These past couple of months have been so hard. I get that we are in a recession, but seriously I have been on like five interviews and have put in a gang of applications and either no one is calling me back or I get the interview and that's where it stops. I am getting so fed up. I have a job but it's a dead end job. I can't move up, they cut my pay, and on top of that, my boss had the nerve to ask me if I really wanted the job that I'm waiting on to call me. What type of stupid question is that? I mean come on. Where am I messing up at?
