Being threatened to get a job

I don't like feeling useless. I would be job hunting anyways

Yet before this month began, I was given until the end of July to find a job or the internet would be cut

...Big problem there is:

1) Most places here aren't even considering hiring, some even closing their doors
2) Some places only let you apply online
3) So HOW am I supposed to monitor whether or not I got into the classes I wanted in the fall when I have to monitor that online?

>.> Not to mention that, due to this and more, I'm going to get more edgy the closer to the deadline I get, and may start getting rejected because of seeming desperate >.>

    Does the one threatening to cut off the internet even know what kind of economy we're in? They are being unreasonable expecting you to just get a job like magic.

    Internet would be cut?

    That's better than my parents threatening to kick me out of the house, possibly with or without three months of rent as a temporary subsidy when they do.

    The only consolation is that I am notsureifserious.jpg.
  • Quit being a whiny bitch and man up.
    I'm pretty sure they'll be reasonable if it's regarding school or tracking the status of employment; dicking around on TvT won't rate that high.

    Go get a job.

    Well look at places that are employing students at the moment. A lot of them will need to hire replacements when people go back to school and stop working or start working a lot less.

    You'll just have to prostrate yourself in front of any company that will hire younger workers as they can be paid less due to a lower minimum wage.

    So supermarkets et al.
    Also your family will probably understand your educational needs for the internet.
