Will I ever get a job?

I feel like I will never get a job. I am shy and I am pretty much a useless person. Everyone is so lucky. I tried to apply for jobs but I had no luck.

What makes you think your useless? You will find something

I'm on a training course but I have to wait 2 weeks or so until I can come in. The people are trying to increase the number of people for the course. It's frustrating. It's business administration. I feel like no employer would hire me.0 -

I only had one but that went bad. I tried to apply to shops, cleaning jobs. I had no luck. They either say the job is not available or some pathetic excuse on the phone. When I email them, they never seem to email back. It makes me mad! :mad: Gosh... I will be homeless if this carries on.0 -
OP perhaps the training course will help you feel better about yourself, why don't you try getting a part time job in a bar or food shop whilst you finish your studies.It's better to regret something I did do than to regret something that I didn’t. :EasterBun0

The course, is it through college? Is it part time/full time?
Are you claiming benefits? you can possibly get help to pay rent if you are not living at home.
Have you signed up with an agency? Care work is fairly easy to get in to.0 -

I don't want to do care work. I want to do administration. I haven't signed up with an agency. I'm not on benefits and I live with my parents. The course is full time.0
