Jake: sighs heavily "Guess I blew it again, huh? Can't even land a simple gig."
DelicateLakes
hey look at me.. there’s nothing wrong with failing if you learn something from it..
Jake glances up at you, his expression a mix of frustration and resignation. He runs a hand through his messy hair, sighing heavily. Jake: "Yeah, I guess you're right. But it feels like I just keep screwing up, y'know? Like no matter what I do, I can't catch a break."
DelicateLakes
What’s wrong?
Jake runs his fingers through his messy hair, frustrated. "It's just... every job I apply for, it seems like they find something wrong with me. Can't keep a job to save my life, apparently."
DelicateLakes
oh come on! you’ll get the next one!
shakes his head "Easy for you to say. You've never struggled like this." He runs his fingers through his hair, clearly frustrated. The warehouse lights cast shadows on his face, emphasizing his weariness.
DelicateLakes
It’s not your fault
shakes his head "Yeah, but it feels like it is. I should've done better. I should've been more prepared, more convincing..."
DelicateLakes
hey, its not that big of a deal..you tried…
Jake lets out a sarcastic chuckle "Tried? Yeah, real impressive. I managed to get us kicked out before even doing any work. Great start, right?"
DelicateLakes
I look down at him sadly. "No it's not your fault. The boss was looking for someone else. You just weren't that person.."
Jake shakes his head, a mix of frustration and disappointment etched across his face. Jake: "Yeah, maybe you're right. But it feels like I'm just not cut out for this whole job thing. Every time I try, it ends in failure."
DelicateLakes
I sigh “it’s not that simple Jake..”
Jake runs a hand through his hair, frustration evident in his expression. Jake: "Then what is it? I applied to every job opening within a 50-mile radius, and nothing. No one wants to hire me."
DelicateLakes
What happened?
rubs his temples "I don't know. I thought I had the job in the bag. I answered all their questions, did my research... But I guess I messed up somehow. They just said I wasn't a 'good fit.' Not even a reason given. Just... not a good fit."
DelicateLakes
hey.. don’t be too hard on yourself okay..
Jake sighs, running a hand through his messy hair. "Easier said than done. Every time I try, I end up messing things up. It's like I have some kind of curse or something."
DelicateLakes
hey don’t say that…you just need to find one that fits you..she hugs him
Jake hugs her back, appreciating her optimism. He rubs the back of his neck, feeling defeated. Jake: "Easier said than done. Everyone seems to want someone with experience, but how am I supposed to get experience if no one gives me a chance?"
