Get your trucking license, drive a truck, no lifting easy job, drive around the country and get paid anywhere from 60K - 200K a year, there's lots of opportunity out there you just have to be comfortable with yourself doing something your not use to.

Unemployment centers are fairly useles at this point.  They repeat what is gone with over and over.  Not saying can't get advice, and one person there I talk to has actually written on the subject of employment.  It is just they don't have anything new they had.  One I know local I went to, I found way before the state took it over, talking back in the 1990s actually.

Problem with anything retail related now for me is the lifting.  With that, my repeated attempts to apply at Gamestop, for example, go nowhere.  I could consider B&N though.

On the last part, I could look to dust off some other Bible also.  Thing about my days is that I need to be more strategic, and if it was just reacting to what came in the door this day, I wouldn't be opening up other stuff.  I also have the usual faith issues.  That is another area I try to press through on.

There is like lots of way to go, so get overwhelmed thinking of doing whatever.  I had assume truck driving required knowing how to drive manual, which I don't know how to do, so I hadn't looked into it.  I also assume there were fees to get training, which I am low on.

I know there is some exams coming up for office work in the DMV I will be looking into.

Try talking to them to see if they can help you on your quest to find a non lifting job. For example, give you a list of jobs that could suit your habilities. Something like that.

Just be careful to not overthink things or not rationalize too much. Sometimes you can reach a point where you just won`t know where to go, because of that.
About the faith issues, I don`t know if this applies too you but, faith isn`t just a question of facts like many try to put it. It`s also  about the person you are. Like everything in our lives, when trust is needed, we have to be strong and trust, because more than what happens, we also need to look to whom is behind what happened. You know, there`s always a heart behind things... and there`s one that is just good.
Hope you sort out your feelings.

so why can you not take any job that there is on offer?you have a roof over your head,food,internet access,car, right?

you are living with parents,are they house owners,i admit i do not fully know your situation but i have seen your threads over the years

first off you have to get out of the negative mind mentality it sounds cliche and easier said than done but you do seem to have an excuse or reason for not doing,like heavy lifting for example,now i am not saying this is the case but you need to concentrate on what you can do not what you can't do,if your situation is that serious and you are falling through the cracks

like i say i do not quite understand your whole situation or where you indeed live in america but there surely must be jobs to do,however undeisrable they might be if that is your way out for you,working,but i do not fully know the usa welfare system and what benefits you have/entitled,but it sounds like you do not have a flat/house

is it a question of you just needing a job or are things more complicated than that

Telemarketing is an option. They're always hiring for that over here and you pretty much need nothing.

You can move in with me bro! You can sleep on the couch and as long as you don't steal and pawn my shit, we would be cool! Or fuck that let us go up to one of my parent's houses in Tenn. (Smokey Mountain area) and chill up there in the cabin. I'll smoke you out and we will get part time / full time shit jobs in town but it doesn't matter too much cause we only need a few hundred to put towards bills! Tenn it is?

My situation is more than just needing a job, period.  There is a case of needing a job that pays enough to be on my own.  The situation I am in is not sustainable and i need to get out.  Add in other factors, and I am looking to slip through the cracks here, deciding whether to hit rock bottom now or later.  In short, lose most of my stuff, end up fully on public assistance, and hoping maybe in 5 years I can get back to where I am.  Do I take the hit now, or later?  Retail-wise, the bulk of the jobs there are out if requiring lifting.  I would look to push cashier maybe in that.  Technically, I am not really in a place where i could get hired, due to being out of things too long.  Phone support from home is also out.  This environment costs of one parent who has yelling breakouts throughout the day, can't control himself, and uses death threats in language to communicate.

Pretty much, unless things break, I am likely to jump into the social safety net and hope it holds, not caring what idiots on the internet say who end up calling people who end up there bad names.  Out of this comes a question, based on this: If you know of this going on, what exactly could you personally do to prevent it from happening?   And with this, on a personal level, I would end up saying that consider this post a good bye, if I end up dropping off here.

I will end up saying I understand where Craig T Nelson is coming from.  There doesn't seem anyone who will help prevent you from slipping or give you a hand up.  Maybe if you have family, you get that, but the system just keeps people on life support.  It really isn't help.  Pretty much the public assistance kept him alive, but did anyone actually get him anywhere to where he is?  He likely had to do it alone.

This is the interview here, which has what I wrote about above, plus also what has been framed as people who do get government help, not apparently thinking they get any help from the government:

^ If you mean telemarketing from home, that isn't how it works. Do you have InfoCision in New York? People make a living off that. Not the best, but a living.

No, phone surveying through a local contract company as a possibility.  As for what I was talking about also, I was THIS close to ending up doing phone tech support for Apple through Kelly Services.  Found out I missed the window.  It would of likely ran into problems with my father have a rage volume problem where daily he breaks out yelling and making violent threats.  Pretty much, any work at home on the phone is out, if it is ongoing.
