I have applied for the same job a couple of times and I keep getting passed up. I am a woman of a particular age, color, and I have two degrees. Yeah I am salty and know I deserve more than what they are giving me.
So a couple of years ago, my kiddo attempted to commit suicide. My boss was aware of what was going on because I told him. I needed him to understand what was going on and I needed grace, which is what they said matter, transparency. Then these jobs became available that I was not good enough for because I had been written up. I watched people come after me, succeeding and moving, people that came after me. And yet, this girl was benched.
I have tried to do everything I could to make myself viable but it is not being seen. They keep choosing the white girl. As if they need any more privilege. I have two degrees and so close to a PhD that I took a pause on because, why would I need that in my role, as some managers say.
So what this comes down to is I am VERY upset.
I have done so much. I have taken claims I shouldn't because I need the experience, right?
I have taken on being a good team player and have lost sleep for shit that doesn't matter.
I am done now. I will not be taking any more claims that do not belong to me. You people can have them. And I will never say this company does anything for people of ethnicity. I am done.
