Phil is a troll - he's not here to listen to anybody's advice.

No, I have emotional issues which do hold me back and I take that as very insulting that you talk to me in such a rude way.

how about working in a library? my brother has many diabilities and he works part time in the local library and loves it.

It makes me wonder why everyone else can get decent jobs but I cannt!

I am really confused - you want an office job because you don't want to work in a shop or a call centre, but you don't want to take ad admin role because it's beneath you? Nobody walks into a top management job straight after graduating anymore. You have to start at the bottom and prove you are good enough to be promoted up the ladder, just like everyone else. The degree should help you go far, but only if you prove your worth - it's not a golden ticket.

I'm wondering how your CV is set out? Presumably you are using a competency based one that highlights all your transferable skills? And you will have some if you've been to Uni - computer skills, presentation skills, communication skills.

Have you registered with temping agencies? I did this when I first left Uni, some days I'd be doing data entry, other days I'd be helping put packs together for conferences - I just did whatever companies needed help with.

All this talk of Lush has decided me on a long, hot soak in the bath

I know my parents are right that I have wasted my time and the last 16 years of schooling as I am completely unemployable and all my life is wasted.

What wonderful, supportive parents you have.
