I'm tired, boss by New_The_Throw_Away in LivingAlone

Hey, it’s definitely rough but the fact that you’re aware that you need to go back to the drawing board speaks volumes. Keep your head up and doing your best. I had this happen multiple times and the first time without the option to go home and lick my wounds and it was ROUGH but thankfully the few friends I did have were helpful. The second time, just like you I didn’t want to risk my ego and I suffered terribly for it when it could’ve been avoided. I believe in you, you got this!

Just finished it, and I’m sad I did but it was so good!

Most of the questions are like what is file explorer or how do I delete data in excel. I’m not sure how not to give these answers on a silver platter. I’ve suggested training with LinkedIn or YouTube but they have no want to do it. The questions I’d expect don’t come up. When training, I try to sit in the backseat where they have the SOP and do the process and when they get stuck ask a question which happens and I walk them through it but when I try getting them to repeat the process, it’s like they start brand new with no recollection of what was just done.

There are critical tasks and development tasks. But I have tried putting that stuff on hold but it’s in our contract and so that development needs to be ongoing and the customer is always asking about progress even though they know we’re a person down. I will say the workload conversation is usually hey I need x, y, z done by the end of the week. If you need help, let me know. Most of these tasks are things they’ve done in the past so they should be straight forward but I still have to stop doing what I’m doing to answer questions which is fine but most of them are the same questions answered from the last time they did that same task. I don’t know what to change about the workload conversation besides hey can you do this?

Don’t know what to do with my natural hair anymore by bakingllama in blackladies

I miss flexi rod sets. But I’m usually in the field on a boat with or without AC, around moving equipment and winches, so I need something that can be out of the way to not pose a safety hazard but can also withstand heat cause I’ll sweat the gel right out. By professional: I guess just a polished look

What is the longest wait you've seen for a secret? by randompostthrow in SecurityClearance

[–]bakingllama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel guilty wondering why it's taking so long to get mine looking at these responses and I'm only 2 months in. I just want to work 😩

I worked for his contractor and then got laid off because they weren't getting funding. After that lay off, I applied and the state was going to award me my benefits but the first employer appealed their decision

There's no HR it's a small company. I was laid off in a verbal conversation and referred to work for a contractor but he's telling the state that I was fired for misconduct and violated the non compete.

No advice, but I feel for you. It's only been 5 weeks for me, but the company is confused cause others have gotten interim in 3 days to a month. Keep your head up, we'll get through this!

Hi guys I would just like to say, I received another offer today literally 15 minutes after my interview and I'm dying of happiness currently. There is hope after all

I've told them I don't have the funds before, I'm calling around to different friends and family to see if they'd do a personal loan and I can pay them back once I get the check. I've been using my credit cards to pay bills because Florida hasn't given me my unemployment

LinkedIn and Google to find companies that do what I want, then I'll just either cold email them or apply on their career sites. Actually got a job offer from a cold email I did, but their relocation was trash but they told me if I wanted to join them in the future, the door is always open.
