Honestly I was jobless so long and getting rejected I wish they'd just shoot us all. If they want poor people to die they might as well just put us out of our misery instead of watching us suffer.

You can easily find a job, you're just unwilling to lower your standards to something below your station.

Apply at a WalMart. Click that you're able to do a shit ton of jobs. Even ones you don't give a shit about doing like selling jewelry or working in the shoes department or doing deli. Mark down your availability to 24/7 and send it out to every WalMart you can think up off the top of your head, and then neighbors of those WalMarts.

Don't do the survey. It's a trap. You don't actually even have to do it. I fucking didn't and got hired on immediately. If there's a WalMart being developed in a neighboring city make sure you apply to that shit because their hiring is way fucking lenient.

Failing that there's always Craiglist. I've seen lots for unloading trucks and recruitment drives to work at fast food places on that shit. Finding a job is easy as shit. It's being hired that's the hurdle.
>>
>>28665037

I drew the line at caring for people, knocking on doors and call handling/cold calling, I got more and more desperate as time went on and 5 months after losing my engineering apprenticeship I got a job washing dishes in ikea, was truly worst two weeks of my life, then I got taken for a new KFC store that was opening, then it did shit so went to the McDonald's down the road.

Hang in there lad, it's all about luck. Jobs faires and open days are maybe your best bet

>mfw I found out yesterday that I put the wrong contact number on my resume

I've been using the same resume that I had to make as a project in high school because the info hasn't changed since then and I remembered I put a random number down because I didn't want anyone to know my real number. That's probably why I didn't hear anything back at a Chick fil A that had a "now hiring" sign and they had me fill it out right then and there

At least I like to believe that's the reason

Go back to school.

Or make it clear in your resume objective that you're switching industries. Then the HR people "get it". Otherwise they think you applied to the wrong place.

Human Resources are generally fucktarded and go by a rubric/christmas list. If they can't fulfill the christmas list, you don't get shit.

So be sure they understand that YOU understand that you're not fulfilling their magical, fantasy christmas list of qualifications.

They enrolled me in a pharm tech program. I payed for half of it, and passed all the tests, am registered, but fuck all if pharmacies dont make me anxiolytic as fuck. 240 hours all I did was fill, they didnt teach me shit, I was just "extra help" as they put it. Anytime I tried to learn computer shit in there they just I wasn't "allowed". I can't go into the field with just hours and no exp...you want someone to count your big ass gabapentin? im your guy...

Im just gonna go work at a Target or HEB and see how that goes. If I feel it, i'll apply for the pharmacies in there.

Hope that horrible time was just Walgreens. Dont even get me started on the first pharmacist I had to work for.

>>28671736
I worked as a dishwasher one time, for three days. On my third day, this old fucking loser nigger with grey hair who was lead dishwasher was supposed to walk me through shutting down my area for the night and instead he just fucking left. I didn't know what to do, so I ended up having to get a bartender to help me. Shortly after that I was told it wasn't gonna work out because people had to stay late to help me.

On a serious note, while dishwashing may sound like a shitty job, at least at a smaller place or for events where it's not high tempo like a resteraunt it's a pretty good place to build up self confidence in a work place

no? I went from working at the cafeteria in a sam's club, to teaching myself basic IT support and working for a major oil company making fucking bank within 1 year. no formal education, just a bit of experience and lots of resume embellishment.

I thought I was going to be a minimum wage slave all my life. but it just dawned on me that I had some skills so I put them to use.

who /devilish/ here?

3 years unemployed now. Last six months or so I have pretty much given up. I have applied for low paying entry level jobs. Even the odd times I get an interview, I don't have the confidence to impress.

If i was a fun bubble person but completely incompetent someone would have taken a chance and hired me by now
