Job application for jcpenney

I applied to a FAANG with a referral, talked to a recruiter on a Thursday and was told they hoped to pass on interview details on Monday.
Then nothing. Its been a week. I heard from my friend I'm still in the system as getting an interview. However, there appear to be changes in the department and position shuffling. It's an interesting job and I have a somewhat hard to find skill set for it.
HOWEVER, I always seeing delays or dysfunction in the hiring process as a huge red flag since it implies other projects they run are similarly delayed.
Maybe they just need more applicants to start the process and are having a hard time finding them? Am I being overly cautious? I do a lot of hiring myself and if we need someone, we move really quickly to full the position so I don't get this.

I have 3.75 years as a production engineer for deepwater for a supermajor. Over 9 months, I have been taking on reservoir engineering tasks (~10%-15% of work) to learn from and support the reservoir engineers on my team and expressed interest to change job functions.
That got denied since my function (production engineering) is stretched thin and cannot lose people. However, I am on the radar in case future opportunities pop up but I am not putting much faith in that possibility.
I have cleaned up and updated my resume and cover letter and started applying for reservoir roles elsewhere. However, it has been a while since I had to go on the job hunt and all I've been doing is applications on LinkedIn, etc.
So I wanted to make this post and ask for any general advice and experience from those who did this before?

• In particular, would it be better for my chances to target smaller companies?
• Am I targeting the right roles? I have been looking for reservoir engineering roles around the 2-5 YOE mark but would it be better to search for new grad opportunities? Though, I am not seeing many reservoir roles for new grads, all seem to ask for at least some experience.
• Would it be worth it or perhaps foolish to apply as a production engineer elsewhere and hope to make that swap to reservoir at a different company? (Going back to my point about smaller companies and wearing many hats - would it actually be more likely I could make a swap then?) Though, even if I were to remain a production engineer forever I still probably wouldn't want to do it at the company I am currently at so worst case I'd be doing the same thing, just elsewhere.

USA-based if that matters

I know the market is bad right now. But I have been applying for jobs since jan 2024. 2 interviews and less than 10 shortlists 500+ applications submitted. Please help me. Thank you.

Title + a few extra questions. I scrolled through the sub and tags about layoff unemployment but I don't know if I have everything I need/what to include in my appeal so any help would be appreciated. Sorry this is super long, I just want to make sure I didnt exclude any info that couldve been the reason for my claim getting DQ'd.
I was laid off back in Feb as a part of a mass layoff, and my last day on payroll was in early April. I applied for unemployment at the end of April, and submitted a request to backdate my claim by 2 weeks after finding out I was eligible for unemployment- I moved here from out of state in August for my full-time job, and didn't know I was eligible since I don't have a state ID, but had established residency by living and working here. The backdated claim was approved saying I had a good reason to backdate, and also said the law that applies are: RCW 50.04.030 and WAC 192-110-115. I was told I have until June 3rd to submit my weekly claims for those weeks, but I didn't see a section to file my weekly claim for those weeks in the website, just for my current weekly claims- So that's my first issue- idk how to get my Backdated Claim logs submitted (the option was not available before or after my DQ).
I had also submitted a request to do a combined wage claim for Washington and the state I lived previously where I was working part time, but I got a letter from Washington saying my state reported no work history for me. I have my W-2 to prove otherwise, and I don't think that had anything to do with my DQ since I was paid my first unemployment check the next week, and the amount I received was based only on my Washington income, but I'm not sure how I should go about appealing to see if I could still do a combined wage claim. It's a bit confusing since I was a student full time from Jan-May, but I was only part time <12 credits from May through December when I completed my program; neither of the laws cited mention anything about my enrollment so I don't think that was one of the issues for the DQ. The quarters my benefits are based on are July-Sep and Oct-Dec. So my second question is should I submit that appeal for a combined wage claim and just include my W-2 from my previous state, or do I need to provide more information in that?
As far as benefits and the DQ, I had received my first unemployment payment last week, but a few hours later I got a notification that I was disqualified for unemployment and I have no idea why - it cited the same laws as the backdated claim that was approved- RCW 50.04.030 and WAC 192-110-115. When I looked it up in the subreddit and on the website, it just sounds like the first one is for when someone files for unemployment while they're still employed, or dont meet the minimum 680 hours requirement in the base year. My official last day of employment and paycheck was April 3rd (I did receive a severance payment 2 weeks later for agreeing not to open an employment lawsuit in the future), and i applied for unemployment starting the next calendar week April 8th. I had worked for >800 hours over 20 weeks from Aug-Dec in Washington alone since I was full-time (not including hours from my other state or from Jan-Feb/April). I still don't 100% understand the hour eligibility across states/in state/across quarters but my point is I definitely had the minimum 680 hours.
Again I was also laid off not fired, it was a mass layoff where my role is eliminated and not replaced and not performance based. I have also been able and available this entire time, actively applying and interviewing for roles, logging that in my weekly claims etc and have not turned down any offers for work. I am also not on standby or anything.
That all said, idk what exactly to include in my appeal, I'm not even sure if I 100% understood the laws that they cited / what that correlates to. Right now I just am thinking I should include my dated layoff letter as additional documentation and maybe a link to a news article referencing the layoff, since I didn't include that documentation in my initial application, but I don't know if I need to include more information based on the cited laws, my part-time school, or out of state stuff?
Sorry again I know this is a ton of info, but any advice on these 3 issues would be greatly appreciated before I try to submit my appeals for anything

