It's bad here too. Its sucks because life doesn't have to be hard, its optional. The people who want us to be miserable are also miserable. Does it make any sense?

Seriously though, I've had the police called on me at work twice, 6 jobs didn't pay me, fired on day one for performance issues (I didn't even have a computer lol), two jobs canceled on me after quitting my job for it, spending time and money for an interview that didn't show up, computer breaking down and being late and job rescinded, another job rescinded when I negotiated pay, 2 employers stealing my data by offering me a job, another job ghosting me after I went through the entire process of onboarding and I knew they would (the boss was the meanest Karen I ever met). This could not be real.

Seeking advice: I am a young sales consultant and sales engineer working for a tech startup company. I have 6 years of sales experience. And I have been helping run my family business for the past 10 years. I was intially interviewed for a senior account executive position at a $70k offer. Instead they told me I needed more training and hired me as a Junior account executive at a $50k salary + commission. Today is my 6th month mark and I have done very well. And no talks of a promotion / raise..

Hi everyone! First time posting here. I am in a good sales role at my current company but it’s my first solid AE role in the tech industry. I am interested in exploring other opportunities as I know there are a lot out there, but is anyone else worried about the current economic state? I’m worried that if I find a new position for a new company and the economy going to sh** that I am worried about job security. Anyone else feel this way?

I’ve had a bad case of work anxiety ever since I started a new job ~7 months ago. The adjustment was ROUGH. I was making mistake after mistake. I powered through and somehow got glowing reviews at year end, with people saying I’ve moved past that point.
