Once again, I’m frustrated with my job. I have skills, but I don’t fit into a cookie cutter position. Where do I go? Which company? What do I do? Uggh

I’ve been coming home completely drained from the stress at work that I don’t feel like doing anything. Geez, one vlog in a week. That sucks!

Christie advises that CCAC is hiring in a variety of positions right, and it appears to be a very dynamic place based on her experiences there so far.
Regarding job experiences, I can relate in some regards - my job will never go beyond my current level. That said, I’m lucky that due to the nature of it, there is a great deal of variety that keeps it dynamic despite the fact that it’s still the same old thing underneath a new facade every day.
I also have the ability to switch jobs every year to further change things.
That said, in the overall scheme of things though, I know that there’s virtually no chance of me ever moving into a management or supervisory position, and I also find a great deal of frustration like yourself in my overall lack of ability to offer anything meaningful in regards to direction or suggestion to the company - they simply discount most of us.
I’m lucky enough in that I remain mostly satisfied despite all of the downsides, and the financial and job-quality aspects outweigh the negatives - at least at my current company.

Thanks Mark.
Hey Ken, yah… my email address isn’t really visual anywhere on the sight. I’ll have to change that.
