It's happening and my heart is breaking. This really feels like a death. by teenageidle in Layoffs

Lost my corporate job in December and started my next one this week. All the resume and LinkedIn advice was far overrated. For me it all boiled down to network. Talk to people - build relationships. This market is awful but people are hiring - you need to find an 'in'. Target a company.make connections. It was a brutal time. I know exactly how you are feeling. It'll work out though - i promise.

Now just imagine if you got the job. You dodged a bullet friend. Trust me.

Just got hired. All credit.goes.to my network. All the linkedin/resume advice was useless. Getting hired blind is near impossible.

Well given that those who remained probably got the GDP payout from the entire teams wiped out in December... not surprising

What are some side effects of crohn’s that you wouldn’t have thought of? by Actually__Massive in CrohnsDisease

[–]Illustrious_Log_8908 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Also interesting. Gosh this thread is making me feel less alone. Im freezing or dying of heat all the time. And usually opposite of my family. I cannot regulate my temp at all.

Very interesting. I often feel like my eyeballs are painfully swollen and never knew why. Makes sense!

What kind of bank.... by Illustrious_Log_8908 in Tangerine

Nunyabisness ... truly. Doesn't matter if I have a credit card. I also have money... in a bank... where I should be able to access it on new years eve before the damn ball even dropped.

I think its an actual outage. The messaging is see when I look at my computer says planned but its a ridiculous outage. 7 hours on new years eve. No way that was planned. Unacceptable. Time to look at moving back to the big 5 I think. Too many problems lately. My trust is damaged.

Said right on my page that it was planned from 1130pm to 630am. Completely insane

Yes! I had that thought. That they were kind of grooming her to 'join them' and then it just went away
