There’s a community centre that became a hotbed for drug use. They’re not geared towards this and are actually for marginalized communities. This wouldn’t be so much of an issue if this same community centre didn’t have a childcare centre at the first floor. It’s gotten so bad that some of the washrooms had to be closed off. They regularly find drug paraphernalia like needles and pipes in the washroom that is open to the public.

Kids and the community deserve better than that. I’m compassionate as hell but it’s kinda hard when you realize that small children are exposed to this shit on the daily.

I did some volunteer work. Was told there was an opening for what I was essentially doing already. Job interview went well. Worked my ass off more than I would have. Was told that I didn’t “deliver what they expected” when they never told me what they expected. This was a new manager who is also doing some stuff that the other managers don’t and not in a good way. I’ve been at that place for a while, enough to know how things worked. Dude is the kind of person who wants to “shake things up” without asking why things are done that way and then gets surprised when people don’t like it.

I fucking suspended my job search for a month because of them. Fuck man. It’s also the sort of place where clients are very untrusting so new folks are deemed suspicious until proven otherwise. Clients are vulnerable and don’t want to see someone who obviously doesn’t know how to function in those spaces. It’s one thing to see it from a client’s perspective but a whole other from a jobseekers point of view.

I’m just so fucking tired of job hunting and going through multiple rounds of interviews with folks who don’t even know what they’re doing
