I just want an entry job-is that so hard to ask?

Post Reply New Topic

I just want to finally find any low-level job at all. I'm extremely desperate, and I'm not really living independently either. After I left high school seven years ago, I was never able to establish myself as quickly as some of my peers have. It seems like my options are very limited or not existent at all, unless I commit to long-term education.

I just wish I can get in now while it's still not too late. Besides being aspie, I also have balance and co-ordination issues. It's beginning to feel like I have to explain all my conditions to be understood and helped in my scenario. Luckily, I've been in school again since Fall, after my seven years of being more depressed and shut in my room without any resume-worthy experience or achievements, and the few scant volunteer gigs I can't exactly quantify or have the dates for anymore. Now, the year will conclude at the end of May, and I don't want to spend my Summer feeling depressed and isolated again. I even think the process of just getting started looks more out of my favor. I want to do this by Summer.

Sounds like you'd benefit from signing up for not one but multiple staffing agencies. They are there to help people like you where they would work on your resume, find different jobs for you, and maybe even give you some job training in certain fields if needed. Just tell them you want a job where you can get your foot in the door. You would work some temp jobs with some permanent potential down the road.
