When I came back to Jamaica, I saw a job that was my absolute dream job! They wanted A, B, and C, with D, and E also being "desirable". I had all of them. And direct experience with all! It was an entry level position and I thanked God it opened up when I came. So, I applied. https://twitter.com/ambrosia_omG/status/1279976317753188353

My sisten called me a few weeks later to ask me where I was because we could go to lunch or drinks after. I asked her what she meant. She said when the interview was done I should come see her.

Interviews were going on and I couldn't even get a call back...

much less and interview. It broke my freaking heart. Job hunting is an emotional wringer we don't talk about enough.

Later it was explained to me that since my boss didn't have those qualifications, I sure as hell wasn't going to get it.
