@Bacon - I'll see you and raise you on that. 31 and unemployed for the last 7 years after I left a truly shitty job, because there's so few vacancies in Britain, those that there are are often taken by EU citizens coming to Britain specifically to get jobs with higher pay than they could ever earn in their own countries (seriously), and being long-term unemployed in Britain basically makes you unemployable too. :(

I guess I'm a member too. Seventeen and haven't had a job yet- I don't even have work papers yet.

Happy Holidays to everyone! Have a great end of the year, and an even better 2015- you all deserve it!

I will be filling out the last few papers on Tuesday and training right after that.

Today... was not a good day. I got dragged to my sixteen-year-old sister's job in clothes stiffer than the pole up a Turian's ass, had to wait for hours before I even got word back from her, then did mindless tedious shit in a foreign environment for a random political thing I didn't give a damn about, and then had to endure her yacking at me at how she was doing me a favor for the car ride home. Next time people tell me to get a life, I'm saying no. Fuck getting a life, fuck whatever the hell I was doing and whoever I was doing it for, fuck the clothes, fuck the mall they came from, fuck everyone involved in this. Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh.

but HOW?

@Endless Sea Well it's over, if that's any consolation.

23, volunteering nine hours a week. Started a Target application today.

You say I am loved, when I don’t feel a thing. You say I am strong, when I think I am weak. You say I am held, when I am falling short.

Applications everyday, seriously I wonder why i even went to university, every research associate job requires either a PHD or high school with a $2000 phlebotomy certificate. The rest just ignore me, meh law of probability one has to say yes.

Hello. I am currently unemployed and have been actively searching for a job for the past few weeks. I've applied to over three dozen jobs, and none of them have hired me.

I currently have 20ish days until my rent is due and essentially no money. If anyone has any advice for getting a job asap when my resume has basically fuck-all on it, even if you aren't sure it'll work, I'd really appreciate it.

No sorry, I don't know how to get a job non-ASAP maybe try to do some odd jobs you get payed for I don't know.

Hi there. I'm 24, with no hope of ever being employed, and constantly told by the government that I'm evil for being out of work. Did three weeks part-time at my local supermarket during the Christmas period, and have had no luck finding anything else since.
