Right now I'm around 8 months -- the longest ever since I've been employed.  Couldn't get a job at college, and couldn't get my old job back (which is COMPLETE bullshit) over the summer, so now I"m living off student loans (stupidstupidstupid)

I haven't had a job in about two years now, other than working at a restaurant for a short while. Before that I did some care giving for alzheimers patients, and while that was fulfilling, it was also a lot of hard work.

Now I am starting school in the fall and going into either Fish and Wildlife, or Forestry. I wouldn't mind working in either of those fields, I just have a serious problem with doing the minimum wage jobs I'm able to get in my town.

2 1/2 to 3 months. I don't like going without work for long periods of time. I have to many addictions to feed (ie plants, glass art and other forms of art, psychedelics, handmade unique steampunk, glass, and wire wrap jewellery, crystals). Hahaha Plus, no work makes me feel bored and unaccomplished.

Since I started working at 14, it would be the past 7 months that I haven't had a job. I've done stuff here and there for some cash, but not a real job.

Not having a steady source of $ is really shitty.

I go to school full time though so it's not like I'm not doing anything.

i spent 12 years in construction drawing plans, mostly on the civil/private development side. i gave that up to be with my wife for her career in northern crete last year. she decided one day out of the blue that i wasn't an essential part of her life anymore after we got settled and i came back home in january, moved in with my parents and am going through a divorce. i can't go back to my old career because of the economy and the gap in my work history, so i started my own business doing junk removal and am jumping through hoops to get funding for school. i'd like to be independent record label owner and write and sell my own music online as well as perform live. i'd also get back into doing visual art. i think my art is where my path in life is.

i haven't really had any steady work since february last year. i went from living debt free with plenty of money in the bank and disposable income to do whatever i wanted to uhm, well, poverty in the span of about a year. i've slowly been stripped of every single piece of comfort and shred of stability since i left the country last year, with the last being the woman i loved, my pets, my independence and my only stake thus far in what was supposed to be a happy life. been a bit of a rough ride.

Shit sucks man sorry to hear the shit you went through. But there is
always light at the end of the tunnel if you choose to see it. Thats
what I tell myself atleast. Good luck with the art thing man. That is
the path im walking myself. Just need some money to get my paintings
photographed and try to get my shit into galleries and shit. Gona be
tough by I know I can do it.

the way i see it, things are the way they are because they can't be any other way. in the wake of my life being destroyed i'm finding the will to finally pursue what truly makes me happy. my current set of circumstances are only temporary and i know there's more out there for me, intellectually and romantically.

thank you btw.

For my sidejob, I kind of make things that corespond with upcoming holidays and sell them out on a 4 way intersection. I actually make really good money doing it. For Christmas, I made and sold Fir Boughs with pine cones attached to the tops. I made $260 dollars in two days! :eek:

Just be creative and think outside the box brother.
