    Got rejected from another job despite everything going really well with an initial phone interview.

    I did horribly on the video interview and I despise that corporations can’t even give you the time of day for a 15 minute in-person interview to save money. I just can’t talk to a lifeless computer, and there’s nothing I do worse at. Doesn’t matter what my resume looks like, or how well I can speak, I can’t talk to a fucking computer.

    I don’t get how anyone else has a decent job. There’s nothing in a 50km radius available in the shithole where I am, and I can’t move. I just want to give up. Well guess there’s always the minimum wage shithole gas station.

        I hope so too. It’s difficult. I plan to move in a few months as a massive gamble if I get lucky enough, but I can only wait and see if that plan goes through.

        Hilariously I was turned down a few hours ago by the minimum wage gas station fallback jobs because I was seen as “overqualified” and “unlikely to be retained.
