I’m in the US, no degree, and absolutely sick to death of working in retail.
I’ve tried all the jobs website. They haven’t even gotten me an interview. The only job search method that’s ever given me results is to think of businesses near me and apply to them directly. But that only leaves me working more retail, since public facing businesses are all I’m interacting with.
I just want a job that pays my bills, and lets me work on a consistent schedule. I’m so sick of having my hours constantly whipped back and forth. I just want to go to bed at the same time every day.


I’m not making any statements about universal truths here. I’ve simply followed the advice given to me and gotten good results with it, so I want to spread it forward. I’m just trying to be helpful.
This is such a Lemmy moment again.
Well, it seems most people on lemmy find it to be bad advice, and they seem to have gotten there by trying it.
So thanks for creating the “lemmy moment”
