Tired of job searching…

I've found jobs that I am interested in but they are either too far away or it seems too good to be true. I don't want another retail job like the one I currently have, but I literally have no clue what job I would like. I'm tired of sifting through job descriptions and trying to figure out if it's real or not. I already have had a not so fun start to the new year, job hunting seems to make things worse.

I've found jobs that I am interested in but they are either too far away or it seems too good to be true. I don't want another retail job like the one I currently have, but I literally have no clue what job I would like. I'm tired of sifting through job descriptions and trying to figure out if it's real or not. I already have had a not so fun start to the new year, job hunting seems to make things worse.

Enough of this “well people are hiring”. Yeah, people are hiring, but they either pay a crap wage or demand way too much of an employee or make you feel like a clown. (One of the descriptions I looked at mentioned that you must be able to multitask, such as rubbing your stomach and patting your head at the same time).

The act of searching for a job IS a job that everyone should be compensated for in some way. And then to make a resume, a cover letter, sometimes even writing an essay for all for a company to make a decision in as little as 15 minutes that affects your future.

I know that I can't do this forever and what I really want to do is help people in any way I can. Join a disaster relief team, make music that connects people, share some of my skills with people. I don't want to sit in some office pressing buttons while being away from the people that I care about all day.
