resources for finding employment - homeless
posting anonymously
i’m a 22 year old female who just drove here from florida, long story short i just absolutely hated my life there and needed a change.
I currently won’t have a place to stay after jan 6th and have been applying to jobs at so many places but no one is getting back to me. i’ve applied to guitar center, a couple supermarkets, smoke shops, goodwills, etc. nothing. i call to follow up, i go in to places, and im just redirected back to an online application or told they’ll “get back to me” or they’re just not hiring full time.
i don’t have any college experience but i really would like to attend college- i had a really rough time during high school & after with mental health and id like to get my life together and have a promising career, but it’s hard to go to college when i have no money.
i realize from an outside perspective it may seem stupid to just drive to a new state with no money and nowhere to go, but even my therapist in florida told me i needed to do it. it was a total dead end for me there, and i already feel happier despite not really having a roof over my head.
i have reliable transport, and im open to most things, i just can’t do heavy labor like factory work due to heart issues i got from covid. is there maybe a job resource center that can aide me in finding a job??
thanks in advance & please be kind
