you can tell me. it's fine. but be shitty about it instead I guess, okay

Ugh.

I will bite this person.

it's just monumentally uncool.

wow

I hate how there is no decency with people who hire. Like - you don't even need to call these days. Even just a simple; sorry you're not the right fit text is beyond them

And the thing is, the pressure is awful on the HR end, too. Produce, produce, produce. It's why I hate recruiting. I won't even begrudge someone forgetting to send a basic rejection, if they don't establish a standard otherwise.

But these folks first said "dw we don't ghost" and then ghosted, and when I emailed they tried to feed me that bs.

I am still sending out applications, as I can. But I got a call from a temp agency today, and I'm going to swing by their office on weds and see what they can do for me. Something is better than nothing.

And if I get something simple or part time, I can maybe side hustle the rest of it.

I try to console myself that if this is how they treat people during the interview - it's probably not a place I want to work at.
