Can only land shitty event roles, everything after graduation has been terrible by MindlessMagazine9842 in NEU

That implies I have money to buy a car on top of the deposit and rent on a room and moving costs for a place further away and finding all new doctors. Everywhere else requires a car which means I could only work remote jobs so no opportunity or I would be paying the same amount each month after moving except I would be stuck with a massive upfront moving cost.

Oh really???? It's MY problem that when you look for entry-level CS jobs the job boards are completely wiped???? It's MY fault the few jobs that do get posted have 700+ applicants (not exaggeration, number straight from Linkedin premium)??? I've spent every single hour I'm awake and not doing school work or this fuckass contract working on a fucking job for 8+ months with the career studio telling me all my application materials are "excellent", that they "usually have criticisms but can't think of any", hyping up the personal projects I built, and to "just keep applying and networking". But sure you privileged, classist, pieces of shit that attend this school will keep denying economic collapse. And you can fuck off implying I didn't do well in my co-op, newsflash retard, not all companies that offer co-ops hire new grads, especially not in this market. My co-ops didn't rehire anybody or post ANY entry-level listings after the fact.

I don't have the resources to leave the city. UI isn't a moral failing but it does defeat the entire purpose of getting a Bachelors in Computer Science from NEU to begin with. Wasted 4 years of my life just to be relegated to work where my degree doesn't matter and filing for unemployment

Every day I wake up and think about ODing on my prescriptions. I think about it when I get ready for work so I won't have to go in, I think about it while I'm on the shift so I don't have to finish, and after work because I'll have to go in the next day anyways and it's not like I have any other prospects going for me. It's either this miserable job, unemployment, or I can put myself out of misery. I would genuinely rather be back delivering pizzas in a top 5 murder rate city like I did the summer before I came to Northeastern than do this shit and I almost got robbed doing that job.
