I know I've got a decently paid and secure job but I'm so unhappy in this work place I'm not sure how much longer I can take it. I'm in an office with one other person where there's no dynamic nor conversation and in short, I'm really lonely. I miss having work friends, people to have lunch with, a quick chat in between work and any kind of social life I've enjoyed in the past when working with other people.
I'm looking for new positions, I've been looking for a year now and aside from one interview, I've only received rejections from my applications. Its so disheartening and really not helping how I feel about work.
I know I should feel good, grateful even for having the job that I do. I work in quite a niche industry and jobs are hard to come by. I'm trying to change direction a bit in my job searches that still use the same skills but still no luck.
I suppose I just wanted a bit of a rant about feeling like this. I'm so jealous of my partner who works with a really nice group of people and are always doing things together. It makes me feel like a right billy-no-mates.
