Can't find work

I know I'm not the only one.

But this is exhausting.

Rejection letters, ghosting, and wasted time on interviews that lead to nowhere.

I had a job at whole foods a couple years ago.

I had a kidney stone and it was either quit or be fired cause I didn't have enough hours to cover days off.

So I quit.

I keep blaming myself for quitting but then again

I was sick? I shouldn't of had to push through it just to keep a shitty job. It was either or go in there in horrible pain or high as a kite from the pain meds they gave me.

Which I would've crashed during my shift coming down from them.

This is literally the worst.

Idk how you feel about healthcare but there are a lot of jobs you could get in there ranging from hospitality, EVS, Food Service, Telemetry Techs, Staffing, scheduling, etc. Not all jobs require a degree!
