I always recommend entry level receptionist for really ANYTHING that interests you. Health Spa, car dealerships, Medical field. Depending on the line of work, depends on the type of responsibilities past answering a phone and greeting people.
I have no degree, but have made it to management positions in nearly every “career” I’ve worked by proving myself and moving up. Obviously that doesn’t always happen but, just my thoughts.
Also a lot of entry level positions at larger companies come with school opportunities and advancement programs after being hired. So definitely mention interest in those if you have them.

You could be a substitute paraeducator or paraprofessional at public schools. You don't need a degree for it and can work as little or as many hours as you want.

Calling all lesbians and gays or other.

Curious question (these aren’t my beliefs) if someone didn’t personally agree that it’s morally or religiously okay to be gay but were respectful about your life choices, just simply when asked if the support the gay community they just said personally I don’t agree with it but I respect everyone would that mean you instantly stop talking with them and hate them and get angry or are you cool with people not agreeing with your life style and respect their opinion and just agree to disagree.

I’m fucked

Me and my man had an explosive argument last night. Usually when we argue I’m the one that likes to resolve it straight away and he’s the one that needs time. That being said I like him to “grovel” a little. I hate that I’m wired like this 🫠 our baby is 12 weeks old and we have had unprotected sex… reckless I know but that’s a whole different story about contraception. Anyways I voiced that I have missed my period. Which I do have slight concern about but not majorly. Anyways, he woke up not wanting to speak to me, last night I tried to cuddle him to sleep he wouldn’t have any of it so I woke up fuming. I got an old positive pregnancy picture of mine and sent it to him. He’s now going out of his mind…. Wtf is wrong with me

Everyone at work speaks to me like shit.

At work, the majority of my team and wider colleagues speak down to me. There’s a huge lack of respect towards me. They over explain, they tell me “I’m learning”, and then proceed to offer unsolicited advice about how to do my job. They talk over me and demand I do things, and when I resist they become more forceful in their tone. They sometimes actually take over my work and make decisions they have no place to be making. They even introduced me to external professionals as “our little (insert job title). It’s beyond patronising.

I’m not a trainee, I started as a trainee and people never let me forget that. But I’ve been there 3 years, and I’m more qualified and knowledgeable than many in my team. I’m extremely competent at my job, my manger confirms this and really likes me, and I even won an award and a bonus at an annual employee conference last year for my work as an outstanding employee who goes above and beyond. Only 9 people won awards out of almost 4,000 employees who could have been nominated. I’m just saying this so it’s clear I’m not some incompetent fool.

I can’t understand why people treat me this way. I thought it might be because I can be quite self-deprecating, but today I was wondering if it’s my appearance.

Most people I work with are 40-55 years old. I am late 30s, but look, dress and act a lot younger because I’m immature and don’t have my personal life together. When I tell people my age, 9 times out of 10 they’re very surprised and say they thought I was in my mid twenties. So I was wondering if it’s like a perceived age discrimination thing, even though it’s imaginary because I’m older. What do think it going on here? Has any actual real young person on here faced this by older colleagues where there’s just a huge lack of respect?
