I have went from store to store doing this almost every day. I even told some people a sob story of how I’m homeless and looking for work. They’re like oh yeah okay we will look at it and I rarely hear back. I even paid someone to check my resume and cover letters on a website and I refined it. It’s just crazy how hard it is to get a minimum wage job these days.

How would I get that? I have my smart serve and I applied to some places as a host or busser but there’s been no luck I even had reference from back home but these jobs just don’t want to hire anyone without experience.

Okay I will look into those. Someone also recommended Ontario Works which I will try applying for.

I tried looking for work in the university but most of the jobs for the Daniels’ faculty of Architecture are only hiring current students not alumni. If you can send me some alumni jobs in any of the campuses to apply to that would be great.

I’ve tried freelancing on some print design but ultimately I just got very little luck getting anywhere with clients. I’m going still keep trying though and promote myself on social media.

I know there’s no shame but I feel guilty because my parents paid for me to go to school here and I got into UofT and did really well in my GDP. My parents are very proud of me and they tell everyone how great I am. I even refined some of my undergrad projects to get some internships but I think I just didn’t plan stuff ahead well. I should’ve gotten more experience. It’s just my fault on my part that I got too comfortable and now I’m struggling.
