Another day of going door to door job hunting, another day of rejection and to top it up just walked 3 km in 35degrees Celsius to get home to find the electricity is off and someone smashed my post box. Gosh is this what life is about?

I'm sorry you're having a bad day ((lost,in,rsa)). Here is what I get from your post - you're a person who doesn't give up, to keep looking for a job. You got some great exercise by walking 3 km's - you're one tough cookie. I hope you find a job, get the electricity back on and bad vibes to whoever smashed your post box.

Thanks I don't mean to complain but I really am having a hard time finding a job see I also have a lot of bills, my electricity is off cuz I haven't paid the bill its R750 ( about 80 $)doesn't sound like a lot my the average starting salary is R2500 ( 300$) a month and my rent is half of any prospective salary,iv also got 3 mouths to feed. Rent is overdue aswell I'm drowning in that and I can't seem to find the silver lining to anything. Really feeling sorry for myself.

Hi lost in rsa, from a fellow South African, I truly empathize. You have a very small starting salary. But for SA, sounds about right.

You are facing many challenges and I hold out much hope and strength that a good job opportunity comes your way, and hopefully a job with a higher salary.

Have you visited employment agencies (for what that's worth)?

I don't know what province you're from but perhaps your municipality would be prepared to work out a payment plan for you. I've done this when I fell behind with my rates.

PM me if you wish, I often pop on during the day.

Strength to you.
