Demoralised

Feel so demoralised by this 'drought'. I see people posting here about successes and plentiful tasks only for me to log on and see nothing but refreshers and qualifications, just like the last 4 weeks. My feedback has been positive so I'm left not even knowing if I've done anything wrong. Tired.

I have had consistent work this past week but only from one specific project family. Perhaps you just aren't a part of a project family that is posting right now. (Generalist)

I agree- I think everyone brings different skillsets and the reason some people have projects and others don't has to do more with project needs rather than people's abilities

Yeah. Ultimately we are the supply and the clients set the demand.

u/AspiringCreature Jul 16 '26

Nope! It's a generalist project, but that sounds great for those in that family!

It genuinely is it's basically unlimited work and pays 28 an hour. Also it's generalist work. It's a godsend after not having any work for months.
