Just don't know what to do with myself anymore....

Does anybody else feel like this?
I've spent months sat here in my room doing the same shit everyday - its like groundhog day apart from theres no way out.
I'm looking for a job to earn some money and do something with myself but I hate them all and I don't want to do any of them! I've tried everything there is to try here where I live and I have no transport to get anywhere else and can't afford any.
Sorry to be a whiny MC whinerton but I really need some inspiration on what to do with my life - its just got so dull.
All I do is play guitat, play playstation, read / talk shit online and my chores.
Theres no women, no work and no hope where I am and I can't find the way out without lots of money.
I spent the last two years saving to get out of here - I still don't have enough and now I'm unemployable because I've already been to every shitty company and factory in this small town and they all suck!!!!!

That sucks; Im guessing you live in a small little shitty town. Theres a chicken shack or taco hut somewhere that will hire you. Or just go back to an old job and tell them you want your job back. Your chances of that happening is as good as any other employer as long as you didnt do something really insane at everywhere you worked or yur just a really shitty employee. Theres ways of promoting yourself and making money online, you could buy a router and host other people; or get a company online to host your website for $20 a mnth and either sell advertising or product. Tennstud sells horseshit online dude; dont tell me theres no hope; you just lost it. You got to get up and go get yours; nothing is going to just fall into your lap; you got to hustle like a gangster.

I know exactly how you feel. Being in this small shitty town the only thing people I know do for fun is drink and drugs. Don't do anything productive and I get to sit back and watch everyone I know fall apart while I can barely keep it together myself. I would recommend moving somewhere that you feel you can progress. There's a ten month college program here in AK that gets you in and out with a degree and sets you up with a high paying job because they want to keep the jobs in Alaska but everyone in Alaska is fucked in the head and wants to hire outside people to work up north here. If you can find some sort of school which has a similar program I would recommend looking into it.

grow some watermelons and sell them out of your truck or make breakfast tacos for workers who cant find a place to eat on their break since your town is so small. Denver was having gang wars for turf to sell Illegal pizzas on the corner from unlicensed kitchens; stuffed in legitimate pizza boxes. Theres a guy called the soup-peddler in texas Who delivers soup to jobs on a bike and a wagon; he pimps other people to ride bike and just makes soup now.

That's one of the coolest things I have ever heard of. It reminds me of selling stolen meat in the liquor store parking lot on Trailer Park Boys.

What am I gonna put my effort into ffs?
I tried fixing computers but only got about one call a month, despite tons of wasted money and effort on advertising.
None of the employers here will have me back and frankly I don't want to go back and be a robot who takes shit for minimum wage.
I've put alot of effort in - like I said I've been saving for two years straight in my last job to escape this town. I've been searching the web for an IT job because thats the only thing I want to do - I've just done a search on the entire of my country and only found 1 that I can apply for (I am appling for it).
Its easy to say put some effort in when you don't know how much effort I am putting in. I didn't want to be brought up in a shitty little town, it just happened that way cause my familys to fucking poor to go anywhere else.

You've got ambition but I really can't think of anything I could do here. Making workers lunches is one but the rules and regulations required for that are far beyond me. I know that you need to pay to attend courses before your even legally allowed to prepare food here.

I agree. and....dude your obviously not doing all you can. Go out there and get something. you say you dont want to work a shit job yet you wanna get out of that shit town. You have to make sacrafices. Work a shitty job and save you fucking money. Then get the fuck out of that town.
you have to actually do something man.
Cest la vie some times you gotta work shit jobs to make it.

I've done that for the past two years. Why don't you read the post before coming up with some cliche reply?
I just search the whole country for the job I want to do cause I'm willing to move where ever they are and theres hardly any of them.

Depending on your age you could look into Raleigh International,, or maybe VSO. It would cost you very little (possibly nothing), it'd definitely give you something to do.

Donate Plasma.
Sell your shit on Ebay.
Some of my friends have worked at jobs where the people that order shit off the television call you and order products. Work from home - and make money?!?!
...I don't really know what to tell you, I am in a bit of a rut myself, but I know there is hope still.

Get a restaurant job as a bus boy (not a server, because bussers make nearly the same amount and don't have to deal with the custies).
Earn up 2 grand and move away. That's what I'm doing... Only thing is I've got lots of bills to pay as well so I'm stuck here for a few more grand than that hehe.
But I know how you feel, as everyday I feel similar. I hate getting up in the morning and doing the routine, I hate looking out the window around this desolate dry places of brown and nothing green. The angry people, the lack of pretty girls...

WTF, you have 15,000 and can't afford to move? All you need is a plane ticket or a UHaul and your gone- to wherever you want to go. Settle down for a month, find a job and you're set. Move to a city so it'll be easy to find a good job. It's not hard.

You have to ask yourself what you want to do next, not necessarily for the rest of your life.. and do it!
I want to leave everything behind, this world of material goods, economy, politics, and go back to a state of nature where I sleep on the forest floor and pick berries for survival, and learn about myself and the world by simply living outdoors.
So it sounds crazy to most people, but my dad always told me that what I choose to do next doesn't have to be what I choose to do for the rest of my life.
Hope you can get yourself out of your rut.

buy a backpack, put some stuff in it that you would like to have with you for the next 6 months, leave your house, and start walking.
