It's 6 months now and had two interviews earlier this month and no response. I am getting so bloody bored, fed up, teary and lost interest in things.
I just want a bloody job.
Friends and family are shocked and disgusted about me not securing any employment. They were shocked and disgusted about my treatment by the store manager's bullying and fuck all has been done about it when I was the 8th colleague to leave due to his behaviour, 6 of us (me included) raised grievances and 2 just quit on the spot. If the manager didn't work at the store, I would be working. There was no vacancies at other stores, so I left.
One person has caused this and a few more at head office decided not to investigate him, even with 6 grievances and customers' complaints when they saw him how the way he spoke to staff was dreadful. The store manager was exactly the same at his previous store managerial role. So why decide to move him to a different store?
Back to the present time. I just want a job as I don't feel any purpose in life if I am not working. Oh the shame of going to the job centre. I was physically sick the last time I visited there. I shouldn't be doing this. Just want to enjoy life, spending my wages on holidays, days out and clothing. I do have supportive parents who pay for my bills etc.
It's the boredom that's getting to me. I have loads of DVDs, books, streaming services etc and can't focus on these at all. Fed up of spending money.
I go to the gym 4-5 times a week and look at charity shops. I would like some tips in how to get more out of my day without feeling tearful.
Before anyone asks, when I apply for jobs and they ask why did I leave I say I wanted a career break as find the job in retail was not challenging enough for me.
