It’s been a year since I was let go from my last full time, permanent job. I’ve never been able to find work since then. I know that if they were to just put me on the desk, I’d do the job well and excel at it. But nobody will do that. Because I can’t network. I’m sorry, but I can’t fake sincerity. I can’t pretend I’m not just talking to someone because I want a job. But this arbitrary thing that has nothing to do with the job is apparently the end-all-be-all of finding work.
It sounds more absurd when I put into actual words lol he just asked me to take data from one source with completely raw data and just feed it into a visualization tool. Just did not care at all about the ETL process whatsoever and keeps telling me to not to let perfect be the enemy of good enough. I’ve never worked in a company like this. Then, when I start to begin building the relationships in question with this garbage/truncating the data to make it usable, I’m absolutely hammered with bullshit ad-hoc requests
But yeah, tell me more about how I’m unemployable because I’m on the spectrum instead of admitting that this is just shit management. I actually thrived during my time at a billion dollar company because they had processes in place to allocate manpower efficiently and thought intently about these “pre-steps” because they’re pretty damn important (who could’ve guessed that there’s a reason why you learn this stuff about project management).
