This isn't really my place, but. Darkly. You know what isn't cool? Being passive-aggressive. So if you have an issue with someone, bring it up with them, don't make a list/whine about it on the forum.

Define "stupid".

I misunderstand simple things, I have endless useless knowledge but nothing usable, I don't know any famous names in history or in celebrity, I don't know any bands or artists (and I should know artists), you could fill a library with all the stuff I don't know


IN FACT NEVERMIND THEY ALREADY DID

All this means is that you need to pay more attention. That has nothing to do with being stupid.


I'm the same way. About the only "celebrity" stuff I know is from old movies and my favorite bands.

People can say where something is and I will misunderstand and look in completely the wrong place

That's not needing to pay more attention that's being a total retard

And this.

Seriously, man up that you made a mistake by ranting many of the things you said and apologize to Star, don't post about it here and expect us to defend you about it.

If you need cheddar to pay for your rent, ask someone in your family, usually your parents.

And uh, how many jorbs have you tried?

Well, I still live at home so I don't have to worry about rent, and my parents said they'd be willing to help, but I don't want to depend on them for that unless I really have to.

Not counting online, at least 15 places, and only one was hiring. It's been nearly a week so I hope they contact me soon, but I have no experience, so.

Well then, I suppose I can only hope that they inform you and that you get the job.

Or you know, sacrifice some children.

If they didn't have up a very clear and obvious "NOW HIRING" sign, don't feel bad if they haven't gotten back to you already. Tuxedo Mask and I were both looking for jobs when I moved in (he wasn't unemployed, but he hated where he was) and the only experience I had was volunteer work. I wasn't getting any calls back even after two months from some places, and some said they were hiring.

If you want to just have SOMETHING on your resume, if you have the time, volunteer. You'll feel good about doing it too, but if you really need to start saving and your time has become so precious you can only spend what extra you have earning cash, apply EVERYWHERE. Even if you think you will hate the job. It'll at least be something to put on the resume if you stay at least a month.

And hey, if you don't work every day of the work, you won't have to put up with the job you hate very often and might be able to stand it for several months. That'll really help your chances of getting hired by someone else.

I once had a job where I worked once every fortnight.

I quit after 5 months, I was doing barely any work, and getting paid barely anything because of it.
And don't say I could've gotten a second job, because if you're smart, you'd know that people with 2 jobs have to pay double the tax.

I actually have volunteered. I volunteered for almost a year at an animal shelter, but I was kind of shitty about going so I'm scared to put it down.

And I'm not so worried about the week thing. I just. I can't drive so I don't think they'll hire me.
