[quietwingsinthesky]

google how to inform places im applying to that id like to start at level zero. i have no experience. thats the point. you have to GIVE ME SOME.

#like. fuck can i say i can do. ‘i can use excel’ except see thats. a lie. i cant use excel. because i cant afford excel. #i can use google sheets or any of the libreoffice software. i cant use microsoft excel i dont HAVE excel #my friend told me ‘oh just put down the parttime work you did in high school’ how do i explain to her that i was not allowed to. leave the #house. #no money no prospects all i got is a little bit of writing talent an electric scooter and a dream. and libreoffice. #like i can bake but i dont think thats very useful for. dead people.

sliding in the sewer vibes are getting stronger by the minute today

#the talkies #everyone else is actually moving on with their lives and achieving stuff #i have no idea what the fuck i want to do with my life #looks like ive been ghosted after both my job interviews and i have no prospects of making money #wish i could just relive the last two days over and over again where i was tabling at expo #i was making at least some money and i was around something i enjoy and im excellent at it #i just dont know how to move forward from here without always wishing for a life i actually enjoy #this just sucks you guys #i really do just want to close my eyes and disappear

life hasn't been kind to me but i remembered i draw, i sing, i play piano & guitar, i cook, i tend the garden, i stitch & embroider, i write, i read extensively, & i speak 4 languages. i would have been an "accomplished woman" in the 1800s

#luckily i'm not 27 yrs old #i do have money & prospects #i'm not (anymore) a burden to my parents #& i'm definitely not frightened

#ive identified my current issue and its that im incapable of Choosing to do something bc of the Punishment of Choice #right now im sitting doing nothing with no prospects and i can just hollowly blame myself and my environment for it #if i chose to pay to get certs for a job or went back to school for another degree and i hated the outcome (job) #then its all my fault and i wasted money. #but my issue is like. i dont care enough about anything either...! all jobs will suck bc they are a job. shouldnt i just throw a dart #and go for one? ill always hate it. but what if i REALLY hate it and suck at it. idk. jealous of ppl who have and stick #to a calling that makes money. and have the brain for it. #torn rn bc someone suggested going into IT since u can just get a cert(s) vs a degree... #looking into it and its like well what if i hate it. ill hate any job but what if i really hate it and i wasted time and dollars. #what if im too stupid to do it. what if i dont even get a jawb. ill end up as i am rn but now its Worse and My Fault. ykwim #but like what else am i doing and what else would i even do? 0 direction rn. idk. im so lost #talkys

being in your 20’s sucks cause it’s like oh boohoo i have bills and pressure to make permanent life plans. guess i’ll get so stressed i want to kill myself about it

#op #i’m 22 i have no prospects no fucking degree #nothing to show for my fucking existence #alls i do is doordash for money and sit at home and cry about money #i have over $700 in medical bills from my infections and my doctor’s appointment that insurance decided not to cover for no reason #and i just. why am i pointless #i used to be smart and promising and want to do things with my future and now i’m just some #idiot ugly insufferable unemployed fuck who cries about everything and can’t sleep from stress #god. #AND ITS NOT EVEN AN ORIGINAL KIND OF MISERY #i can’t even claim to be unique for feeling this way!!! #so i won’t get any comfort for this other than. oh well Feeling Like That is Normal for your early 20’s #and i’m just expected to pick up and carry on and hope it gets better fucking. a decade from now #i don’t want it to be better a decade from now. i want it to be better now #whatever

I feel like my 30th birthday is somehow simultaneously careening toward me at high speed and slowly stalking me through the tall grass and I am a small beast with no idea how to respond

#it's in three days but this first week of january was at LEAST twelve days long #i don't have the kind of baggage that makes me dread birthdays on principle but this year is really just like. ugh. UGH. #and it's not even the Turning Thirty thing it's just... everything else in my life makes the prospect of a birthday really depressing #what do you do for such a big milestone when you have no money and none of the immediate people in your life want to be around you

#yammers #yeah sorry time for a tag post bc I gotta put this somewhere but. quietly #I get so few days where I don't wonder what the fuck I'm even doing here #and that wondering gets ramped up by the fact that there just. isn't anywhere else for me to be #bc I'm always gonna be far away from someone now #my home country is a dangerous shithole where I'm uninsured and jobless #(where I could raise my hire-ability by.... shelling out money I don't have to move away from family and friends #to get closer to where the action is. except it Barely is bc animation is in a freefall) #in my new country I can barely communicate with anyone and my job prospects are so up in the air #that I have to waste my day doing the most demoralizing ugly work I've ever done for a job I don't want #because my visa requires that the country deem my presence PROFITABLE!!! #and I'm burned out to hell and back from running paperwork last year to move here #and it never stopped. it never ever ever stops. I am never ever EVER doing enough #practice french. more. more. MORE. learn this program. learn that program. test for this. apply to that. never hear back. get rejected. #go do paperwork again. figure out your taxes #WRONG. do it again. go get groceries. do the dishes again. put the laundry away again. #there's no space for your stuff. you barely have any stuff because you had to get rid of it all. #do something you don't want to do. again. again. smile! have fun! be charming! connect! network! stay longer! #I just want to curl up in a ball and disappear for a month or two #let me summer hibernate #it's so fucking hot here anyway I'd prefer a cave #negative /)/-)&$

i wish i didn't need so much external validation that i'm not worthless but my desire to perform well has been ingrained in me since early childhood

