I am in a bit of a state of distress right now because this job I got recently?

It's pretty much Joever already. I've been having immense technical issues with the website. I have contacted support and received no help. I am now facing an issue that might risk me getting booted (at no fault of my own) simply because no support has been provided.

To be fair, at the very fucking least, I didn't put much hope in this shit, so I'm not terribly disappointed. I knew it wasn't going to amount to much.

Really, I want to put my energy in showing up to this in-person interview I have tomorrow for this job that I actually have a referral for. It certainly would be a more stable position, but this shit is just causing me more issues. I also have a shitload of other interviews to attend still. I never stopped applying because I knew this wasn't gonna be worth shit.

I did do some work so I'll get a minor payout maybe, but this job is not going to be something I can maintain.

I'm still really fucking pissed, honestly, so I might need a fucking moment.

I passed the training! Also, thankfully, it's a paid training, so I will be compensated for about an hour worth of work for it.

However, to be honest, I am not holding a lot of confidence that this job is a permanent solution to my worries. Though it differs from a lot of these kinds of job insofar as I get to interact with real people and experience more direct feedback from a supervisor and all that jazz, this job is still a more contract kind of freelancing job. For that reason, it won't provide the same level of security as a typical 9 to 5 at an office. I can work as many hours as I want, but I'm not quite sure how much work will be available to me yet. Some people have stated that they work this full-time from the little I've read, but I've also heard that some people got removed from the job without explanation.

I still have quite a lot of interviews to go to next week. I never cancelled them because I'm really not terribly confident that this is the the job, but only time can tell how stable this position will end up being. Regardless, even if the job proves itself to be an effective source of income, I won't stop my job hunt. At best, I will see it as a temporary means of giving me some stability, but ideally, I'd be able to push it to side hustle status and work a regular scheduled full-time job in addition to it.

So, is the job hunt still on? Yes.

Might this give me extra breathing room, though? Most likely yes.

If what these people are saying about "being removed without explanation" is true, I can only hope it does not happen to me.

 

The onboarding for the job is complete. The last thing I'd have to do is complete some paid training (which includes testing that I could either pass or fail). I got to complete it within a week. I am waiting for me to feel in the proper headspace to do it so that I put my best into it, and that will likely be either sometime today or on the weekend.

Got onboarding for another job coming up TODAY! I interviewed and was offered it on the spot! HOWEVER, I don't think this is quite the end, so I'll keep you all posted on exactly what happens, of course. Let us first make sure that this is truly secured.

Yep... to be clear, the test is a load test. It consists of a bunch of people being in a Google Meet call, and I have to share my screen and play four 1080p YouTube videos at once as there are 9 other people in the call to put a lot of pressure on my processor.

Unfortunately, in the process, my CPU has a utilization of around 90% for the most part, and they say, for that reason, it didn't pass the test.

For this reason, I'll have to move on from trying with this job, but at least I got this far.

I was going through a whole process for this remote position where I had to verify if my device met their hardware requirements, and it doesn't... meaning that the only thing preventing me from getting this job was literally just not having good enough equipment, as the hiring manager confirmed we would start the onboarding process immediately so long as my hardware met the requirements.

Ugh.

I usually would have a lot to say, but something feels extremely eerie about literally being this close. I can't say much else.

The only way I can really undo this is to get a new PC within 30 days, which is not really an option for me, so I just gotta move on.

Update: Through some power settings, I manage to bump up the processor speed. I reached back out to the recruiter to see if we can proceed. I will let you all know how this goes.

 

Going to a lot of interviews... if I am lucky, I'm able to go to two in one day at times. For this, I need to reload my bus card.

Any and all help is tremendously appreciated, even if not the goal