Hello,
I am planning on applying as a Tax Examining Technician (a long time from now, maybe a little over 2 years). I will probably apply to an area in/around Minneapolis MN or Madison WI. I've come to understand that it takes a long time from application to starting date. However, I also heard they hire a lot of Tax Examining Technicians so it may be different. My questions are as follows:

• How long should I expect it to take from application to hiring? I am on yearly contracts so my contract ends early March and I don't want to spend months without a job in the USA so I want to time it properly.
  
• Are the interviews in person or online? I would have to fly in from Korea to the USA to do the interview...
  
• The site lists that GS 5-7. I have a college degree so I should start at 6. However, I see other jobs distinguish for high academic achievement and give you an increase in level. I graduated with 3.87 GPA so I was in the top 5% of my class. Can I negotiate a step increase because of this, or do they not care about that for this position?
  
• After a year, I can apply for GS-7. After a year in GS-7, is there another path to upward mobility in terms of income that you recommend within the Federal Government where I can use this position as specialized experience?
  
• This is a stretch I think, because it's not as useful as Spanish, but is there any jobs I could consider in the future in the federal government that would value speaking 3 languages (English, Korean, and Japanese)?
  

So I got laid off from my admin assistant job at a engineering firm over a month ago. I'm on unemployment now and have had success getting at least 3-4 interviews a week. I've really been hoping to land a state job because at least it will be stable and I'll have full benefits. I've put in over a 100 applications, at least a quarter or more have been for the state. The job I interviewed twice for and got an offer from is for a bookkeeping/admin assistant job for managing multiple companies for one owner. They're offering me more than what I made at my old job but the benefits wouldn't start until after 30 days. I'd only get health insurance and vision for the benefits. Don't know if I should hold out for a state offer now that I'm getting all these state interviews or what. However I know better than to turn down a job considering how shitty the market is. But I'm not even sure if this new job would work out and I still want to go on interviews for the state if offered.

