i posted about passing on a job offer a few weeks ago. I didn’t really pass on it, I accepted but told them that the work wasn’t what i really wanted to do, and they decided to rescind the offer. same thing

jobs are so scarce, I definitely should have just said nothing and sign the contract. They would drop me any time they wanted, so I can leave any time I want too. i just couldn’t commit to something i thought would make me miserable.

At the time I didn’t think I could even tolerate the job. Got some space to think properly and I just don’t think that’s true any more. I can tolerate it fine. Work environment is fine, pay is fine, just the work wasnt what i wanted to focus on. These are all just tech white collar jobs anyways, what was i hesitating for. motherfucker

I’ve got some clarity now, i’ll move on. sometimes i just hate myself

    Kinda the sad truth of capitalism. You can and should try for a job you care about but you will probably have to settle for one you tolerate.
