I hate my job
It's hard to believe that a year ago I was actually enthusiastic about my current job and employer. Well, over a year in the call center has completely ground me down. Not to mention the two different promotions I've been passed over even though I am literally the TOP PERFORMER in the call center. Like seriously, there's a fucking sign over my head that says that for everyone to see.
Apparently the manager (whose been manager for maybe five months) must hate me though. Which sucks, because all the other supervisors and the director love me, but he's the jackass cock-blocking my promotions while promoting idiots instead. For the last one, the other person who interviewed me with him told me later that multiple people tried to talk him out of NOT offering me a position to no avail. So there's that.
And our HR dept is useless. This company is supposed to be big on internal promoting, but my resume never seems to make it out of the black hole it goes into. I found out from another director that I just bumped into by chance that she never even knew there were internal candidates for a position that I did apply for, and they ended up hiring externally. WHAT KIND OF BULLSHIT IS THAT??
So... hate. Also, morale in the call center is pretty much THE WORST. This is my second most hated job. Ugh.
Well, I never stay anywhere I hate for long so I took a flyer on something and emailed two of the park concessionaires for Yellowstone National Park over a week ago to see if they will be hiring seasonal HR assistants since I have four years of experience processing seasonal hires back when I worked for the City of La's Parks dept, a HUGE seasonal employer.
The first responded immediately to advise that they hire their seasonal HR staff for the winter season, but recommended some other positions I should apply for that are HR related. The other one didn't respond. Until today... with an email telling me that they may be hiring an HR assistant for the 2014 season and if I'm still interested they'd like to see my resume!! AWESOME.
So let's cross our fingers... maybe I will have an interesting summer. lol