*Do Not message or add me just to unfriend me or ghost me. * Greetings future partner ❤️ I'm still searching for you. I have to be honest and say that I am losing hope trying to find you.Please be somewhere. I want my search for a partner to be over. I'm seeking adventure in my life with someone I can call a forever partner. I'm tired of the loneliness and the sheltered lifestyle that I've lived. It would mean a lot of you could read through this post so that I could make sure we are compatible. Even if we start off as friends that would be fine.
Here's to new beginnings and new connections. PLEASE make sure you READ through the WHOLE POST also please be respectful when messaging me * *If you're the type to be impatient, block, or ghost easily, then save both of us the trouble and DO NOT message me! I'm not trying to come off as mean but I'd much rather you not message me if you're the type of person to do that. If something isn't working just let me know. We're all adults.
Greetings, I am seeking a long term relationship monogamous with the end goal being matrimony. I am not one for playing around and being used casually as it doesn’t suit me personally. Ideally I'd prefer a man that has his life already in place so that I can be able to share life with him and for him to take care of me. I would expect my future man to have a fiscally stable job and be able to support me and our future family. I wouldn’t be opposed to being a housewife. There are few reasons why I would like to work or work part time: 1) Being abandoned with nothing, 2) I want to feel fulfilled and not bored. Happy to discuss possible dynamics, I'm flexible. I would love a synergistic partnership where we are both able to mold our minds and fill our hearts with warm affection. I will be there to support you throughout your journey and celebrate every moment with you. I want you to be proud of you just as you are with me. I want to show you that you are truly cared for and appreciated by gestures of love such as massages and other forms of entertainment. I would expect the same from you as well. Even if we are both working adults we can still make our relationship work in the best way possible. I have seen this come out well for people who are dedicated and willing to make their relationships work. For a strong relationship to occur I would expect effective (transparent) communication from you. If you are going to be busy just be honest and let me know you won’t be able to talk to me.Also, if you need your space both mentally and physically let me know. I understand that we all have our lives to attend to but it is incredibly important for people in a relationship to be transparent when circumstances arise in a timely manner in order to avoid future conflict. If this relationship isn’t going to work I would expect you to tell me and not ghost or block me before giving me a reason why. We are all adults so I would expect nothing but maturity. Starting out I don’t want the pressure of sex to be pushed onto me. I’d rather let time tell in all of its glory.
Now onto my true introduction
My name is Angie and I'm from Georgia in the United States. I've been lonely for quite some time and find it hard to find a soulmate in IRL. What I'm looking for is someone who I can connect with and have wholesome conversations with. I want to be able to treat my future soulmate well just as much as they do me. The biggest part of a long lasting relationship is the ability to communicate openly without worry. I'd love it if my significant other has a dark sense of humor and continues to crack me up non-stop. As cheesy as it may sound I long for those late night calls and cute texts. I want for us to drive out the very best in each other; become our support system. A little bit about me is that I grew up in Florida and not too long ago moved to Georgia. I'm currently in college to become an RN but I'm also passionate about cosmetic chemistry and nutrition so I may seek to build my own business in the future. I'm passionate about science and theoretical applications especially within the medical field. I'd appreciate it if my partner is open minded about varying topics and welcomes healthy conversations. Appearance wise I'm open to seeing if we have a connection and feel as long as you are well groomed and practice basic hygiene you are good. Although, I must say that attraction is key in a relationship so I will have to go off on that as well. To add on, I enjoy playing video games, exercising (I've been slacking off lately), cooking and baking (vegan), playing board games, reading, exploring nature, playing sports (basketball and soccer) for fun, and trying new experiences. I hope to save up and travel someday. It would be nice for my partner to be able to set up our travel itinerary.
My Physical Description:
I am a black woman who’s twenty five years old (almost 26 in December) with Afro-Carribean, Japanese and Swedish ancestry. I’d still consider myself black presenting since that’s more along the lines of what I appear as phenotypically. I have dark brown curly hair (Mainly 3c type curls) and brown eyes. I am 5 '4 on the thicker spectrum (not at all obese but thick boned and have thunder thighs). I am trying to exercise more to become fit. I used to weight lift when I was younger but since then have lost lean muscle mass. Having a partner that is willing to work out together sometimes is rather rewarding. A man who has drive and appeal is incredibly sexy. I would also like to point out that I am curvy and noticeable in certain aspects (I’ll leave it up to you to decide).
*You have to be MINIMUM 21 to date me *
If distance will be a problem and you aren't willing to make it work then DON'T MESSAGE ME!!
If you will be too busy to pursue a relationship then DO NOT contact me!! * *Again, No ghosters or blockers!! Seeking a person who seeks a relationship with God and/or is open to one Must be free from venerial diseases and must be willing to get tested(will discuss) Bonus points if you're vegan Ideally I would like someone that is taller than me (I’m 5’4) I prefer a man that is fit or trying to be. I'd prefer someone who is fiscally stable and able to support the both of us* A big red flag for me is smokers. It isn't good for your health nor is it sexy to me.* It's important for me to point out that I want children in the future and need someone who may want that as well. If you're interested in how I look and want to know more about me, message me. Although I don’t make it a huge deal, I do prefer White and East Asian men. But I do love all types of men and welcome them. As stated before I emphasize communication and would prefer you to be honest and say if something is wrong instead of ghosting or blocking without stating the reason. Fair warning if I can be socially awkward sometimes and don't know what to talk about so please be patient with me as I'm learning to be better conversation wise

