Brief Update

[sea_thoughts]

Work is currently being a pain in the proverbial backside, making me do training that I don't want to do just because I speak more than one language. I need to dust off my CV and find another job.

Sorry to hear that. I know from experience that can be very stressful. *hug* Hang in there.

Thanks!

Sorry to hear that. :(

I feel like employers are taking advantage of this bad economy knowing that you don't have many other places to go work due to downsizing and other assorted layoffs.

Hang in there. You know what they say about doors and windows! (At least that's what I keep telling myself lol)

[sea_thoughts]

They're certainly taking advantage of the other two girls in my training group, who are new to the company and don't understand that they can say 'no'.

I wish I were better at noticing open windows!

Just curious, how many and what languages do you speak?

Also, job searching is such an annoyance.

I speak English (native), French and Spanish. Started learning those in secondary school and carried on through to university. :)

I'm a little late to the party, but wanted to post some virtual *HUGS*! I hope work has started to settle down!

Thank you! I'm actually enjoying the training but I still resent being made to do it.

I go through that sort of resentment quite a bit. You are not alone! <3
