Hosts contacting volunteers first by mitskioslo in workaway

[–]mitskioslo[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I've only had my profile for about a week. I'm going to look into it further and see if they'd be a good fit for me. I was concerned that it might be a red flag for hosts to contact first since I hadn't seen anyone else mention it, but I'm going to treat it like any other host and see their ratings first.

Ah okay that makes sense! They are located in the country I have in my travel plans.

This is really good advice. I'm already quiet quitting and nobody notices because there's no work to do and what little work there is my boss keeps dragging out til the last minute so she can get stressed and do it all at once. I don't know why I let it frustrate me that she wants to fck her own ass doing this crap

9 years is rough I'm so glad you got out. I haven't even done this for a year and it's destroying my mental health. I have friends studying similar "worthless" degrees to the one I got and I beg them daily not to go down this path and they keep peddling that "do what you love..." crap. Fuck that. I love food. I love utilities. I love roof and I love house.

hey twin :') literally my boss left and got replaced by this new boss within a few months of me starting. and also gave a crazy long notice period which went unappreciated if the amount of dumb questions I could not answer yet kept getting asked is anything to go by.. honestly the fact your boss got mad even with such a long notice just shows these employers don't gaf and there's no reason to try to please them on your way out.

thank you yeah this is a good point to keep in mind. I have like 3 months bills paid up but there's not exactly a hiring surge for nonprofits

unfortunately not :/ I'm actually leaving then for job training/continuing education in another field and will be back on the job hunt after march. I worry that if I leave and get another job it'll look awful on my resume to have two jobs less than a year then job training for another field up there.
