I keep getting all kinds of scams when I just want some kind of pay so I don't have to die in an abusive household. It's driving me crazy, like having hope dangled in front of me only to find out it's another scam. Thankfully I haven't fully fallen for one, but I'm tired of the disappointment.

I've been trying so hard to keep going, but I don't understand the point anymore. Capitalism is a fucking scam. I'm disabled and I can't even get Disability from the government, and even if I could, it wouldn't be enough for me to live off of.

I'm so tired. I'm so so tired. What the fuck is the point of living if I can't even do something so simple like getting a job?

If anyone is wondering what the scam was;
The scammer pretended to be from Doosan, wanted to text-interview me on Telegram, and offered 30$ an hour for Customer Service, 20$ an hour for training. The username was Doosan10 on Telegram. I filed a report with FTC but I'm sure it won't amount to much.

Looking for work is like screaming to the world: "Hey, I'm a vulnerable person and here's my profile!". I hate it!

I'm looking for a job too and, so far, the best place I found is liknedin. That place is like hell, but companies use it and don't have to read what people post.

I'm so sorry that happen to you.

Looking for work is really a challenge. I had no idea that there were also scams in job offers. It has never happened to me and I have never seen one. It's horrible in every way.

I hope you really find a job and please don't give up.

That sounds so awful and stressful what you are going through. I'm sorry that you have to endure this. This life is just so unfair. I hope you find relief from your suffering in whatever happens.

There is a job app, called Hirect that our business uses to hire. It is chat based. The company has to give their tax info to verify that the business is legit. It sounds like you are in America, and this might be something you could use. The app is free to use.
