Shameless bump?

Pick up a trade.
Pull yourself up by your fucking bootstraps you faggot motherfucker. I started with no experience and now I manage a whole aisle of target BY MYSELF. GET WRECKED FAGGOT. Go apply for job cleaning toilets FAGGOT
I'm a manager at my work, I hire people. Time for you to think like me to answer your question.
I got one job and two Resumes:
1) Good in school, took more education right out of HS, did part time jobs at school that gave her real world experience. Ready and motivated to work and join the team
2) This person was unfocused in school, took time off to "find themselves" after HS, odd jobs with different focus (cleaner, call center sales, roofer, babysitter), has shown no ambition in 26 years, no focus.
Both these candidates say"I am highly motivated and always solve any challenges and I am ready to energize your team!"
Who do you hire? If you say #2 put down the bong and grow up
Get a shitty job in something you are interested in. Get some skills, get some experience, PROVE to others that you are worth the risk to bring on board. If you have no ambition in life you get exactly that.
Good luck, but the days of hiring people on 'Project Bootstraps' are over. Too many good unemployed people out there, make yourself stand out.
Are you in America? You can get a job. Broaden your horizons and show some grit. Construction, union programs, restaurant, start your own business, just do SOMETHING.
I do look at it objectively which makes it seem hopeless. I don't have the best start but I have several years of steady improvement.
if you feel like you can do a certain job then lie on your resume. use friends phone numbers and tell them they used to be your supervisor and have them talk you up. make sure your friends arent retards and wont fuck it up for you. and dont apply for anything you know you cant figure out or be trained to do. ive been fudging resumes between each job while also having some truth on it and now I have a county job
I do work construction with my cousin every month or so. Again it's another odd job that doesn't build up to anything. I have construction dockwork and customer service experience. Applied to 100s of places and nothing. Nobody cares
