So I was in the same job for 10 years, working my way up from entry level to management. With the first Lockdown, we were all made redundant from my place of work.
It took me 6 months of looking for a job, a few interviews in which I were pipped at the post. I finally found something, in the same line of work I did before, but entry level. At the interview they asked how I felt about going back to down to the entry level position available and at that point, I just wanted back into the industry so I said it was fine.
Because of the Covid and uncertainty of my industry, I have now been dismissed from my second job. I'm so upset. I never saw myself going back to entry level anyway but was pleased to have a routine again and be back to work. I'm single and in my 30s, so work is all I have.
It really sucks. I feel like i'm never going to find a decent job at my old level again. It just doesn't appear to be avaliable anywhere.
Has anybody else been in this position and how are you coping?
After getting the news I was being laid off again, i'm very beside myself and don't feel too positive for 2021.
