  • You’re getting good advice here, especially @Doomsider@lemmy.world

    2 months isn’t that long and you should keep your head up and keep trying. Discouragement and lack of effort are the enemy.

    I would add, consider your target industries. Different industries have different cycles and levels of available positions. If you’re mostly looking in retail, this might not be the right economy or time of year, etc. One industry that usually has high demand and might overlap with psychology is health care. Assisted living, home health care, and many related non-medical care environments have consistent staffing challenges and don’t require specific degrees in nursing or medical, etc. I paid my way through college that way and learned a lot of life lessons, including the reasons that work isn’t for everyone. YMMV

    There are probably some other under employed unglamorous jobs in your area if you look with fresh eyes. And as others said, volunteering some free time could be a win win, doing stuff keeps the spirit up and being involved creates opportunities.

    The underfunded school, or its expensive insurance will pay, raising rates and eroding the service of public education further.

    I found out here in CA public schools are paying several percent of total budget to cover liability from the past where kids were harmed.

    These are not for profit, these are not businesses. When they pay, the taxpayers pay, and the kids lose service.

    But whatever, she got hers. Big smile.
