I feel like your lying about how much your trying, I internally filled out one application and got a job for it. where do you live? are you really weird looking or dirty or something?

>>18076739
live in detroit. am i dirty or weird looking? idk.
ive applied to every place i can possibly find an application for over the past month to no avail. not sure what the problem is. maybe someone knows of some common reasons why job apps are turned down by people in 'hiring' positions? i just want to make some fucking money but i dont know how to get someone to just fucking hire me.

>>18076750
what are you applying for? and don't say 'everything'

>>18076760
your average fucking random store youd see in the ghetto. idk. there arent a whole lot of great places to work for around here. any fast food place, or places like target, or your average mall outlet store, basically anything min wage / part time since that is the only available avenue of work around here unless you have heaps of experience.

well buddy you're going to have to develop some marketable skills. I am in same boat in a way. i have been homeless a lot through my life. and I am also almost thirty. my only real jobs have been minimum wage bullshit which lead to problems yes anyways i have all types of issues okay but I finally realized that I have to learn how to do something relatively difficult to do and everything will work out. Really I am capable of doing manual labor and reasonably fit so skilled labor jobs are fine too. you must be wasting all your time doing something that is not productive at all. because otherwise you would be somewhere in your life... I wasted years reading fantasy novels, then playing on computer, then running around getting fucked up, and then that one just kept right on going until n ow I have lots of permanent damage to... well everything. anyways have you tried learning how to program computers

anyone hanve an answer as to why employers may not be calling me for interviews? what is the number one thing that makes you throw out an application?

>>18076892
Just keep applying man, you're just not having any luck.
Be as honest as possible on an application, if you have a good work history or not, everyone puts their best fakest face forward and honesty stands out even if it doesn't paint you in the best light.
Some jobs respond to repeated inquiries, ie calling them back to see if they've checked you're application.
If you get rejected, just keep trying. I'm just a high school graduate and usually have to go through a dozen or more applications when I need a new job.
