I want money because there are things I need and places I want to go that I cannot afford. So far, my focus has been on finding "a job" as a means of securing funds.
The report widely promulgated currently is that the job market is booming. There's lots of "work" and lots of employers are hiring and lots of people are finding jobs.
So my claim of "I can't find work" is viewed suspiciously by some.
I want money but I am not willing to do "anything" to get it.
I have rejected some offers and ideas because I've decided I am either unwilling or unable to --
work for $7 an hour or work 40 hours a week at a job I don't like or work for a company whose ethics are questionable or volunteer indefinitely in hopes of some day being hired or commute 45 minutes to and from a job that pays $10 an hour or break the law.
I hated the desperation and stress of job-hunting when I was younger. Now I hate it because the process favors employers rather than job seekers. It is a patently dehumanizing and unfair system and there seems to be no way and nowhere to file a grievance.
Maybe this bothers everybody as much as it bothers me but apparently it's the only game running.
Is there another way to get money?
