We’re all being lied to

So I work 2 jobs to get atleast 20 hours a week combined. One a government job and the other for a coffee company. I am available to work between the 2 jobs from 5am-10pm Sunday to Saturday. But I set Both up to work around the other one. Today is the 5th time the government job has screwed me into being late for the coffee job and if I complain the paper they made me sign states they have the right to fire me for my coffee job interfering with the government job. I'm sorry but 20 hours a week between both jobs still isn't enough to live on but getting the coffee job is the best I could get so far in the last 3 months of looking for a better full time job to get out of this bullshit sucky government job. And the coffee shop keeps…

And the coffee shop keeps closing every 20 mins for covid exposures but were forced to lie and tell customers it's staffing shortages. So within the last month that I have been working for the coffee place it's been shut down 3 times for 5 days each. (Did I mention I've only worked at the coffee job a month? No income coming in during shut downs)

I have applied now to over 800 jobs threw indeed with all stuff that I know I am capable of doing and have experience in. And over 50 jobs on the company websites themselves. Most of which was for less pay than the government job ($15 an hour is what I make at the gov job).

I have received the interview for the coffee place and took it ($12 an hour), an interview for a 6 month contract for a temp agency with no benefits for $14 an hour which I turned down because I need a permanent position to qualify for a loan soon but my pay has been too low for me to get one and scammers calling me to try to get my information.

I don't buy this load of bullcrap that we have a worker shortage and desperately need people, if you really needed people you would have gave people interviews and the chance to work for your company. I have been applying for anything $12 an hour and over… that's not enough to live on and I still can't get but 2 calls for interviews? That's a joke.
