Lucky breaks I guess. I been in the same situation. If you have experience they want a degree, if you have a degree they want experience. All I can say is good luck.

Go for the entry level positions. The grunt work, the jobs no one wants, etc.

*wish.. not which lol

Well i just joined my church so i cant put them down as of yet. I put down respectable family and friends but i dont really talk to them so if they do get a call it will be out of the blue and they probably wouldnt know what to say about me. My mom told me to call them and let them know but im horrible at making phone calls. Idk y ive just always been that way
