Hello,

Thank you for replying to my post...Yes a few days later now since I posted that and I thought I'd post an update about myself....Still no job, still no schooling...unemployment has finally run out...Sept. 20th was the one year anniversary of me not having a job...my car insurance will be cancelled on the 29th because I won't be able to pay them by then...my car payment will be two months late as of october 1....macys, sears, nj turnpike (tolls), t-mobile, sallie mae and i'm sure there a couple others are all asking me for money (bills)....my only option is to get a job....some more background on me.....i have worked several jobs since i was 16.....as a junior in high school i helped design and promote website for a very small ..i mean very small.. 5 employee company that was in my town......it might sound nice, but it was very boring and i probably was not paid right...i mean minimun wage for that type of work...but hey i was 16 and it was an intro in to the work world for me, so i appreciate it for what it was and the experience i got from it....and they lost out in the end since i just never came back from christmas vacation after being there for a year and a half....so after my senior year in high school was over my mother gave me an altimatem (spelling) either go to this computer school or go live with your father...i wasn't comfortable enough to go live with my father so i choice the computer school...kind of forced to do it....so while their for the 7 month program, it was basically like being in adult highschool...i liked it better than being in highschool though because most of the people were older, a lot older than me so the anxiety level was kept to a minimun but of course not totally gone....back to how it was being in the computer school...my feeling is that i didnt try hard while their since i was forced to go and was not sure why i was really there. i mean, computers interest me and yeah maybe i could understand what was being taught, but i just did not have the will power to do really well there...however i did get my diploma there and ended with about a c+ average, yay....going there hasn't been worth anything to me to this day, 3 years later.....(mind you there are a host of other social and emotional problems i am having all through out my high school and post high school to present day, but the degree of these problems vary and lighten as time and events take place) after the computer schooling was over, i was happy and could just go back to doing nothing and waiting..from then to now i had two other jobs, the last of which really left me with a very bad taste in my mouth for people in the work place and how low they can be......so where am i at now? well i told you in the beginning.. no job and basically no money. we just moved into this new house about a month in a half ago....we relocated to south jersey from north jersey, so i know NO one down here and my days are very boring and uneventful...i do like it that i can go to beach often since its so close to my house and things like that...i keep myself busy by keeping up on current events like politics and things going on in the world, i have interests in those things....but right now that means nothing since i dont have any idea what i am going to do other than "get a job" of some sort..i am thinking of either home depot or lowes right now...but an evening shift...look at me thinking i can even get in at those places, maybe they are not even hiring, why would they want me...how would i know...this sucks