#it is v difficult when you can't function like other people #other people are operating without the pain and fatigue and jetlag #they naturally sleep at night and wake up in the morning #they don't have to rest in bed for several days after exerting themselves #they don't wake up unable to move #none of my accomplishments matter bc i'm physically too far behind everyone else #and it's hard not to see that as an indicator of my worth as a person and the value i contribute to society #bc if i don't earn money then how am i earning my right to exist #but that's a stupid way of thinking. no other animals think that way lol can you imagine a cat having an existential crisis #but still all the time i want to hear ''you're doing a good job'' ''you're not lazy'' ''you're not a leech'' ''you've accomplished a lot'' #this is what happens when you're a really good student and nothing else #until you get diagnosed with multiple Try Making it to Class Like This You Loser diseases 😐 #and then school is over and you made zero connections and have zero prospects bc it was all you could do to fuckin graduate w honors #bc that's all that mattered

going from being ashton all week to being my legal name again is honestly one of the worst feelings in the world

#ashtonstfu #also i either have to quit my job and move to illinois with my parents in like less than four months or uh hope i can find a job that can #support me AND a place to live based off that salary before they move and honestly #i’d rather fucking die than have to move with my parents but i have zero job prospects so #idk i guess i’ll just hope i die in my fucking sleep #and like i can’t blame my parents like i know it’s a good paying job my dad has and like he likes the area but like #CAN YOU FUCKING GIVE ME TIME #i won’t even offically have my degree til like may even tho i’ll be done in march #i’ve applied to literal hundreds of jobs but since my skills aren’t the best cause i don’t have any real world experience no one wants to #even interview me or train me or ANYTHING and the only way to get better is my practicing but i need more structure or something and if #someone would just be willing to train me at a fucking job i could do it!! but no one wants to do that except fucking sales jobs and i cant #do that shit again it is soul crushing #anyways i’m gonna have a full on mental breakdown cause uh #i’m too fucking overwhelmed i don’t have anything and i can’t move with them it’ll be a nightmare #if they would just slow the fuck down i might have a chance but we have a fucking realator coming thursday and i have so much shit to clean #i don’t know what the fuck i’m supposed to do #even if by some miracle i get a job i have no credit and no money so fuck finding a place to live #it’s impossible #i’m gonna go throw up probably

nothing like the last 2 weeks of the semester to make you question every life decision you've ever made

#damien.txt #why did i major in history and english instead of.... idk. something that makes money. that has job prospects #that doesn't have to have a grad degree just to mean something #currently really evaluating if academia is for me lol but maybe it's just the time of the semester #but also.... fuckkk man i have no idea what i want to do with my life At All. in any way. #anyways its 4 am & my brain refuses to let me sleep bc i have So Much To Do tomorrow that it doesnt want the day to end #but also... fuck my life is going to be so hard in about 3 hours #wish me luck i guess. fml.

This is what it feels like to be a closeted queer in a homophobic household hearing your family talking shit about lgbt while you're slowly dying inside (but you gotta smile through the pain because you can't blow your cover)

#can't wait to move out #but economy is shit and rents are sky high :') #i have no money no prospects and I'm frightened #i know im gonna get disowned if i come out #and im financially not ready for that. yet. #dont think its sth you can be ready for emotionally. i mean i say idc but like. i probably do. a lot. even though I hate my parents #its like whenever my mom tells me she loves me no matter what im like no you dont. you think you do but you don't #you dont know shit about me. youll never accept who i am and i hate you for that #but you're still my mom and part of me still loves and wants to be loved by you even though I hate you #gonna watch people coming out to their supportive parents and cry like a baby #im so envious and bitter #rant

Worrying I'm developing a case of senioritis, not in the screw-this-I'm-just-not-going-to-do-it way, but in the holy-shit-can-I-please-finally-just-be-done way

#when i complain about losing all of my 20s to school i'm not complaining about losing my 'best years' or 'party years' or whatever #i'm complaining about how with each passing year i am slowly losing more abilities and having more pain and health issues #my guess is that chronic stress has caused a good deal of them #so by the time i graduate i'm going to be 27 (no money no prospects lol) with no driver's license no savings no plans no apartment - #- and constant pain. #all for a BA in gender studies #so i'm feeling a liiiiittle fucking down. #i've liked being a student. it's the only thing i know how to do. but now i am ready to do Other Things With My Life please. #at least with a 9-5 you have your weekends free AND you're making money #me i have to cram hours and hours of work in on the weekends while everyone is home and making noise bc i don't have time during the week - #- because of my 3-4 hour collective commute / class / MORE work / pain from being out all day #i kind of hate hearing my irl friends complain about their jobs to be honest

[minniti]

i’m tired of school. i want to graduate and make money already. want to get off work and be fucking done. go get drinks. read my books. do my side hobbies. but no. i picked three years of graduate study. i’m exhausted.

#like YES it was the smart thing to do and i have to keep telling myself it’ll be worth it because it will be #two masters degrees in three years #my job prospects will be insane and if i keep pursuing business corporate work i will be very successful #but i’m DONE WITH SCHOOL #IM DONE BEING POOR AND BUSY #I WANT TO MAKE MONEY DAMN IT

So jealous of people who also foolishly majored in the liberal arts but then transitioned into tech. theyre always like yeah i just taught myself to code. HUH???? i thought we majored in fuck ass majors like poli sci bc we couldnt do shit like that…..i thought you were one of us….

#it’s not like i actually want to do tech i just want money and actual job prospects #but every fucking job is tech based #like so many entry level NON PROFIT jobs require tech skills and im usually qualified or mostly qualified for those jobs #except for the tech stuff #and when u major in poli sci and history like a retard thats all you have #but now i dont even have that bc they expect u to know fucking r studio and stata or some shit like stopppppppp #no more tech. Enough.
