Anyone have any experiences with starting something new during mercury rx?

I am currently job hunting because my contract ended and sadly it had to fall during mercury rx. I have had many experiences of starting new things or signing contracts for new jobs during mercury rx and sadly they never really end well or in the long run something unexpected happens, delays occur etc.

My experiences:

-Got first job during mercury rx as a cashier. Made alot of mistakes in the beginning and almost got fired but boss changed her mind at the last minute. Ended up staying 3 years there but overall, it was a very unhappy 3 years for me.

-Got my first volunteering gig during mercury rx. Originally had to stay 6 months but my job kept interrupting with my volunteer time and eventually I broke the 6 months contract and left. Staff was not happy about it.

-Next job got hired in the hotel industry during merc. rx. At first there were delays and major confusion, the manager's native language was different which created huge communication barriers and she was disorganized. Very unexpected schedule: some weeks there were 0 hours and other weeks I would work 50 hours a week. Eventually walked out in the middle of my shift because of disorganization from management, very understaffed making me work alone during busy nights. It ended really badly.

-Signed up for college orientation during rx mode, and it later got cancelled by the counselor.

When I look back, I can see that things I started during merc rx. were never really 'successful'. I'm starting to think that maybe I should slow down with my current job hunt (I used to have the mentality of 'retrogrades won't stop me').

I noticed that merc. rx affects more my professional and school life. My personal life is not very affected by it.

What are your experiences?

Not sure if i ever started a job on mercury rx...but my experiences with this current one is starting to frustrate me lol

just the little things:

i got my right lower molar pulled last week due to the fact that i never fixed a filling that fell off awhile ago. so the tooth got infected. i had to go through the uncomfortableness of the healing bits, and not able to eat specific foods etc.

i feel like so cranky the last few days, and i don't even have my period lol. i just want to throw stuff at the wall or people LOL

I thought i had met someone with this retrograde in my 5th house. In fact, I thought I met two people that I liked.

In reality however something felt "off" with both. And I abruptly ended contact with both.

In my head,I was wondering;"What the hell is wrong with me?" Because I am not usually like this.

It could be the retrograde.Or I am just a d*** Plain and simple.

Oh bingo, I just checked one job that went real bad real fast and it turns out I started it during merc retrograde.

And I mean the company chased me, I had to cut my vacation short to accommodate them, the pay was fantastic. However there was a constant delay with getting a contract from them. And a sales exec I was supposed to work closely with, as peers, was sabotaging me from the day 1. I mean it was so bad I was crying in the bathroom every day, and that is so unlike me. I know he felt threatened, so I tried to build a bridge of understanding and cooperation, but he was not interested period. My boss tried mediating but it didn't help much, so I decided to walk away. I was there TWO months.

I will never ever take a job during merc rx so god help me.

Dont know what to tell you, some astrologers advise to see if you can get in contact with previous employers or companies you worked for and get a job with them. That would be ok during Merc rx because it is a continuation of a previous relationship.

Good luck !

I try not to start anything new with Mercury Retrograde. Even though I was born in such time, and I find that at these times when Mercury turns backwards I have many new ideas.
