When I tell someone to do something and they tell me they will but then they don't. -_-;

The fact that I put in an application to a place call them back for over a month (when the person said they would call me back and never did) and finally give up because I feel the place is just jerking me around. (We have two other people we are interviewing, I'll call you back if they don't work out.)

Husband puts in application and gets interview within 2 days without even having to call them once.

apparently the place is constantly hiring, so maybe I don't want to work there after all.?

I've had that. Sometimes they're either a) too chicken-shit to say that they aren't interested or b) they string you along as a "just in-case."? Probably not worth it, I'd say.

Yeah, sounds like they just use their employees and then when they're done, they just tell you to pack your bags and go. Doesn't sound like a job that's worth it and it's not very stable either. You might wanna go for one that doesn't look for excuses just to fire you or give you panic attacks that tomorrow might be your last day.

Yeah, that sucks :( It's one of those things, though, that should remain in little things - workplaces like that aren't worth being frustrated over .__.

I actually hate the process of job-searching in general and am very very happy I haven't had to do it for a while. Something about it is just soul-sucking. Last time I had to actively do it, the rejections and lame behaviour of recruiters pretty much helped put me into a depression x__x

I really wish people would have more guts to just say "no", that always frustrated me about job hunting.?? but it sounded like I was a "just in case" back up truthfully. Still no one likes being strung along.

Naw I don't think it's people getting fired, more like people quitting due to their incompetence.?? it's retail, and if they are constantly hiring (instead of seasonally) then I really gotta wonder about how well they can keep employees happy, or at least semi-satisfied. Also, odd that they would be seasonally hiring this late in the season O.o most places have already filled their jobs.

Unfortunately most of the places that seem to be hiring that I'm "qualified for" are a good 30 min commute one way, and the amount they would pay vs the amount I'd be spending on gas is not worth even applying.


Thanks everyone, having feedback helps to feel better.

Speaking from experience in retail, it's people quitting because the job is shitty, not that they're incompetent. It's more likely that they got a better job. The only people that keep a job in retail are those that have no other options for the time-being. >_>
