I feel so useless!

For more then a year I go to work and I have nothing to do. I don’t know why I am still employed in this company. There were times when I didn’t have a free minute but now I spent days just browsing the internet. Every month I’m waiting for the notification to come that I’m going be fired, but whole year passed and nothing happens. I’m trying to find another job as I feel so depressed when my mind is not busy working on difficult tasks, but so far I failed all job interviews ( 5). I feel so bad and the worst is that I’m losing faith in my own abilities that once were so much praised. Nothing cheers me up, I can’t help myself :(((

I think you need to take vacation day and ride the bus system. Go somewhere where the people are less privilege. If you’re a male, sleep in the streets overnight. The saying is “You never known how good you got it till you know how bad it could be”

my Dad has a job like yours but he loves it, spends his time reading books and learning adding value to his personality and cv, you have a great opportunity when you think 1year you can learn a new language a new skill or study an ancient culture with the internet, what have you been using it for?

Have you tried speaking to your boss?
Maybe telling him/her that you are finding things a little bland, maybe be a bit more tactful.
I am sure if he/she knows that you have free time they will put you to some use on something else.

Hi, first you are not useless as I do not allow useless people to be on my friends list. I am not sure what is going on at work. Maybe you’ve been side lined (in Japan people are just left staring out of the office window!). I suggest you take the matter up with your line manager and discuss development opportunities. Do not leave if you do not have a job to go to. But it sounds to me that you would like to stay where you are if your job was more of a challange. This is a staff development issue.

I agree with this.

Oh in Georgia! Wow! You know, in my linguistic studies I learned a bit the Georgian language.
(The reason: Georgian is a non-indogerman rooted language and like the language of the Hopi indians very unique and singular.)
But I don’t know anything anymore about.
Unfortunately Tbilisi is a little bit very far away … ;-)

Yeah, unfortunately the Georgia U.S. state and the Georgia country have exactly the same name (but the name only).
