I've been in the service industry for 5 years now. Been working back of house as a cook. I feel so trapped and I absolutely hate what the industry has put me through. I've been trying to leave for months now, redid my resume, made it look real nice and way more professional. I worked in printing for 3 years before I went into the industry. I just feel like no matter how hard I try I'm never going to get out of the industry. I don't know what I even want to do. I just know that it's not cooking anymore. I feel so frustrated. I've been denied well over thirty jobs in my area. So I thought, well let's try going back to school. I'm hopeful to be able to start that soon, take a few classes I would need in order to start a trade (ie, electrician) and be hired by a local union.
I'm just ranting and feeling very lost right now.
