Don’t know what I expected. Couldn’t badge in. It’s funny, I’m pissed off at myself. Also, I’m glad I don’t have to go back to that place again. I’ll have to see if they call me tomorrow. I’m imploding in real time too, so that’s fun. I’ll have to see if I get a call from them or not. Otherwise, it’s whatever.
Now I just need a different job at this point, even though I’m driving myself mad with job applications.
Maybe I’ll stop posting now. I think I’ve officially slid back down to bottom, again.

How do you know it’s something you did? Large organizations, the reasons they do things don’t always make sense, they often make no sense at all. You being burnt out isn’t your fault.
It’s a loss, no downplaying that. Maybe someday you’ll be grateful. I think about the last job to be done with me, and at the time I was so angry at everyone including myself. Now, two years later, I realize they did me a favor. I would have spent an indefinite amount of time trying to make it work, if they had left the door even slightly open. I would have gotten much sicker, who knows how sick? and in the end, I don’t think it would have made any difference. They were and are toxic. Only people with the same kind of sick inside could thrive there.
I’m still nursing my wounds from that and other jobs, but I’m level. I’m stable and willing to put my health ahead of a job, which wasn’t the case until recently.
It’s def my fault, even though I’d let them know I wasn’t well.
It was driving me mad going to work there because I’d been there so long, seen so much crap and also just wasn’t properly trained in this new queue. I was hoping to find something else before just packing it up but hey, this forces me to find something else asap.
The thing is, tech sector is garbage rn. I have no degree and no A+, Network+ certification and not a lot of experience so I’m basically not finding anything except contract work with no benefits for even less pay.
It’s just difficult. We are all struggling unless you make 6 figures, and now I need to find a new job asap or I’m screwed.
Idk man, I’m just tired of a lot of things.
Nice to know at least that it’s not just me, the tech sector I mean. That was my backup plan, I thought there was zero chance that mental health AND tech would let me down at the same time…… two most reliably profitable industries on the planet, but they can’t keep people at work. Funny, in a sick sadistic sort of way.
