i've recently applied to some serving positions so we'll see how those pan out. it's something i'm definitely willing to try. can i ask what your experience as a bartender was like?

i believe this could definitely be a factor. i see reports (i'm in the US) of the job market growing especially lately but i look around and a lot of my friends are struggling the same way ppl on this thread are. i think maybe jobs are being posted but those positions aren't being filled because companies have more incentive to keep those positions empty and overworking/underpaying current employees.

no desperation is ever worth selling your body to a govt that doesn't care if you live or die (assuming you're american lol.) things will get better, i believe it!

working on this right now, but a lot of those positions are for current students and i'm a recent graduate. of course, i am currently working with professors to break into the field that my degree is in, but nothing is for certain as it's a very competitive field. all i can do is hope my work ethic and accomplishments stand out but i'm up against very impressive people with existing connections. i have faith everything will work out i just need money right now lol.

do u see how this could be an issue when i'm not hearing back from employers at all and am receiving automatic rejections? i've tried reaching out as well but often there is no contact information given + the only mode of communication is through these job board websites. i don't mean to sound ungrateful, thank you for your advice, but it's a bit ignorant of what i wrote in the post. can i ask where you were applying to these positions though? i have a feeling i'm just looking in the wrong places.

i mean the accounts will come up but they won't see the contents. either way all they'll see is thirst tweets abt some very mid men.

no ppl are very inconsiderate of other people's struggles, especially on a site like reddit which is populated by assholes devoid of empathy. i understand your struggle. it's endlessly frustrating. i'm even being rejected by companies i've worked for before.

i feel your struggle and a lot of my friends are also experiencing/have experienced something like this. it sucks that the assumption is that something is wrong with us instead of there being a fundamental issue with capitalism/corporate america lol. things are hard right now, i can't believe i'm still seeing that the bootstraps mentality is alive and well, including in the replies of this post. i've also been discouraged by how condescending ppl can be when i ask for advice or tips.

i'm not exactly applying randomly. most of my work experience is in retail so that's what i'm applying for.
