Why is it so hard to get a job?

The only things I don't want to do our run a cash register wait tables wash dishes or work at a fast food restaurant cooking the food other than that I will do pretty much whatever job is out there that you don't need a college degree for.

I have applied for eight or nine jobs and got nothing so far


I have actually applied to UPS as a package handler which requires sorting stuff at their Center to come off of trucks that bring them there to UPS and put them on the delivery trucks. I have an interview for that on Wednesday tomorrow.

I also applied to UPS for the driver helper assistant which would have me going in the truck with a driver and helping them deliver packages I have an interview for that on Friday.

And I have applied for a car wash bay job at a Toyota dealership

It sounds like you are on the right track and should be moving forward soon. Trust your instincts and keep those jobs you don’t feel well-equipped for as your last resort.

Too bad that's all you can get without a college degree. You think I like working at a convenience store? No but it's all I can get

Take a job you don't like get some work history and keep applying to jobs you want. When I interview a job prospect and they have large time gaps in their employment history that they excuse by saying they wouldn't take menial jobs they didn't like I believe they will be a poor fit. No matter what our title position or pay we all have to be willing to do things we don't like to do

You could unload freight at a store.
