Its been a whole year of job searching for me. And ive had only two interviews.
Every month ive applied sporadically to places around oakdale and woodbury. Horrible luck. The fact that i dont have my own phone and no liable transportation sucks too. But what sucks the most is my mom constantly on my ass about not trying hard enough to get a job. Keep in mind I have no prevoius work expirience at all. She tell's me she has to tell me to go out and get a job and that i dont try. but when i go out and apply places with out her asking she gets on my ass about something else. I CAN NEVER WIN. So she gives me this feeling of infinate failure and then I just dont want to try anymore. Like, Fuck you Fuck off im going to go be a bum. I really do. It's so annoying to here EVERY DAY (and i am NOT exaggerating, its literally EVERY DAY OF MY LIFE FOR THE PAST YEAR) to here someone bring you down all the time saying you dont try, when ive tried. Not wanting to work at fucking mcdonalds isnt not trying when you applied and fucking philly dawgz in sunray.
AND THE ECONMOY... 40, 50 year olds are getting laid off and competing for regular teen aged jobs. Teenagers are competeting with adults with years of work expierence under their belts!! I've never had a job.
Cmon now...

I agree with you that it couldn't be harder to find work right now. Back in the (my) day, I walked into Menards and was training as a cashier within a week. Nowadays, a position opens up and literally hundreds of people apply. I do not envy you that search. I sympathize with the experience with your Mom; perhaps her fear that you won't find something manifests itself in a negative way of talking to you... I'm not sure. Maybe if you started volunteering somewhere, that could lead to a job there. You'd feel good about yourself, get some experience and it could lead somewhere positive.
i am actualy going to start volunteering at a bike place with jordan hopefully soon!
