects for people but my past job was a nightmare. I worked in food service, during last couple months of pandemic recently, and we were constantly understaffed. It seems not that hard until you get into working and it is exhausting making minimum wage like that.

Having two jobs is always nice if the second job is a hobby/something you enjoy, like art or writing etc.!

Update: I got the job, and ended up getting offered more money than I asked for! I had help from my professor with mock interviews and polishing up my resume. I'm so thrilled that I ended up getting it since I wasn't entirely confident. I wish everyone luck in getting a job or career that they want!
