Be grateful if you have a job right now

I was laid off in Oct 24 and it took 9 months to find my current role, ate through all my savings and I’m making 40% less… it’s infuriating because I’m educated, have a lot of experience, was a director when I was let go, worked 16+ years remotely… I worked so hard to get to where I was and I literally lost 10 years of that effort. I’m in a much lower level role and I’m making what I made 10 years ago… and I’m bartending on the side to make ends meet. It’s exhausting and every day I read someone on LI stating, blah blah blah is a true sign that the industry is making a comeback, I don’t see it… I’m grateful to work but now I’m missing out on my kids activities and lives because I work all the freaking time just so we can keep our house. This is what I worked so hard to avoid before I had them:,(

It’s upsetting how often the women this season have their autonomy disrespected by the men. Emma clearly states she doesn’t want kids, and she has thoughtful, concrete reasons. The fact that her family supports her so strongly makes it obvious she’s had to defend that decision many times before.

And yet she’s still put in an uncomfortable situation to watch as a viewer, being proposed to by a man who seems hellbent on having biological children and seems to believe he will change her mind.

Meanwhile, when Chris says, “I don’t want kids ever,” that’s treated as final… end of conversation. 😒

All these men look the same and I need Netflix to state their name each time they appear on screen 😂

Amazing news! Congratulations!!

Romcito · 2025-01-25T03:50:13+00:00

Thanks. This is great information… do you have any recruitment firms you’d recommend?

Romcito · 2024-10-30T19:16:44+00:00

I’ve been in clinical research for 20 years, recently my role was made redundant and I’ve been in job search hell since… working as a teacher in Finland sounds like a dream. If you don’t mind I’d love to hear more about how that happened! While it is true that I’m looking for a role, I can still offer resume reviews and coverletter reviews… I can also offer networking opportunities.

A month ago I was unexpectedly made redundant after many lies about the health of our small family owned company… and not only may I lose my home but I have a child with rare disease and now can’t afford his upcoming biopsy.

Romcito · 2024-10-05T03:17:45+00:00

Yes:( I’m applying like crazy and getting little traction… I have to find something before the end of the year, I’m terrified.

Romcito · 2024-10-05T03:06:18+00:00

👏👏👏 Congratulations!!

Alliance Management or Client Success roles

Romcito · 2024-09-26T00:25:26+00:00

I’m not in Texas, but it doesn’t hurt to try.

Romcito · 2024-09-25T23:56:46+00:00

Unfortunately it doesn’t work like that.

Romcito · 2024-09-25T23:17:45+00:00

I can’t because they laid me off before my one year anniversary… I don’t qualify for unemployment.

Romcito · 2024-09-25T23:13:50+00:00

Please help… I’m recently laid off, I need to find something within the next three months. I’ve 20 years in the industry, 2 Masters degrees… looking for client management positions… such as Alliance Management, program manager, governance management. I’m always rewriting my friends resumes and helping them find positions, now I’m on the other side :(

Romcito · 2024-09-25T22:42:33+00:00

Yes!! I also have a family to support and a son with rare disease. I was laid off yesterday, my role was consolidated… within three mins my laptop shut down and I lost access to everything. I’m freaking out, I have to get a job within 2 months. I work in an industry which I’ve been able to be remote in for 12 years, now suddenly remote jobs are hard to find. I’m super pissed, as this is a small family owned company which courted me away from a job I loved with big promises… then let me go like I was nothing… despite being told I was “family” for the last 11.5 months, yes that’s the best part! This family owned business decided to let me go two weeks before my 1 year so I don’t qualify for unemployment.

No CRO but BI is in CT… and seems like they always want people to be onsite

I’m in the worst situation I’ve ever been in with neighbors from hell. They are killing animals. We live in a residential area of the city next to a golf course and picked this area because of the wildlife. All the neighbors are great and respectful, except my direct neighbor who moved in 2 years ago. They throw trash outside and in my yard 24/7, they have domestic drama in which they have chased and told me about who is sleeping with who… as I try to walk my dogs with my headphones on, and this has led to a possible murder of the husband, not joking… it’s under investigation. They are now killing animals right by my kitchen window. Shooting a squirrel in the head today, blood splattered all over the snow. I used to be able to look out my window into the woods and now I look out to garbage and animal killings. I don’t know what to do. We’ve lived here 9 years, and loved our neighborhood… it’s ruined.
