Enough is enough

Post Reply New Topic

I am sick of doing nothing. I haven't done anything since June, and I absolutely hate the job centre. They are completely useless, barely anyone speaks English and no one knows what Asperger's is. Or 'Aspergis', as the dwarf who spoke to me put it today. Plus I feel really bad about taking the country's money.

I'm only going to the dole office to get money (to spend on what??) because my parents are forcing me to. But enough is enough! I'm a sort-of intelligent person; I'm way better than those old low lifes that go there to collect their money to spend on beer. I'm going to go out and get a job myself, if it kills me. I have absolutely no idea how, but I will. I will!

While I haven't really succeeded in getting "the dole" (except for getting $200 from my voc rehab for gas money), I would feel no guilt about getting it. Not anymore. I hate this superficial society that cares more about social skills than academic achievement.

would you consider going to college or doing a course.

How about going into business for yourself, doing crafts or freelance writing, or accounting, or landscaping?

What about a skilled trade (plumber, electrician etc.)?

Good luck Simonono. I know how you feel. I've been relying too much on my employment agency. Only job they came up with in months was at a supermarket, stocking shelves. Fine by me. Went to the interview. Waited forever. Have just found out they aren't going to employ anyone on disability benefits unless it is worked out through some national agency. But this agency doesn't have an office in this state. So...

I gotta study small business and start my own.
