I feel like I don’t belong at my job and my department. I feel like everyone in my department has an important part that they play but me. They get recognized, their opinions are heard and they’re given responsibilities that contribute positively to what they do at work. I, on the other hand, am assigned the most insignificant jobs and I’m never taken seriously.

I tried applying for a new supervisor vacant and they rejected me. I feel exhausted because I try my best and I work really hard but everyone just underestimates me and puts me aside. I feel miserable and bitter towards everyone here. I feel terrible.

Please give me some advice on how to handle this

Hi everyone! I recently graduated from IE a few months ago and I’m trying to figure out what I should specialize in.

I’ve been working in HSE for over 3 years now but the experience has been so discouraging with my fellow colleagues that I want to grow apart from it and do something else. I’ve been thinking about SCM and Logistics but the job market in my country is pretty tough for anything I choose. I’ve also thought about Quality Management and getting some Lean Six Sigma certifications as well as an MBA but I don’t know how to get into it.

What specializations would you recommend? How can I figure out what to do? Your help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

I’ve been trying to seek advice on different communities but everything I post keep on getting deleted by Reddit’s filters?

I checked and I don’t think I seem to be infringing the rules of the subs that I’ve been trying to post on. Why does this happen?

I was rejected from a position at my current job and I feel terrible. It was my last shot at trying to improve my professional situation at this job but this rejection has been a message that I’m not enough or appreciated here. I’ve grown apart from my coworkers and I’ve been participating less in conversations and overall interactions that are not part of my assigned duties as a way of detachment for when I’m ready to leave.

I’ve been really bitter these past few days but I feel ridiculous because I’m sabotaging myself by having such a bad attitude. I have a plan to leave in the next months since I can’t leave right away but in the meantime, I can’t afford to keep being so miserable. I’ve had enough.

I need advice on how to navigate these feelings and suggestions on how to work my way around the workplace until I can leave.

The company I currently work for recently opened up a new vacant for a supervisor position. Even though I've been very unsatisfied working there for a long while now, to the point where I've already been working out a plan to quit and get a different job, I decided to apply for the position to try and give it out one last chance to hopefully improve and boost my career, and achieve professional growth in an area where I've had significant and valuable experience relevant to the job description.

I applied knowing that it was highly unlikely that I'd be picked for numerous reasons so I wouldn't get my hopes up that anything was actually going to happen, doing it mainly as a way to show them that I was interested in growing as a professional and as a way to challenge and showcase myself. I thought they weren't even going to look at my resumé but then came a call, and then came an interview, then another arranged interview that was cancelled with no explanation (foreshadowing), and then silence... until today when I finally got the email telling me what I had expected to be told right after the first call: they wouldn't be moving on. I deleted everything right away so I wouldn't be reminded of such humiliating and discouraging episode. It hurt reading it even though I expected it because it confirmed what I had been assuming for so long: that they don't see any worth in me. I know I'm not entitled to anything and there's plenty of reasons as to why someone else might be a better choice, but I've been neglected and overlooked for so long that I can't take it anymore. The only path now is to quit, so I'm working out a plan to progressively detach from this job until I can quit for good because I can't leave right away.

I'd appreciate any advice on how to handle feeling so let down by this and strategies to work my way around my duties while I'm still there. while also growing apart from everyone at that job.

Thank you for your time. I really appreciate it
