My mom gave me this letter of encouragement she found on a job site- as to ‘not give up hope’

I’ve applied to over 250+ jobs since august. I just graduated with a bachelors in media studies. I’ve even applied to Walmart and got rejected- cue the menty b that makes me feel like I’m never good enough. I try not to give up hope. I apply in person, online, and even go in person to see if I can check in with a manager on duty. I’m persistent. I do want to work, and everyday she either is supportive, or tells me ‘I’m not trying hard enough’ – this letter feels gaslighty, just like she would I pound the pavement. but not enough apparently? And it’s my fault jobs won’t accept me. Lmao…