Now onto my true introduction
My name is Angie and I'm from Georgia in the United States. I've been lonely for quite some time and find it hard to find a soulmate in IRL. What I'm looking for is someone who I can connect with and have wholesome conversations with. I want to be able to treat my future soulmate well just as much as they do me. The biggest part of a long lasting relationship is the ability to communicate openly without worry. I'd love it if my significant other has a dark sense of humor and continues to crack me up non-stop. As cheesy as it may sound I long for those late night calls and cute texts. I want for us to drive out the very best in each other; become our support system. A little bit about me is that I grew up in Florida and not too long ago moved to Georgia. I'm currently in college to become an RN but I'm also passionate about cosmetic chemistry and nutrition so I may seek to build my own business in the future. I'm passionate about science and theoretical applications especially within the medical field. I'd appreciate it if my partner is open minded about varying topics and welcomes healthy conversations. Appearance wise I'm open to seeing if we have a connection and feel as long as you are well groomed and practice basic hygiene you are good. Although, I must say that attraction is key in a relationship so I will have to go off on that as well. To add on, I enjoy playing video games, exercising (I've been slacking off lately), cooking and baking (vegan), playing board games, reading, exploring nature, playing sports (basketball and soccer) for fun, and trying new experiences. I hope to save up and travel someday. It would be nice for my partner to be able to set up our travel itinerary.
My Physical Description:
I am a black woman who’s twenty five years old (almost 26 in December) with Afro-Carribean, Japanese and Swedish ancestry. I’d still consider myself black presenting since that’s more along the lines of what I appear as phenotypically. I have dark brown curly hair (Mainly 3c type curls) and brown eyes. I am 5 '4 on the thicker spectrum (not at all obese but thick boned and have thunder thighs). I am trying to exercise more to become fit. I used to weight lift when I was younger but since then have lost lean muscle mass. Having a partner that is willing to work out together sometimes is rather rewarding. A man who has drive and appeal is incredibly sexy. I would also like to point out that I am curvy and noticeable in certain aspects (I’ll leave it up to you to decide).
*You have to be MINIMUM 21 to date me *
If distance is an issue and you aren't willing to commit then DON'T MESSAGE ME!!
If you will be too busy to pursue a relationship then DO NOT contact me!! * *Again, No ghosters or blockers!! Seeking a person who seeks a relationship with God and/or is open to one MUST be free from venerial diseases (must be willing to get tested) Bonus points if you're vegan Ideally I would like someone that is taller than me (I’m 5’4) I prefer a man that is fit or trying to be. I'd prefer someone who is fiscally stable and able to support the both of us* A big red flag for me is smokers. It isn't good for your health nor is it sexy to me.* It's important for me to point out that I want children in the future and need someone who may want that as well. If you're interested in how I look and want to know more about me, message me. Although I don’t make it a huge deal, I do prefer White and East Asian men. But I do love all types of men and welcome them. As stated before I emphasize communication and would prefer you to be honest and say if something is wrong instead of ghosting or blocking without stating the reason. Fair warning if I can be socially awkward sometimes and don't know what to talk about so please be patient with me as I'm learning to be better conversation wise

