Person help: I’m having trouble finding a new job. - Help.com

I’m having trouble finding a new job.

And every time I try to explain what’s going on, it just sounds like I’m making excuses. But I’m just feeling really overwhelmed and anxious right now. I can’t afford to be unemployed. It’s frustrating. I had no trouble finding a job when I was already employed. But now no one wants to hire me. And it’s made worse because I’m not the sort of person to take risks very often, and the one time I actually do decide to take a risk and pursue something I wanted (and it took a long time to get over my fears and decide I actually wanted it), it all blew up and left me worse off than before :( (I’m aware of how pathetic that sounds, thanks.)
I don’t even know what the point of this post is. It’s not going to solve anything. I guess I just wanted to rant.
Anyway. Back to the applications, I guess. Thanks for reading.

Um… really anything at this point. But my last job was as a sales assistant and I was actually not too bad at it, so another sales job would be good.
