(these are non negotiable criteria for me. i have no professional experience and no car) every job i see, i can barely even comprehend what the position is even supposed to be. i dont speak corporate jargon and i never will, seeing it makes my brain blue screen. but thats basically all that seems available: heinously overcomplicated work from home office jobs that i would flounder in like a fish out of water. i dont…know what im doing. my moms in a fucking MLM and thinks capitalism is a system you can game if you just try hard enough, and has 0 time on her hands to help me anyway. so shes no help. i have a resume made of what little “odd jobs for family and friends” experience i do have, my education section is blank save for the GED because that is literally all i have. i dont know how to write a cover letter and the one family member (grandmother) who would help me turns it into a whole fucking production when i dont want a serious career rn i just need the online equivalent of mcdonalds. i dont know what to do.