Firstly, thank you for all the replies for the thread I posted a few days ago.
To give context to my application:
Most of the jobs I have applied to are related to Data Analyst and similar positions. This is because I studied Math/Stats and some Computer Science at the UC next door, have almost two years of experience in a very similar industry position, and have spent nearly a decade tutoring statistics and mathematics to college students.
I scored 95 on the RESEARCH DATA SPECIALIST I/II, the RESEARCH DATA ANALYST I exams (I haven't received the RESEARCH DATA ANALYST II scores yet), as well as the AIR POLLUTION SPECIALIST and INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY ASSOCIATE exams.
I have applied to many jobs since the end of last year!
I have a few questions:
While I have industry and academic experience, I haven't graduated yet (I am about to). Do you think this might hurt my chances?
I have read old posts about references. Is this something that gets asked after you have an interview, or is it another document you are supposed to have on hand when applying online?
Perhaps I have a bad resume?
To the hiring managers for the aforementioned positions, what do you look for, what are red/green flags?
I know I am asking alot, but I am wondering if there is anything wrong with my applications for both gov and non gov jobs as I don't get any interviews!

Finding internships about the environment and engineering are pretty scarce in my area, at least from the websites I'm looking at. All I found was a internship of being on a campaign team to peform leadership, or distribute information for citizens to vote for the congress women the campaign team is for. It seems like a cool job and even comes with a chance to get a letter of rec from a congress member.
Now I'm wondering if I should even take this job, as it doesn't exactly align with being a environmental engineer or environmental science, and would it look bad on a college application if this internship is more political focused while my other activities are environmental focused? Or should I message the avaliable environmental internships, but they mostly only accept applicants with a highschool diploma or working towards a Bachelors, but should I message them anyway to see if they offer a special program?

Hello, I am currently working on my CIH application. How thorough or detailed should the answers be for the job description questions? I feel like I am spending too much time on each question.

Just finished my 1L year and recently came to the realization that I could have some C&F issues. Very stressed and hoping to resolve them now before I get deeper through school.

1. Sex work Since 2020, I have received a substantial part of my very little income (I am and have been a student) from sex work sites. Nothing crazy and not OF, but around $7-10k each year. I did not list this on my law school application, as it has been a secret from almost everyone in my life. I recently realized that this is on my tax returns, under a general company name, but easily discoverable through a quick google search. I haven’t found much about this online, but since it’s on my tax returns i’m assuming I’ll need to disclose this? I was thinking about listing it as self-employment because it was a 1099 job, and putting that it’s “entertainment.”

Also, just to preface, there is no information connecting my real name or face to this online. I no longer do this work and I have hired copyright people to scrub anything out there (but was not connected to my name ever)

1. Taxes A consequence of this 1099 work is that taxes were not taken out. I owed $600 to the state and $1500 to the federal government. I currently owe $300 to the state on a payment plan and got an extension for the federal government until October. Will this be an issue with character and fitness? I am adamant about paying this off and and hoping as long as I abide by the extension and payment plan, nothing will come up on C&F.
   
2. Credit score Since being in law school and making barely enough money to get by, my credit card debit has been steady at $3000. My credit score has constantly gone down and is now around 680. Will this cause any issues? I am doing everything I can to pay this off, including working 3 jobs this summer, but just feel like I am drowning.
   

Overall, I am not even sure who to talk to about these issues. I am afraid to go to my school because I am embarrassed about the sex work and do not want people to be aware of this. I am considering hiring a C&F attorney, but obviously I have financial concerns about that as well.

