I have been out of work almost 6 months, I am 20/F and only ever worked in retail. I left my job without notice because I was being harrassed and bullied at work by a manager and I am not the sort to seek action about it. What was done was done and I just want a new job, that is full time on a till and dealing with the public.

I am on Job seekers and applied for 24 jobs so far, which is basically the whole town where I live and I am running out of options. I am stuck at my nan's and can't do half the things I would like to.

The only other talent I have is writing and occasionally answering posts on here if I think I can help. However I have problems finishing stories.

What can I do now? (link)
Just because you can't drive (which you didn't mention by the way) and you don't have confidence, doesn't mean you need to rate me poorly. Those are YOUR problems and lack of motivation, not my lack of good advice.





Ever thought about selling Avon or Mary Kay? At least you would be your own boss and control the income you got. Since you live in a small town, you probably know people pretty well and could convince them to buy from you.

If you want a more conventional job, I would look outside of the town, even if you have to drive further then you would like.

If you are good at writing, maybe you could apply to be a clerk at a newspaper office or something like that.

Good luck,

-Abby
