Well the problem with volunteering is I need money. Pretty badly. I'm back in my mothers house now and... lets just say I don't want to be here long. If I'm spending my days volunteering I can't go on job interviews or search for jobs on the internet/newspaper etc. I was looking for work in building management/apartment brokering since that was what I was doing before the economy took a nosedive, but the market in NY is so completely decimated there's no work in it. Now, I'm basically looking for anything that isn't McDonalds.

One reason why I said I really think I have to change my attitude towards a more agressive, self-centered demeanor is most of the people I was working with still have jobs. I was always the "nice guy that dealt with old ladies", while they were dealing with the big money accounts. I mean, I'm not gonna get ahead in the world off tiny commissions. Granted I was basically working two jobs at once managing and brokering while all they were doing was brokering, but it still didn't change the fact I wasn't making nearly as much cash as them. Anyway, I'm getting a bit sidetracked, this is the relationship forum :x
