SilentSonata+FollowThought I'd Find $100K Job Without Training - Reality Hit Hard 😰Hey everyone, I'm really struggling here and need some honest advice 😔 Six months ago, I quit my retail job thinking I'd easily land a $100K position without any special training or skills. I kept seeing people online asking about these "easy" high-paying careers, so I figured they must exist, right? Boy, was I wrong. I've been rejected from countless interviews because I lack experience, certifications, or relevant education. Companies want proven skills, not just enthusiasm 💔 My savings are running low, and I'm starting to panic. I'm beginning to realize that maybe those "no training required" six-figure jobs are mostly myths. Should I swallow my pride and invest in some actual training or education? Has anyone else fallen into this trap of unrealistic expectations? I feel so naive and desperate right now. Any guidance would mean the world to me 🙏 #JobCareer #Career #careerreality1827Share
Jessica Marshall+FollowNew Grads’ Salary Dreams vs. RealityCollege grads are shooting for $100k+ starting salaries, but reality check: last year’s grads only pulled in about $68k on average. Engineering majors get the highest offers, while communications majors are at the lower end. Add in student loan confusion and a shaky job market, and it’s a tough scene for the Class of 2025. Anyone else remember thinking their first job would make them rich? #CareerReality #NewGrads #SalaryExpectations #StudentLoans #JobMarket #Education42Share
Kevin Nicholson+FollowTrain Driver Life: Not What You Think!Everyone thinks train drivers have it easy (hello, £70k salary!), but the reality? Wildly different. You need laser focus, pass tough tests, and survive 3am starts. Plus, the job’s so demanding that most new drivers are ex-cops or firefighters! Now, 18-year-olds can apply, but with a huge rulebook and crazy hours, it’s no walk in the park. Next time your train’s late, maybe cut the driver some slack! #TrainLife #CareerReality #UKRail #WorkTruths #GenZJobs #Transportation5116Share
