A vast majority of the time, I sincerely feel as though absolutely no one is ever going to hire me to do anything...so I figure, "Why even bother trying?" Why apply when most employers will just throw my application in the trash when they see I'm a 25-year-old with virtually no work history? Or I get an interview and then I just happen to not get hired once the employer hears I'm in college. Or when I get out of grad school - if I last that long without leaping off the nearest bridge - I'm going to have to hide a $50,000 degree because it makes me overqualified for 99 percent of all jobs anyway? I will be overqualified and underqualified for every possible job at the same time.
That's all I ever get is fail fail fail. Not a lick of success. Having things work in my favor once in a while might prompt me to keep trying, but all I've experienced as far as job applications and interviews (and actual jobs) is failure - no calls, no getting hired, and when I did get hired for the first time, I was bullied by the manager on a regular basis and then fired for daring to complain to HR about it.
I know I need to work, but I simply have zero desire to even try anymore because I know it will all just end in failure. If I get hired, management will be hunting for reasons to can my ass like dogs hunting for a fox. Does anyone else feel this way too, or am I the deviant?
Too bad cancer runs in my family - I'd consider making a living being a human guinea pig or donating my eggs or something.
