You say you don't have a lot of skills, but don't forget 'soft skills'. These are things which often people lack and it means they have difficulty in the workplace, they are things like communication (listening, understanding others, persuading others, putting a point across) and working well with others (recognising that ppl are different and have different approaches and ways of working). If you are good at getting on with others chances are you have loads of soft skills which are really valuable in any workplace!0
