Let it out breh, they hate on me but where else can a nikka vent to? I’ll catch the flack, negs and blocks but the few that give good input make it worth it.
Sorry to hear it but the future may look better elsewhere.
I recently got fired when I just came back from being out due to catching covid from relatives. Something so trivial too. It really ruined my day because the benefits were good af. It’s a blessing in disguise because I was working with demonic miserable cacs despite it being an office job.
I had an interview earlier today and I’ll have another tomorrow morning.
“it’s okay if Connor / Brad doesn’t know anything about IT/software engineering/cyber security. We’ll just have him shadow Dan for the probationary period and pay him 120K.”

Life is absurd. Lean into it.
I hear you. I had a headhunter reach out to me for a job 2 weeks ago that I was more than qualified for and included a substantial pay bump. Interviewed with the company and was progressing through the interviews and then suddenly the company stopped calling me. I'm more than pissed right now because they reached out to me, I didn't reach out to them.
Shake it off and just plan for the get back.

Nah, when a door closes, you open that shyt and try to get in again. That's how doors work.
Keep grinding, keep trying, OP.

Job Is Finished
On one hand I’m telling you not to feel bad about the job because you may find something even better and worthwhile because of this temporary setback.
On the other hand don’t let a job dictate your worth as a man/human being. I’m sure your family, friends and loved ones have been and continue to be positively impacted by having you in their lives. What you do for a living shouldn’t determine your self worth.
On another note, it probably didn’t have anything to do with you since people just give jobs to who they know sometimes as well.
Also word of advice…don’t let people in on your plans until after you’ve accomplished them…you’ll have a higher success rate.
Oh we believe that. We just know how they get intimidated by smart straight successful black man.
Same shyt happened to me long time ago. Was trying to get my life together and had a GREAT interview thought I had it locked up was even bragging to people.
i was shocked and a little panicked when i didn't get it. A big group of friends were moving to the same city i felt like the odd man out. I started applying in KC instead and eventually had another great interview and ended up in an even better position.
It'll all work out, you just might have to make some adjustments.

1) It seems like you put way too much emotion into the company(job). You don’t have any other outlets outside of here?
2)I can tell you’ve become complacent at this company for the decision to affect you this much. I’ve actually been in that position, was with a company 5 years. The most knowledgeable there & did the most work. Could never move up & felt a way about it. The last promotion I didn’t get sent me over & other workers could tell I was aggy. Realized I had allowed myself to become complacent at the company. Applied outward and I been good ever since. My pay that first year I left was 15k more than what I was making.
Seem like you need to move on physically & mentally. You can’t allow your work to become your life as at some point work will end first. Go lift some weights to get that stress of ya

Is it a position which will come up again or a once every ten years type of position.
Sounds like they lost out if you had that much passion and dedication to it breh.
I would say sit in the disappointment for the moment and deal with it, reflect on what went well and what needs to be improved on (possibly ask for feedback?)
Ultimately if your disappointed it may be time to look elsewhere and take is as a sign that you may do better in a different company .
This is a part of growing breh you will get over it and develop from it and that's the main thing.
