nope maybe you did not read what i said. i will not volunteer theres no money in it. like i always ask how am i gonna get there with no means of money myself? i am talking about how am i gonna put gas in the car or get a bus pass? as i said i dont live in a close knit state things here are driven by car mostly and we have a lightrail system and bus.

until someone gives me something as to how am i gonna get to point A or B then ill be more incline to listen. volunteering has benefits but there is no rewarding benefits like a check to keep me getting to the job. i do not volunteer for a job i am volunteering to give me gratitude. will they give me a bus pass? no, unless i am a fully paid employee thats how it works.

always the same dumb advice go volunteer. money is more important to me sorry but people seem to forget in this economy how to pay the bills, we have a money system all over the world, so until there's a new way of getting around without money ooh id love to know that! i am amazed for most money is not an issue supposedly for unemployed people it should unless you got tons of money stashed away to the point you are not hurting and can live just fine until u get a job.

i think most "professionals" or unemployed people still got this ideology of if i volunteer i will get a job. i do agree it will get you references and connections but nobody can work 6 mos without a check. the job market is horrible yet ppl say oh go volunteer. well, i have my opinions just like everybody else and sorry to say, volunteering does not fit my situation right now. the advice out there needs to be better to fit people's situations not everybody can do the same thing as others to get by in this economy.
