    I hate looking for jobs. The whole process always feels way more complicated than it should be…

      It’s such a joke. So much spin, double-speak, and lying from potential employers. And that’s when the job market is decent. When the job market is tight a lot of that goes away the underlying dismissive/shitty attitude towards candidates shines through.

        That was me finishing school 10+ years ago and I still don’t really know what I want to do. I’ve just kinda milled around and done a bunch of different roles.

        I’m just looking for anything atm so I’m more financially stable

        Wishing you the best with that!

        I’m guessing there’d still be some joy from finally graduating?

          I dunno, studying is fun. Though obviously difficult, in its own way. The main thing is that I’m worried what damn continent I’ll be on in 6 months lmfao, and also whether I’ll need to once again rebuild an entire friend group after leaving the environment

            It’s been 20+ years since I graduated college, and I still regularly talk to my mates I made in my first year. Making close friends once you hit the workplace can be tough. It always surprises me which coworkers become long-term friends. Usually it’s not the ones you’d think when you’re working either.

              Yeah. It’s gonna be fucking hard to keep friends from college if I’m on a different fucking continent from them though. Hardly have any friends in Hong Kong left at this rate, everyone’s emigrated.

                All my uni friends are UK or Europe based. I live several hours time difference away from all of them. It’s not especially easy, but it’s possible.
