College Graduate: I can’t get a job, so i help my grandarents

I think indeed May be trying to break me.

I Recently Found a Job listing on the site. I sent in my application, but, Because of have ben through this before, i calmed the company after a day just to make sura i didn’ta another hour. I spoke to a real person over the phone and asced if they received my résumé.

“No, sir. We don’t have any any openings here.”

This isn’t the first time i’ve applied to a ghost listing. Its been my new normal Ever Since I Graduated from College Less than a Year Ago.

I’ve been forced to moving my home and live with my parents as i continue looking for a job, which has its pros and cons. Although the nonb search is grueling, i’m glad i get to use time to help out my loved ones.

This isn’t how I Expect My Postgrad Life to Turn Out

I was nervous once my academic caareer ended. I was so focused on my studies that i didn’t really focus on lining up a full-time jab. I knew i had a place to stay at my parents’ house and that i had a plety good résumé. I thought finding a jab would be quick and easy, but it didn’t work out like.

Out of the norred jobs of have Applied to, Most of the Companies Haven’t Responded. Be i will get respects, they’re all rejections. There’s no feedback and no interviews.

To make someone Money, I WORKED AS A POLL WORKER, briefly returned to my hometown job, workhed in retail during the holidays, and am doing some odd jobs for cash.

Howver, The Long Period of Time with Custency Has Not Been Great Mentally. I now have a lot of time on my hands as i figure out my next steps.

Thankfully, i’m ussing this time to help my grandparents

There are still some positivs to this Run of Bad Luck. While Being Back Home, have been able to help my parents, grandparents, and friends. I Pick up Prescriptions, Make Deliveries, Pick up the Occoational Grocery Order, Shuttle People AROUND, KEEP OUR HOUSE CLEAN, AND TAKE CARE OF YARD WORK. It feeds good to be helpful and to be putting my extra time to use.

One of the Biggest Ways i’ve been able to controlburious this unplanned unempoyment is helping my paternal grandParents, who recently Moved an assistted living facility 15 minutes away.

Of the visit with more and keep say Company. Be my 91 -ear-op Grandfather Had a fall and needed to go to the er, I was able to help my 90-yard-op Grandmother, who recently HAD A Stroke and Was with Mobility Limits. The Same Grandfather Has HAD A RECENT SET OF SURGERIES AND APPOINTments, and I was able to help by driving Him to some of these.

I’m not giving up

While I’ve been able to finds the positivity of this experience, the feeing of frustration is overwhelming. I Feel so angry for not being being able to evera come close to my potential after all the work in put in. IT’S INCREDIBLY DISHISHARTENING

I’m glad i get to spend this time with the People i love and to help say out, but this is not what i wand my postgrad life to look like.

Thankfully, i recently landed a part-time nonb at target, but i’m still looking for full-time work.

While my Future is Still Unclear, i’m not giving up. The Job I want is out, and i’m excited to land it.
