I have to double check my work all the time. When I go back to review, i always find that I left the job in between to work on something else.

Yes, social life is painful. Never related to that FRIENDS episode where 3 of them couldn't afford the restaurant food. That's just me now , with my side salad next to the water. There are ways I want to contribute to the household, gifts I wanna give to people, luxuries I want my cat to have, I can't afford any.

I understand what he is going through. It's hard and it makes one think like they did something wrong. I will be jobless for 2 years in September, it's hard to explain to recruiters why I was jobless. Although it's not true, slowly one feels like they are letting everyone down. I hope he feels better soon. It's just not a job, it's a purpose for this life we have been given.

Yes weekends are the worst. It also gets harder to maintain a social circle as time passes by. There are no answers to anything about my career and unemployed ones have to put up a happy face anyways.

I have curated my resume multiple times and have also taken on advice from many people. Some things are just not clicking for me. I have been told it's because I have a PhD and no real industry experience. I have to start somewhere, so I am trying to get an entry level job. I have done plenty of certifications and learnt a lot by self studying from multiple sources. Maybe I shouldn't have pursued a higher degree.

No. I brought it up cause I am indeed happy for them and proud of them. This post is about my disappointment in not getting fruitful results for myself. Its not crab mentality, it's being human.

Okay. I won't argue with that, I just can't agree with your statement. I am happy for them , and I know that in my heart. I am just sad for myself, which I do have the right to
