hiatus 💙💜
just submitted a job application for a full time position in a different library system.
I really don't want to get my hopes up, but I've been wanting to move up to full time since the end of last year, and frankly, I'm getting tired of the way that the higher-ups at my current job have some kind of choke-hold on their employees, and seem to create policies that aren't shaped around employee's well-being. I've noticed this more and more as time goes on, and the higher-ups are the kind of people who are like "sorry, that's just the rules" or basically "you're not allowed to argue with us or we might fire you". I don't tolerate that kind of thing, I don't like feeling like a subordinate and being bossed around. I suppose the new job might not be much better, but I'm feeling a lot more confident now and I'd like to speak up about this kind of thing.
I've applied for three different full-time positions in my current library system, across three different branches, and all three (including my home branch) turned me down. the last two didn't even bother to give me an interview. the system is honestly rigged (seriously, I'm not just saying that to sound funny), I don't know why they bother posting the job opening to other branches when all they're gonna do is promote someone at their own branch. it's a waste my time and it's a tease, especially when they don't even give me a chance to do an interview. and with the limited budget (and thus subpar benefits for a government job) and strict policies and generally somewhat unwelcoming atmosphere that the higher-ups radiate, like, should I even bother continuing to look for a position in this system? no, I'm done.
the library I applied at has good benefits and tuition reimbursement, but like I said, I don't want to get my hopes up considering how many times I've been rejected so far. I'm gonna look and see if any other libraries around are hiring, and are offer tuition reimbursement as well (that's the golden ticket for me, since I want to get my MLIS). until then I'll just keep chugging away at my current job and hope for the best in terms of my future.

it's just frustrating because i always get fixated on something that also has little to no content/fandom so i can't even be fed by others' content either so i'm just stuck waiting for the next fic to be posted or the next artwork to be dropped! i'm so gghhhh >_<
my throat started hurting the other night before i went to bed, and i was hoping i just swallowed wrong or something and it'd feel better when i woke up, but Nope. it thankfully hasn't gotten worse, but it also hasn't gotten better. my mom has it worse with a sore throat And a cough. she was up all night coughing, and i didn't manage to fall asleep until 8am this morning 'cause i struggle to fall asleep whenever something feels uncomfy within my body. and then my stomach started hurting and woke me up less than 3 hours later.
