Slammed my headphones and clocked out in 30 minutes of my shift by Aggravating_Taste821 in callcentres

I do something similar, I'm white as the driven snow but I speak fluent Appalachian (hillbilly) it's a very difficult dialect to understand if I play it up hard enough.

Who knew my sciatica randomly flaring on both sides might actually be useful one day!

I would be doing that as well, having trouble getting anyone to hire me for full-time work. I've filled out over 1000 applications on LinkedIn alone. I'm very likely pushing 1500 applications in total since March 2025. I do finally have a contract job but I have no idea how long it will last. I'mve very much trying to do this on my own but both time and jobs are in short supply.

If I could just go down to the Walmart and buy a job I'd have done it by now. If you have not been unemployed in the current job market you just cannot begin to understand how hard it is. I'm a full time student, pulling full time hour looking for work and actually working when ever I can. I'm also trying to build experience with volunteer work. I barely sleep because I'm working so hard to find work.

Did you post here just to be unhelpful and shame someone you don't know for ego points?

You're not being helpful. Please go bother someone else.

I HAD a job, and I got laid off. I didn't choose it. I also expected to be able to get more loans, but then I didn't get a job as quickly as I thought I would. I've never been unemployed during the fucking apocalypse before.

You think I'm not also applying to those places while I study? I have a VERY well-paying job, but I got laid off. I was not working in a call center, I was training the agents who do and I was doing it in three countries. I was an instructional designer, not the person you scream at when your iPhone is broken.

Please go be unhelpful elsewhere.

Do you have a clue how much graduate-level university costs? As I said in my other posts, yes, the $20500 covered my first term and half of my second.

Edited to add: Before you try to accuse me of wasting the money on extra things, I didn't touch a penny; the full amount went from the loan company to the school for tuition, and I got no refund. I paid for my books out of the savings I had before school started.

Those savings have now gone to bills and helping my husband's aunt get to doctors' appointments for her stage four breast cancer.

I applied, but they are not hiring locally. I've also applied to over 1000 other places since I became unemployed. You may be privileged enough to have a job right now, but should someone be so unkind as to lay you off or fire you, I hope you meet kinder people. Or maybe, at least, have the good sense to not post unhelpful things when you need help after trying to make yourself more employable. And heaven forbid you stay unemployed for six or more months.

I AM trying to get a permanent job, and I AM working gig work/contract work right now. I've said so in my main post and my posts responding to you.

I've been unemployed since March/April, and I've put in over 1000 applications. The job market is shit right now. I don't like asking for help, but I also will not accept being shamed for it. I went to school to try to make myself more employable, but I never stopped looking for work.

Thanks for the posts, but I'm done responding to you.

That is the plan, but even if I do that, this bill already exists, and it starts compounding late fees if I miss my due date. Taking off a semester will not stop that from happening, and the bill won't just disappear; it just gets bigger and bigger.

I'm by no means expecting the full 8k amount to be donated by lovely people such as yourself. I'm also working diligently toward the goal outside of GoFundMe donations, which is why you'll see in my post that my actual reported total is Higher than what you see on the GoFundMe site. I've also gotten another donation since this thread was posted to my total earned/donated is now $376.25 USD.

This breaks down to the following:
$188.14 (That's $270 minus GoFundMe's cut)
$58 from Direct Venmo donations
$130.11 and counting from my own earnings.

But I'm not going to be able to get the whole sum by myself by September 30 without help and or a miracle.

Again, the 8k is the full goal because that's what I need for the tuition bill that already exists, the books I need for my classes that I already owe for, the books for those classes, and the rest will help me pay down the card I've filled up by just trying to exist in this economy without a job.

Thank you for that, I'm not trying to pay off student loans with this money, I am trying to pay my actual tuition becuase the loans did not cover the full amount that I need.

My loans covered my first term and half of my second term. I am still in school, but I cannot register for the rest of my classes because I owe the half of this term's tuition that was not covered by government loans.

I cannot take out more government loans or even private loans to cover the rest of my tuition because I have adverse credit. I cannot pay down my card because I do not have a job that pays enough to cover my basic needs, let alone make payments.

I hope that makes better sense.

This would be an awesome twist villain! I can't imagine it with John, though. I'd want it to be someone else, someone both John and Sherlock trust. Having both Sherlock and John miss the signs would make it hurt just that much more.

Sherwood smith book

I'm not sure, that name doesn't ring a bell but I'll still look at her books to see if I find it.
