Job-Seekers

The world is infuriating. I realize this. There is a great deal of pressure to get a great job straight out of college. Pressure from parents, financial pressures, societal pressures. Pressures from all around! I get it.

But you need to get this: When people are trying to help you, you need to show them the politeness and respect they deserve.

They could just as soon not help you. And then you'll be all alone, against people who have shown respect and decency to people who are only trying to help them. I ask you, where will you be? And I tell you, at a disadvantage.

So, next time you get a piece of news you don't like, take it in stride. Remember, there are millions of jobs out there. And the person trying to help you is only doing their job. Newsflash: Having an interview rescheduled is not the end of the world. At least you've got an interview. Think about those poor people deemed unworthy of even half an hour with a recruiter.

If you don't treat people who are only trying to help you properly. How are you going to be able to function in a workplace as a cohesive unit with your fellow co-worker.

You're not. Go fuck yourself.
