    Feeling Got a Job Thinking

    I recently started a new job at a company that I applied to, but after spending about a week there, I'm starting to feel uneasy about the workplace conditions. When I first visited, I noticed that the place seemed to be in rough shape, but I wanted to give it a chance. Now, a week in, many of those same issues are still present. For instance, one of the main pieces of equipment that is crucial for daily operations keeps breaking down, which is concerning. Additionally, I’ve observed that there are very few customers and employees around most of the time, which makes me question the business's health. I've also heard that the air conditioning has been out for months and hasn't been fixed yet. These ongoing problems make me wonder about the overall stability of the company. If they can't maintain essential equipment and facilities, it raises questions about why they're hiring new employees. I'm trying to remain optimistic, but these observations have definitely sparked some worries.

    Feeling Miscellaneous Planning Thinking #

    I recently had a frustrating job interview at a Pizza Hut, and I'm feeling uncertain about whether I should pursue this opportunity. A couple of months ago, my dad passed away, and I'm looking for a job to support my passion project and earn some income. My mom's friend recommended this Pizza Hut and suggested I come in for an interview last Friday at 3 PM. When I arrived, I noticed there was no AC and the place was filled with fans, which I didn't mind too much. However, the interview experience was disappointing. I had to wait for the manager, who was late despite being the one who scheduled the interview. When he finally showed up, he handed me a job application without even looking at my resume. He only asked me about my first job experience at another pizzeria and didn't inquire about my availability or the specific position I was applying for. It felt disrespectful when he started scribbling notes on my resume without bothering to read it. Throughout the interview, he barely made eye contact, which left me feeling undervalued. He didn’t explain what he was looking for in a candidate or discuss the available positions. Now, I'm questioning whether I should even consider taking this job, as I've never experienced such a lack of professionalism in an interview before. I'm reaching out for opinions on what this behavior might indicate about the workplace culture and whether I should just move on to other opportunities.
