No one wants to hire me because (1) I don't have the experience they're looking for, (2) I have zero people in my network, and (3) I don't have the social skills to overcome all the other negatives. It's very simple. The problem is that overcoming these 3 items simultaneously has proven to be almost impossible.
I'm in the same boat as you. We should have tea and biscuits while planning armed resistance against the billionaire class.
I'm not a tea guy but I'll devour the biscuits. And fuck billionaires ofc.
Count me in too...
I don't know which jobs you're looking at, but the thing is that many jobs require problem solving skills. And it seems you have none. Sadly, it's completely up to you to acquire them.
Engineering
Lmao I have problem-solving skills out the wazoo, and I have projects and hobbies to show it. But it's never enough to overcome my lack of a network and general weirdness.
