>Folks are getting pissed at me since I'm not really doing anything
>"Yeah that's fair I'll get a job"
>Send out my resumes everywhere, never get a response back
>Managed to get an interview at a restaurant
>Never hear back
>Keep sending out resumes
>Not getting any emails back from anywhere
>Fuck it I'll go apply at Mcdonalds and other fast food places, they hire everyone
>Don't even get a fucking email back
>I start feeling worse and worse
>Last ditch attempt to get a job
>Apply to grocery store that hires everyone
>Literally a 100% acceptance rate unless theres something really wrong with you
>Downies get hired there I should get a job there no problem
>Get an interview and I feel great
>Make sure I look perfect for it, get my hair cut, prepare some nice clothes the night before
>Wake up super early so I'm ready for the interview
>I get there and think I do pretty good
>Basic questions "Why do you wanna work her" "What are you doing with your life" etc
>Genuinely think I answer them great the guy seems happy with my interview and says he'll get back to me soon
>He says I have a great chance at getting the job
>get an email today going "Hey we don't want you working here sorry"
>wtf
>Loose all motivation to do anything
>stay in my bed all day, no energy for anything
>feelsbadman

what the fuck should I do man, I've been looking for jobs all year, I should have something but I dont. 2 places that basically have a 100% acceptance rate turn me down. I think I'm a great worker, I stay in my lane, get my job done without fussing, and stay proactive. I have no motivation to do anything anymore, considering just rotting away in my room till my parents kick me out or I throw myself of a building, whichever comes first

didn't get a degree since I graduated from highschool, wanted to get a job all year so I could save up money for a college course. I've also been applying to factories but no luck

Enter a program that pipelines you into a guaranteed career. Finishing a high school degree means fucking nothing nowadays. You're qualified to piss n' shit. Even most bachelors are worthless if it ain't STEM. Anyway, find a vocation that you can realistically see yourself doing and then just follow the steps necessary to do it. Renewable energy is a booming sector in lots of places too. Used to have a friend that worked on those massive wind turbines for a living. Medicine is great, that's what I picked. I work night shifts in a hospital laboratory and am comfortably compensated.

Don't you guys have socialism or something in Australia? No cheap uni? I live in the USA and the only reason I got to go to college was because I had a free ride on scholarships. My broke parents were NOT paying for that lmao. If you hit rock bottom then join the military.
