Yeah. I work in IT. Or worked. I’m not sure anymore.
I was doing level 1 support on the phone for a few years and was able to put a bit of money aside during the pandemic.
A few months ago my employer took a new client, an oil company. As I hate them with all my being, and the work was more about telling low wage employees to wait business hours instead of helping them, I quit.
I absolutely don’t miss Windows, Teams, Office, Microsoft products… Salesforce, Citrix, and all those. I’m so happy without them in my life.
But I need to pay rent and eat, so I started looking for work again and, OMFG, I really don’t want to go back to that shit.
Oh Cynthia
Still can’t find a job, so I’m both financially AND mentally unstable
Silvia (through the tears): Angelica is the best boss ever!..
Cynthia is even more distraught
Oh, Cynthia. Correct. Forgot the name.
unpopular opinion : i like my job.
Same, I love my job I would do it for free and yet they pay me good money to do it, FROM HOME!
I felt like this for a while. I was doing cool and interesting stuff… then i learned that my employer charges the people we contract me out to at $330/hr and i make no where near that. Burst that bubble real quick
Oh that I’m absolutely sure it’s happening, but I don’t have the reputation or the sales team to land clients on my own so I have to rely on the company
can’t have both
I hate you
