I might be getting a new job which is better in every way. Only a couple people know about it.
Edit: I didn't get the job. I am not taking it well.
Hey!! Congrats!!! That's really nice!!!! What will you do in this new job?
Reception, with some managerial responsibilities. There's room to move up.
I have a Bachelor's in Game Programming. The world doesn't need another game programmer right now, but my experience managing projects came in handy.
I currently work in grocery, min wage, as a janitor/stocker.
Nice!!! Not only is this a nice job it also gives you contacts, something that can be really really powerful when looking for a new job as some people can just make a new position for you, literally how my dad went from a reception worker to his accounting job when he graduated!! I wish you a great job and that things work out amazingly for you!!!
Holy shit awesome man! Even if it doesn't pan out don't lose hope! I got rejected on 3 different positions and thought I was just not the cut. 7 years later after landing the 4th and I'm a completely different person. NEVER give up! You and your future are worth it. I promise.
