It doesn't seem to be enough to get you to get out of your low state however, so obviously there's issues you need to sort out before you can reliably hold a job, because otherwise what's keeping you from securing a job will also probably keep you from holding one.

The solution is simple. Follow the advice given, pad up your interviews to look good and try to do the job you're given without bugging out. If you're working for anything under $15/hr, it's not going to change your life, so don't set yourself up expecting the money train.

Odd jobs for family is a different sort of work ethic. It doesn't take the same kind of gumption required to get yourself out of bed every day for paltry minimum wage for a job you're most definitely going to hate.

The interviewer is looking for people who are going to work the stuffty jobs without freaking out, getting weird about it or just straight up not showing to work. That's the purpose of the interview. I've held jobs and have gone to many a interviews, so I know what I'm talking about.

So you continue to be skeptical of the advice you asked for and continue to tank interviews...

Good luck, that's all I can say.

lying will forget you always in the future. every single white lie i've told ended up screwing me later; of course i'm going to shoot down people who ask me TO LIE.

Padding your interview isn't lying, you're literally supposed to make yourself look good to get hired, otherwise nobody in their right mind will hire the guy who was needlessly brutally honest about the fact that he has no skills.

Besides, you're doing entry-level work. Who cares about whether or not you're the perfect specimen for stacking boxes? You gotta play along with the interviews, even if it doesn't seem genuine.

If it works, it works

Do you honestly prefer me to just sling insults at you and call you stupid like you do?

It doesn't seem to be working very well. I'll just stick to my thing.

It won't work for you, you're balls deep in your own ass

I've been secretly prodding your posts to get pointers on deflection, considering how deep I am inside my own starfish. It's truly been a learning experience.

But hey, at least I'm not Kevin Spacey right now.

So the fact that harry weinstein being outed for being a predator, and all the social media buzz around it just isn't relevant in this context?

It seems that this whole thing is snowballing and digging up some old stuff outta hollywood. I don't see how this is in any way a bad thing, hollywood has always been a cesspool of drugs and rape. When it starts to actually finally maybe change, everyone freaks out over some supposed anti-male/anti-republican bias. It's boggling.

they couldn't have done that like, decades earlier?

Why does it matter?
