I graduated college at the beginning of the year with no work experience. Part time and internships weren't options because I needed to push through my getting my degree itself if I was going to get it at all. It's not a great major for pay(Sociology), but this would be my final attempt at any degree and I meshed poorly with academia. I got it, got a retail job shortly after graduating, and then quit almost immediately because I couldn't stand up for long enough to actually do my job. I likely need to get back and leg problems diagnosed, but that's not really something this sub can help with. Anyway, since March, I've been unemployed and struggling to find work.
Fundamentally, one of the major reasons is that I simply don't care. In a “those who don't work don't eat” world, I am willing to simply not eat. That said, this isn't an option, as I have to continue trying to eat for the sake of a friend of mine with few other connections with other people. I have been unwillingly joined into an accord which would mean I don't stop eating alone, so to speak.
I have no skills I am willing to monetize, no experience to draw on, and no professional connections to network through. Like a lot of other people apparently, I also am not someone even employers who traditionally have the most lax expectations will deign to give even rejections to. And at the core, I wouldn't even care anymore, except that I'm being forced into caring.
What steps could I take to handle this situation, both for my sake and that of my friend?
