Nothing breaks my morale faster than sending out endless copies of job applications just to be ghosted. Or at best going to endless rounds of interviews that just waste my time

​The worst offender was when a company tried to send me to a random street because that was supposedly the retail store that needed people. I looked it up on Google Maps and that store didn't even exist

​I went to the store in person and the manager gave me a random street for the "retail store"

​I called the recruiter to figure it out, and they insisted the manager's store was the one hiring

Once I pointed out that the manager sent me somewhere else and the other street didn't exist they literally said "Excuse me for one moment" and ghosted me forever
