I’ve found that most companies do the opposite advertising a higher wage than they are willing to offer to attract high caliber candidates. They let this farce continue all the way to the offer stage wasting everyone’s time. In an ideal world we wouldn’t have to play any games at all.

Dear Ben, the moment I was writing this comment, I was in exactly the same situation and the so called “when death feels like a good option” feeling you were in. “self-doubt if you should even exist anymore” are the words exactly my fractured heart was telling me. Guess what happened, I just googled by the key word “What to do when it feels death” and I found your extra-ordinary message and I had no chance but simply sat in amazement.

Ben,
I understand what you went through. I am there now. But I am mush older. Tomorrow hardly seems like an option. Despite everyone “getting” what we want to do….we…cannot fund…we have spent…..we are seemingly done. I am done. I am in that proverbial room and the exit I crave is to go where Ilya went…now.

I want no more than to be at peace….I am part of the diaspora…and now I fell that I am truly alone and exiled beyond even that….
