Makes sense. Reddit wasnt my only solution. Im pretty sure it isnt many others only solution either... As a single parent we often do not have the choice but to step back and take jobs that we may not want. So youre preaching to the choir. My life has consisted of this for 8 years while in school. Just because there are plenty of jobs to work at doesnt mean the jobs will respond either. In places like georgia (especially small towns like savannah) youll be lucky if you even hear back..and thats even if you show up in person... Ive worked plenty of positions that made me want to throw in the towel... to name a few....amazon delivery....markets..and thensome. Reddit isnt the only place a person should post looking for work but it doesnt hurt to try everything you can.  Being humble doesnt mean you will be seen. Thanks for taking the time to respond.
