WhimsicalWhale+FollowRejected Again: Feeling Invisible at Every Job I Apply For 😞Lately, every job I apply for seems to end the same way—no response, or a quick rejection. It’s starting to make me question my worth and abilities. I keep seeing the same requirements and feeling like I’ll never measure up. I’m honestly at a loss. My confidence is at an all-time low, and I can’t help but wonder if there’s something wrong with me. Am I missing something obvious, or is the job market just this tough for everyone? If anyone has been through this and come out the other side, I’d really appreciate your advice. How do you stay motivated when it feels like you’re invisible to employers? #JobSearchStruggles #CareerAdvice #FeelingStuck #JobCareer40Share
DuskDolphin+FollowIs This What Success Feels Like? Because It Sure Doesn’t Look Like ItNot long ago, I was thrilled to step into my new role as the youngest manager at our Chicago office. My friends cheered me on, and my boss said I was the perfect fit. But now, I’m starting to wonder if I’m just in over my head. 😬 Every time I try to get my team’s input, I’m met with blank stares or awkward silence. It’s like my words bounce off invisible walls. The only time I get any real attention is when something goes wrong—and then, suddenly, everyone’s looking at me for answers I’m not sure I have. Honestly, I feel like a stranger in my own department. Has anyone else felt completely lost after landing what was supposed to be their dream job? I’d really appreciate any advice or just to know I’m not the only one feeling this way. 🙏 #LeadershipJourney #TeamDynamics #FeelingStuck #JobCareer10Share
GlimmerGlide+FollowIs My Job Just a Fancy Title for Doing Nothing? 🤔I landed what seemed like a dream job in Chicago: great office, friendly colleagues, and a decent paycheck. But here's the catch—my daily task is to scroll through online listings for printer supplies, compare prices, and pass leads to the buying team. That’s it. Eight hours a day, every day. It sounds important, but honestly, I feel like my role is just a dressed-up title for something that adds zero value to society. I’m not learning anything new, and it’s hard to shake the feeling that I’m just wasting time and coffee. Sometimes I wonder if anyone else feels stuck in a job that sounds impressive but feels pointless. Has anyone else dealt with this? How do you cope with the frustration of doing work that feels meaningless? I’d really appreciate some advice or even just to know I’m not alone in this. 😩☕️ #WorkplaceStruggles #CareerAdvice #FeelingStuck #JobCareer203Share
