    When I was working the dorm cafeterias back in university, there would be student supervisor positions that open frequently. I applied several times and went through a few interviews, but never gotten the position while all my other friends were able to, even ones working less time than me. I started to feel self doubt, and it got worse when I got a call from one of the managers saying how one of my shifts I'll be transferred because my work performance seems unsatisfactory. Wasn't sure why that was the case since everyone has been saying I've been doing a good job and such. Despite all that, I made the best out of the situation until it was close for me to graduate.

    I'm not sure if I really learned anything from this except sometimes you thought you're qualified while someone else don't and it happens.
     
    Every day at my job I run into people who make me question my assumptions about what constitutes common sense and common knowledge.

    Yesterday a guy walks through the door and sits in a chair near my desk. I ask if I can help. He says he's waiting for so-and-so. I say, oh so-and-so's office is on the other side of the building. Clearly, he just had the wrong room, right? Wrong. Back and forth for a few minutes and I realize that he just thought it would be okay for him to come to any random office and wait there and whoever would come find him.

    [PokeCommunity.com] At least, I tried.
     
    Every single moment of my daily life is this. And I really am trying to be serious, which is... sad.
     
    I honestly very rarely try anymore because in the past I failed at everything regardless, even if that isn't the case anymore.

    So when I actually really try hard, it is really crushing if I fail... Like the last exam I had...
     
    Well, I gave up trying to mend relationships due to the humiliating defeat suffered previously. At least I can say I left it all on the field. Meh.
     
    Not really because I just...tend to give up really easily lols. Like as soon as I sense something's about to go wrong I just nope.
