It's been a while since I posted here, but I don't know where else to go right now.

What the fuck is wrong with me? I work hard whenever I get the opportunity to actually work, I live clean, I have ambitions and goals, and every single thing that can further fuck my life up has a way of happening. Every time I think I couldn't be more broke, it somehow happens. My bank accounts are frozen already, I just opened a new one so I could borrow rent money. I'd consider killing myself if it wouldn't just land my debts in my family's lap. I can't say it enough. Everything is shit. I'm about to give my girl yet another absolute shit holiday, I'm getting tired of saying "next year". I see the biggest dopes I went to school with finding work and not doing anything with it, and I cant tie down a fucking thing. What do I do?

Even if you land one of these jobs, I would start looking into a union job. Electric, plumbing or metal work. If your degree isn't in a hard science or something to do with tech it's fucking useless. Union jobs are secure and they pay well. If you won't want to do that, try the military and go in as in officer.

Not OP, but I seriously don't understand this. I'm a first-year English Lit student - admittedly it doesn't guarantee you a job like training for a trade does, but what's stopping me from becoming the guy who writes the information placards at museums?

LMAO that's not a full time job man, you think they pay someone a livable wage to write information placards all day?
I'm going to have to agree with the fellow on the union job bit. Basically, if you look at every single union in your surrounding area and apply to all of them with complete applications you will eventually get paid training. Period.

Listen dude, I'm not going to shit on your dreams, but what are you going to do with a lit degree? Are you going to be a writer? Teach high school english? I mean realistically what are your odds of getting a good paying job with it? Even the low paying ones are going to have a bunch of people with the same degree you have going for it. I dunno dude, I'd rather have a trade.
If you did anything but STEM or a profession, kill yourself
