The company I worked for abruptly went out of business. I applied everywhere I could for a month. After 1.5 months I got an offer, but it was for $20K less than what I had spent 7 years working myself up to!! I took the job so that I could pay my bills and save a little, I thought maybe I could play it cool and put time into it. But after 3 months I hate this job and frankly I’m underpaid for my degree and experience.
I guess I was thinking I could stay at this job for 6 to 12 months and make big commission to bring myself back to what I was making. But I’m simply u happy at this job, and I didn’t think I would feel that way.
I just want to walk in there and quit but I can’t because I need to pay my bills and save a little.
But the fact that I literally spent years working my way up only to lose it all is destroying me inside. All the hard work, all the late nights, all the thinking that if I just get the experience I Will be good, all the arguments with the ex girlfriend about money, all for NOTHING. Only to regress back $20K, so what now??? What should I do? What would you do?