Hi- need serious advice. I know this is a novel, I’m so sorry but I would appreciate anyone who reads it. I’m a 20 yr old F and I live with my brother, 19 M, and my two parents. My parents are abusive. There is no way to get around it. Physically when I was young and mentally now. I can’t describe what they put me through now- it’s awful. I promised myself all throughout high school I would leave the moment I turned 18 but something kind of switched and they became more tolerable, almost nicer, so like a fucking idiot I stayed. I started my bachelors, started working and tried to convince myself it was alright. The other reason I stayed was for my brother. I’ve taken care of him my whole life. I didn’t have any other choice, and I didn’t think I wanted one. It was my duty to take care of him and I did my job as best as I could only being 11 months older. I have gotten in the middle of fights, taken beatings, punishments, paid for him, drove him, etc. Time and money I didn’t have to spare spent on him with no repayment, and I’m talking about he wanted a new $60 game so I asked him to help me while I cleaned my room (vacuuming, taking down dirty clothes, wiping down my fan). This has been going on for years. I was the one to complete his college essay, to call his advisors to get his transcripts, to do his homework, otherwise my ass was on the line with my parents. I have done everything I could for him. Plus, he didn’t even get into college because I told him he had to complete his 200 word prompt for his college application, leading him not to get accepted because he didn’t fucking do it. He’s in his first year while I’m almost in my fourth. I have had jobs for the last 3 years in my field while he has done nothing. I begged my parents for a car and drivers license for 2 1/2 years while he, at 19, only got his 4 months ago. He does the bare minimum. Less than that, actually. The night before fall semester started he got into a fight with my father, physically, left the house, and made me go looking for him and try to convince him to go back home until 5am. To say my semester was fucked after that is an understatement. It’s constant but I stay because I’m his sister. It’s my job. It’s also a cultural thing I guess. I know I’m venting but I’m getting to the point I promise. A month ago I asked him to help me clean my room so that I could study since he has a habit of fucking his room up, coming and staying in my room, taking up my bed, and asking me to buy him food. I had just returned from the library, brought him Taco Bell, and wanted to clean a bit before continuing to study for my final the next day. To be clear, if I didn’t pass this class I wouldn’t be on track to graduate or get into my optometry program. He said he didn’t want to help and bitched and moaned but when I pointed out that I had gone out of my way to get Taco Bell for him he agreed to aid. I asked him to just bring up some cleaning stuff and take down my clothes so I could have them clean for work and he left. After an hour or so of waiting for him (yes I was procrastinating and purposely didn’t ask why he was taking so long) I heard him come upstairs with a plate full of sandwiches and go into his room. I was pissed. I started to text him, angrily and cursing I’ll admit, about him not doing shit and being so annoying. I called him a bum for never following on his promises or doing absolutely fucking anything. He started texting in all caps not to call him that otherwise he swore to god I would regret it, and I, being the person that I am (a fucking idiot) called him it again. He rushed out of his room, kicked open my door and threw his phone at me as hard as he could and left me with a bruise. He started standing over me, threatening me, saying shit like he was going to throw me done the stairs, snap my neck, etc. I’ve seen him get that way before- he smashes shit to pieces, breaks anything in his sight, and generally destroys things. For some context he’s a big guy, almost 300lb and used to be able to deadlift 500+lb. I got scared, saw a knife on my counter from dishes I had yet to clean, and pulled it on him. He slowly backed off and went to his room, before I, again, a fucking idiot, called him a bum again. A stupid decision, I know, I would definitely be the bitch that got knifed in a movie and you’d cheer for her death. This time I closed the door before he could come in, he tried to break down the door while I was on the other side, and in response he smashed something made of glass on the other side and punched a hole in my door. I contacted my dad who was far away and he sent my mother home. My mother and I haven’t spoken to each other in a few months since she called me a burden for asking her to help me get my work clothes ready for the week. She came in, spoke to my brother I guess, then came in and spoke to me. She said it was unbelievable and she didn’t know what to say and when I explained what happened and then told me to study for my test. She also went back to talk to him and came back to talk with me, asking me if I pulled a knife on him, which I admitted to, only because I was seriously afraid of him pushing me down the stairs or knocking me out. After that I locked the door and when texting my parents about the situation they only told me not to worry about it, just study. I couldn’t, and I swear to god I tried, all night. I