Are you 12?

>>18064613
120 is about normal these days for job applications.

-OP

>>18064607
i think you're mostly angry about the fact that you had to adapat to a world not fit for you and you're sending it in your hometown
if you don't live in the world you want then change it

>>18064622
How did you not, you know, improve your applications? Or were you just sending out the same resume and cover letter to companies? You can't have shown many of them how much you actually were interested in the companies either if you applied for 120 jobs.

Honest question; how long would be your commute to said job opportunity?

Are you fucking retarded?
Read his post butterbrains.

>>18064607
What are your options in terms of commuting, OP?

I'm also angry for my whole life I've tried to make things better by trying to do it myself rather than demand an entitlement and have others change it for me.

While growing up, I didn't have a lot of control. I wanted to do my own hobbies and do my own thing, but I always had to ask for permission. I complained about not fitting in and the parents' response was to stop being selfish and forget my hobbies and just be interested in what other people are interested in. I mean, screw martial arts, basketball is more important. Screw video games, you should be into hunting!

I can't even spend my own money to fix up my room to be more comfortable, simply the fact that it's "their house."

I am trying to change it, but it's difficult. I want out of my town, so I'm trying to get a job and move. No success.

I would use the same resume, but change it up a bit and cater towards each job. Same with my cover letters; I would write a somewhat different letter and tell them what I liked about their company.

I have a car. I'm just 2 hours from the nearest city.

>>18064635
The last job I had an interview with was 6 hours away. I got an interview with Panda Express and that's 2 hours away. I call back every few days to check up on my interview status, and the manager just gets impatient with me and tells me they'll call me back.

>>18064623
The reason smalltowns suck is that if you don't fit in, you either fit to their norms or you outcast yourself. You don't expect them to change for you.

At least in larger cities, you have the power to move around a bit to find a group you have more in common with.

Why should anyone have to compromise their own interests?

>>18064647
If you're applying for minimum wage jobs that don't require a degree, you need to make yourself appear dumb and uneducated. Leave out the degree. The manager isn't going to hire a person smarter than him.

>>18064607
pull your head out of your arse! yes you live in a bum fuck town in bum fuck nowhere.

it could be a lot worse you could be in another town while your friends is dying of a disease and you cant always be there.

stop being a selfish little shit there is always someone who has it worse than you.

if want a job dont tell them you have a degree. just tell them what they want to hear. so they will give you a job.

You're a jerk. That doesn't make you wrong. It just means you're telling me what I need to hear even if I don't like it.

Thank you.
