Okay, this might sound like a stupid question but I think I am legitimately on the spectrum. I moved out of my parents house when I got my GED. I look like your average 20 year old, but I have never worked in a day of my life. I didn't grow up very affluent, but we weren't below the poverty line either.
I've applied to a total of 11 jobs in a five mile radius from my apartment, and I have gotten exactly 0 emails or phonecalls back. Can /adv/ share their wisdom with me? I'm just trying to get a job to put some food on the table for myself and save up money for a beater (car).
> btw I have only applied for jobs online, as I don't have any friends here to refer me to any places

What's got me jobs that I've nowhere neared qualified for in the past was simply going in and introducing myself to the manager. He's not there? Find out when he's going to be there, and be there.
I feel the same way about myself as well, jobs, put me so far beyond my comfort zone that I legitimately feel like puking before I meet up. You and I boss, we're kinda fucked. Life is more difficult for us, but we gotta fucking clutch it otherwise we will end up in a position infinitely worse than where we are now.
Bear down, and tackle the situation. Meet the manager, get that fucking job.

Hey, thanks for the response. I appreciate it.
> find and talk to the manager
Ah, I had no idea that this was a thing. Another question...
I applied for a few more jobs today, and I'm not expecting any phonecalls back desu. Should I just show up, say... in a few days, and ask to speak with the manager for the position that I applied to?
For instance,
> applied to Walmart today (for the second time)
> ....not expecting anything....
> show up to Walmart, and ask to speak with manager
What exactly do I say to the manager?
> "Hey, I applied for a position here again...?" Yada yada yada...
I have no idea what to say desu.

I posted something in another thread about the importance of not analyzing things. Don't analyze, that's an issue this board shares. Just go man, just apply yourself.
"Hey can I speak to the manager"
"Hey I'm the manager"
"I applied here a couple days ago, I was wondering if that position was filled or maybe you could fill me in a bit more on what the position entails?"
Trust me I don't think of this shit on the spot, and am more aspie than I'd like to admit. Just be there man, apply your physical self. Get out of your mind. Stop analyzing.
