MushroomElm wrote If you live in a moderately big area(100K+ people in the town) you could find a security gig. They have high turn overs and most companies are happy with a no experience G.E.D kind of person.

The only issue is lack of pay. But it can float you for awhile while you look for something more career oriented. I got kind of lucky with my gig. $3K a month where I just play on my phone all day and do little actual work. Most Security in my area get paid $12/hour as the median, but there are a lot of security companies in my area as I could get an offer for about 20 new jobs in the hour.


Excluding a month at Dunkin Donuts, my first real job was Security with no prior relevant experience. Four years later, I'm an assistant shift manager and making a decent pay. Security is not a bad field if you can find a good place to work and a company that has room for advancement.

You can find jobs with no requirements or ones you just need your HS diploma for.

Find a fast food place, a pizza place, or some local restaurants, apply even if it's just to do dishes or help around.
Places like this will give you basic experience to put on a resume, such as custom service skills, money handling, and working together as a team with coworkers.

You seem like you may benefit from working in a trade. Looking up unions and trade jobs that may interest you. Things like electrician work, plumbing, etc.

Good luck, and just remember you're not the only one going through this. Things will work out for you man, and I sure hope we get an update from you when things do!
