So here's my dilemma and I'm gonna just vent for a bit.

Ever had a job that doesn't pay you enough for the hard work you do?
Ever had a boss/supervisor that rewards others while criticizing you?
Ever work for a company that could care less for your livelyhood?

Then one day, you get tired of being used and abused, so you start applying to an array of positions. You are a good person, professional, and know how to be a good interviewee (sp?). Your references are good, your work history solid, and your skills are appropriate. You get that promising lead, that turns into an ever promising interview, whereas afterward your "inside man" assures you that the company is very impressed and will offer you the position, for everyone is excited and impressed with you. Then one day goes by and they aact as if you never existed!! WTF?? Two interviews, credit/background/drug checks, and hours of time...all for nothing!!! So now I am here. Back at square one. And the worst part is, I don't have a clue as to what happened!!! Let me tell you, such a rejection does a number on one's self esteem.

/end rant

i'm sorry... what field are you looking for a job in?

I don't care. I was switching industries. I am still in college, so what ever's clever. I have oodles of retail management exp. (which was what I was going for), in addition to other fields of work.

consider it a blessing. if they can so easily shaft you like that, I can only imagine what they do to their own employees.
