To think a job application isn't that hard?

[Sadhappiness]

My DH is looking to find a new job because he hates his job. He's seen one that he wants but he's spent so much time ranting about the application process. He started to complete the application yesterday morning and then continued yesterday evening once the kids went to bed. He had a massive strop this morning because he didn't finish it last night. (I did offer to take the kids out but he wanted to come with us) This evening he was playing a game on his phone, and I asked if he was going to do the application tonight. He said no, he was too tired. I gave him a bit of a talking to and told him to do it. He did it for a while, with a lot of my help. But he then stopped with it unfinished. This is someone who came into the bathroom this morning while I was showering to tell me how annoyed he was with himself that he didn't complete the application. I just wanted to have a quiet shower. He has now decided to stop with the application unfinished because he's too tired. Is he going to rant at me again in the morning about how he's not disciplined enough to complete the application?

The last time I applied for a job (around a year ago) I sat down at the laptop and just got on with it. Why does this have to be so difficult?

What is getting to me more is the reluctance to do it and then the moaning and bad mood when he doesn't do it. It's always someone else's fault

I wonder if this has anything to do with how much he hates his current job?
Nobody enjoys working with a moaner, especially not one who blames others for what they've not done, and even if he gets something else the pattern could repeat itself

I find them exhausting and draining. I know I can do them, but it is infinitely frustrating to be forced to jump through hoops and re-enter information in their format simply to prove you are willing to invest time, particularly when you know they are going to scan it for not even a few minutes and give you a generic refusal.

I hate them. Yes I can do it, but I hate it.

Did I mention I hate it?