was scared and I think in shock. I got to the lecture hall early and tried to study there but that didn’t help either. I had done alright in the class, done very well in the lab, but knew I bombed the final. I went home and didn’t speak to anyone at home for days. After about 3 days I went downstairs and saw my dad who tried to act like it wasn’t a big deal. I explained how insane and irrational the entire situation was and how I wanted to move out. I couldn’t handle dealing with all of their shit, and if I was the problem like they said I was then I would be fixing that too. I have a very important board exam this summer that I also have to take to get into optometry school and I proposed that I would live on campus, only for the summer. He refused, angrily saying that it wasn’t me place to move out, that he would never support me, and that if that’s what I wanted to do I could get the fuck out right now. A few things- I pay partially for my school. I don’t make much but I put a lot of what I do have toward school and the rest towards little things for me and my brother. Secondly, almost every single thing within my bedroom I have paid for. Excluding the mattress, furniture, and my phone, I have paid for everything I need or want through hard work. Thirdly, both my parents are currently unemployed but wealthy. Wealthy enough that they can go on vacations, pay for four cars, go out with their friends, and pay for their son’s tuition with no hassle. It’s only mine that poses a problem, which is the reason they let me work. They attempt to dictate how I should spend my money constantly. The argument went on for an hour, him accusing me of failing because I chose to, him proposing that he get a lock for my door, telling me I could move into the basement, etc. When my father refused to budge I went upstairs, used a loc that I had bought for when your staying at a hotel to barricade the door and have not spoken to him since. It has been a month now and I have not spoke to anyone in person, though my mother has been trying to guilt me into making me give up my refrigerator in my room by telling me my grandfather is in hospice, there will be a funeral soon, and me having that fridge is making me too fat to be presentable, as well as trying to be nice and hugging me when I have to leave for work in the morning. Now, with all of that context, here’s what’s going on. Since the entire incident happened I have been trying to figure out a way to leave. I have looked into campus housing but it’s an additional $7000 per semester that I don’t think I can afford even if I take out student loans and do FAFSA. I’m scared of the position. It’ll put me in when it comes to going to school. I do have another choice though. I recently toured an apartment complex that is beautiful it’s my dream place and the rent is less than $1500 a month. The only problem is that I only currently make being part time 12 to 1300 a month I just got a raise to $18 an hour but even then that’s not gonna be enough to cover it if I’m going to school at the same time, I’ve looked into some options and FAFSA and loans wouldn’t be able to cover any of my housing outside of living on campus. The only problem with living on campus is I can’t make the morning drive less than an hour and a half to work and I’m afraid with how it all affect my schedule and will to study. I was honestly giving up the idea of moving out at all because it seems so impractical and there was no way that I could actually leave and take my stuff with me without a fight. However, I recently learned that my parents tomorrow are leaving on a five day vacation to Vegas with Little to no thought of how that affects me and the position that I’m in with my brother, if I can figure out a way to somehow be able to afford the rent for this place afford a car to get to work because we have really bad public transportation in my area then I think I would just drop out of school and go. I love optometry more than anything and that’s why I was willing to deal with all of this but maybe school just isn’t in the cards for me. I don’t want to give it up but I don’t think that I’ll make it out of here alive, in all honesty. I can’t keep up with everything it’s ruining my life and I’m only 20 years old. But it’s so scary that I don’t know if I can even take the steps to moving out. I just paid tuition for the spring summer semester and have only $500 to my name. I would need to take out a loan to be able to put down the down payment for the car and the apartment and what if I don’t get approved? What if my work doesn’t give me full-time? what am I gonna do then? I don’t have anybody in my life that could help me. I also have a big family that would all be on their side and agree with them and what if I leave and they come back and cause a scene that causes me to lose my job? They would 100% do that. I know for some people it’s a no brainer but put yourself in my shoes. I have no money, family, friends, or support. At least here I have car and my room and sometimes they’re tolerable. I would only have to do it for 1-2(?) more years. On the other hand, this place is destroying me. I hate who I am becoming because of it. Would it be worth giving up my future for getting my dreams or moving out? If you read all of this you’re amazing, thank you so much. I can only stare at a pros and cons list for so long 🙃
