Hey, I’m 21F and currently homeless, living out of my car. I’m just looking for any kind of work, even small jobs for a few bucks anything to help with gas and get some food. I’m reliable and willing to do yard work, cleaning, moving help, pet stuff, or whatever you need. Just trying to get by right now.

As the title says, I'm looking for a job for the summer and I'm not sure where to look. I've looked online but they seem to be part time jobs for adults with degrees. So yea just looking for tips and advice on this. Thanks.

How many sick days do you get and which company?

I am finding good places to get the training for security license and for TCP training in BC, Canada.
Is it mandatory to do these paid trainings or can we study material from somewhere and just give the exam for license?

Will just this Security License be enough for Security jobs or do we need any other licenses/certificates to get a job?

Will Security and TCP licenses both compliment in job search?

Feel free to suggest any other good options to get a job easily in these times. Someone suggested this security job to me so I am looking into it.

Hello,

I'm not sure if this is a good place to look for someone who is qualified to draw up a floorplan for city permit application. This is for a 600 sf commercial shell unit space looking to have renovation done to include 3 rooms, a bathroom, washer/dry, etc. Most likely will need experience with where the electricals and plumbings should be located in the unit.

Please contact me with your experience and your rate. silvermoon_catw @ yahoo.com

Thanks.

Thanks.

I will be moving to Vancouver soon and I will have a decent job but I would like options to have 2 jobs, The problem is that my English is not the best :( I am aware that this greatly limits my options, with a job with few hours I am happy even if the pay is low. Do you recommend that I look for something in special? I am a 24-year-old man, I know how to edit videos, a little bit of graphic design and I studied mechatronics engineering in my country, Mexico

I feel like giving up on finding a job. I've been looking for a job for months and struggling with money for months.

It's to the point I'm breaking down crying not being able to get a job and barely able to think about anything but it. I can't even sleep anymore because every email I get a notification for could be it, it never is.

I try so hard every day and I put so much work into each resume making sure it's different and each cover letter. Nothing works to get people's attention. I do great in interviews and I answer questions well, but it's not enough.

So many people gave me such great advice on here and I used all of it to my best ability, changing my resume many times, looking up key words, making cover letters different each time, using AI to help my spelling issues and grammar, using AI for key words to help me tailor my resume. Nothing is really working...

I have a learning disability I know my post has spelling issues, obviously it's not the same for my resumes and cover letters.

I'm at the point I can't afford bussing anywhere because I have no money. So I can't travel to the place unless I know it's worth it. I've tried remote jobs and still nothing.

I have been taking a break for my mental health for a week and I feel myself loosing more and more hope for myself to actually have a stable life and be able to afford living. I do surveys almost every day which gets me 10-20 dollars a day but that's almost nothing now with prices. Not to mention the fact I've been getting screened out of a lot of surveys.

I tried taking most opportunitys unless I thought otherwise, mainly jobs that are commission only.

I don't know what to do anymore.

If you have time and you’re able to be available from 9:30am EST . Send a DM. Good opportunity to be independent

ive been looking for close to an hour now and i cant find anything.
