Over the past year I have found it incredibly difficult as a uni student to find a job. I have applied for countless positions and for almost all of them, I've been rejected before even having an interview. If you've been in the same position as I am then you will understand how disheartening it can be. So when I received an email today saying that a company was interested in me for an interview, I was obviously excited... until I read their full email. It turns out that they want me to operate under my own business/ABN, which means I would need to pay GST to the government, I would need my own public liability and insurance cover (which costs a lot) and a bunch of other stuff.. and the hour wage is $20 per hour. Which basically means I'd be sending 10% of my income to the government, and I'd have to pay a ton of money to be registered as a business owner, and so on and so forth. Ugh, I was so incredibly annoyed! The first non-rejection letter and it's basically just as bad. So I need some positivity today and to focus on the good. Obviously it was just not meant to be and I need to focus on all the good things in my life right now. I had a good work out at the gym too so that got some of my frustration out!
Well, thanks for reading my rant (if you did)!
Go for it but continue looking for jobs! You always need to go through the bad to get the good! :)
