I want to eat. I want to continue to live in my house. I need my paycheck. I wish there were more noble motivations, but in the end, if I didn't need this job to survive... I wouldn't be here.

That’s another way of thinking about it. Thank you!

I know this is going to sound nutty but I have pics of my babies on my desk. That's the only motivation I need to get me through. Everything I do is to make their lives better.

That’s so cute! I love it!

Mine is a picture of my friends in Switzerland and Norway. Never been there and I missed the trip with them because I just started my job this year. So I am working really hard so I can hit on that goal and come with them on the their next trip. Lol.

Very nice! Pictures of friends/family is a good one.

It’s very discouraging to continuously receive these rejection emails. With 9 years of supply chain experience, I am not sure why I would not be able to at least get an interview for entry level roles that require no experience. Not just this one pictured but others as well. I’ve applied to maybe 60 positions since May, both mid level and “entry” and no interviews. I’ve had my resume professionally re-written twice. Not sure where the disconnect is. Anyone else going through this same thing?
