I'm a 19 yr old jobless unskilled loser currently in college. How fucked am I in getting a part time job? I did do volunteer work back in high school but nothing else.
Get a student job and start from there.
I didn't have a job until I was 19 too but I do well and my boss loved me.
Make connections in the right places and you'll have offers waiting for you.
Go flip burgers, unskilled labor means unskilled. They take anyone with a pulse that's halfway dependable. I delivered pizzas and worked a help desk during college. Both sucked, but both paid and you don't need anything more than basic social skills and math to do.

lie on your job application. Everyone I know (people my age working at fastfood places) lie on theirs. Make it believable.

You aint that unskilled or useless. You voulenteered in HS. You didn't sit on your ass playing vidya all the time. It should be easy to get a PT job. You are in college aka you are bettering yourself.

Are you in the US? Have you filled your FAFSA out yet? You'll have to before you can qualify for work study, but your college should have a work study program. They pay the federal minimum wage.

19 is young as fuck, you don't have to be terribly skilled at that age. Just try and get yourself an entry level job at anything, even if it's a McJob flipping burgers or cleaning rooms. Focus not on your skills but personality traits in your resume, such as being a fast learner, being honest, sociable or whatever suits you, and try to find some examples of this from what you have achieved in high school as you write your cover letter.
I am 24 now and a graphic designer, but at 19 I was very much unskilled too. My solution was to just go to school, and I got through it not having to work too much besides a summer job at a frozen baked goods factory, while using student loan money and freelancing some odd translation jobs once it run out.
