Hello, I have received an offer from Southwest Airlines as a Associate Technology Analyst with their direct college hire program. Will be graduating in May with a degree in MIS and also have internships experience as a Business Systems analyst intern. The salary compensation started off at 66,500 but was looking for the 75k range and they got back to me saying the best they can do is 68,500. They also have a 401k company match up to 9.3%. Do you think this is a solid offer for this job market?

Things can and DO get better when you get help. Reach out to a cognitive behavioral therapist. I’ve done this twice over my career and it was a lifesaver. Stay strong and know that you’re not alone.
when window of tolerance is so narrow, the smallest thing shatters the glass it feels like such a vicious cycle - frustration over the small thing that started the spiral. I’m there now, spiraling with you - so many are! Talking and knowing that this is normal, that nothing is normal is so helpful. The ultimate hurt and frustration is the glassy faces of the upper ranks when you’re breaking inside.
I’ve started meditation using an app and I far less fragile vs before. I was exactly the same way and sometimes still am. But now I can breathe and let it pass. Or focus on what to do about it vs getting back on the spiral. I feel you. I really do. You are all of us right now I think. I also reached out to EAP and got a therapist I end each work week with. So I can refill my tank for the weekend and my kids. Has helped me immensely.
