Entering the job market after 8 years in the military. WTF is wrong with businesses?

Just finished my contract with the Navy and entering the civilian side after 8 years in. I've been hunting for a part-time job while I go to school because I won't be able to provide for my family & I off of VA benefits alone. I swear every “part-time” job has you working full time just with a minor cut in hours or benefits. Or it's a full-time job literally just being marketed as a part-time so they can get more applicants. Then when I do find an actual part-time job, they pay $11/hour (FL minimum wage) in one of the most expensive markets in the state, oh and the shifts are 10 hours for some fucking reason. I'm sorry you guys have had to endure this bullshit for so long.
