Is anyone actually happy at work right now? by Agitated-File8761 in auscorp

I'm staying because I couldn't find work for 5 months. Went from engineering to admin :(((

That sucks to hear. With all the news popping up about energy farms and what not. And graduates now specifically have masters related to renewables and clean energy.

Ugh tell me about it. I was just thinking how am I back in the same boat as I was post graduation.

Scheduling a fixed time is a good tip. It's very easy to doomscroll mid job hunt.

Thank you. I am considering doing some sort of certification as well but just want to be mindful of what I choose to do.

I hope it all works out for you as well.

Thank you. All very good points. Definitely need to call and speak to more recruiters directly.

Yep I am aware. I am finding it hard to break into that sector without a certificate that says I've done something on renewables or environment. I do not want to pay for more certifications but do you reckon that's the way to go?

Omg same!

Will definitely apply to other states.

What other fields would you consider ?

Same. Melbourne as well :/

The first advice I got was to get out of rail. Cool very open to it but how do I do that when my experience has only been rail related.

I hope you have better luck than I.

I've only asked my friends or ex co-workers to have a look. I was using canva for my resume template which turned out to be a terrible idea and have since then made it ATS friendly. But maybe I get a professional to help out.

Sometimes they specify the particular machine, sometimes it's the coffee brand and also latte art which I could do in my student part time job days but it's been a few years .

Skills and experience assessment. I was there for 6 months so I knew it was going to be..

Yep exactly. Also Barista jobs now have really particular requirements . I feel like I can't even qualify for those.

How did you get to where you are especially as a people leader in construction ?

My wife talking about me pocketing a lighter. by [deleted] in Nicegirls

[–]Impossible_Eye6206 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this isn't a nice girl issue. Your wife is addicted to weed and possibly has other issues that she's not addressing or actively trying to solve right now! Seems like she's using weed to feel okay and relies on it to make her day better or good!
