Ok im back in the same situation.

I cant hold a job for more than 3 months.Its really strange.
Its like when i have a relationship and things get to comfortable i run away from it.

I am back to being unemployed and will probably spend the next 4 months looking for a job
because it is so hard to get one where i live.

What should i do to try and hold down a job when i do get one?
I have tried cutting down my hours a bit before.
But i have rent to pay and stuff like that.

Looks like non stop job seeking for a while!

Then you must realise to do the hings you want you have to arn moeny to pay for it and I don’t think many people are in a job that they “want” to do but it is knowing why they are doing it that keeps them going back everyday.
You just need to try and realise that a job is not meant to be fun.

I hope you find another job and soon so you can carry on doing the things that you enjoy, maybe next time when you find yourself getting bored of what your doing take a few days off and leave your bank card with a friend so you can’t spend money and they get a dose of what not haveing a job is like, maybe that will stop you quitting so much?
