Struggling to figure out what to do next.

I've been unemployed for a little over a month now after walking out on my job at a FedEx warehouse. The conditions were so horrendous, including, but not limited to: constant risk of heat stroke due to no A/C, low wages and hours ($14/hr at about 24 hrs a week), and a lack of safety precautions.

I would go back to school for some sort of degree in a field I'm interested in, but I can't afford it, my family refuses to assist, and I don't qualify for enough financial aid.

Kinda just yelling into the void at this point, but it is what it is lmao.
