Feeling Worthless

I have been unemployed since August. They eliminated my position due to budget cuts.

I had a job in December but the position was hell on earth with the amount of shady politics that went on I had to leave. (That could be a whole other post honestly)

I had my hopes brought up so many times just to have them knocked down. I get all the way to the end of interviews and I’m not chosen(which i understand and can handle rejection.) But the best one yet, they tell me I am a excellent candidate and then I never hear from them again. They ghost me and no matter how many times I reach out I get no response.

Recently I had a potential employer bail on my interview twice only to email me they are going in a different direction. Another one asked me to prepare a workflow process to presentation. I spent an entire weekend on it only to get a call that they decided to go with someone else who was farther along in the process and cancelled my presentation.

I have a bachelors, been managing since 2013 and have accomplished a lot in my young age. I am so tired of employers looking at me like I’m not good enough and treating me like I am less than equal to them.

My husband and I fight constantly because he hates my negative attitude i get from time to time, but I have to listen to him bitch about his job and how miserable he is (he works for the same company that let me go in August).

With each day that passes I feel more and more useless to society. I just want my life back. 😞
