I wouldn't say that, I don't know your situation, political climate, taxation status, favorite toothpaste, and type of car, so I surely wouldn't draw that conclusion.

Seriously, I hope you do find a job that turns out to be more than just a paycheck, but a blessing to your life.

Had the same problem for like 3 months (officially just 3 weeks due to bankruptcy) and started a new job last Monday. So just keep applying and wait and see. Someday you will get lucky. In finding a job I mean

mart, that's the problem.
I hate paperwork.
and because of that, I do poor applications and get turned down.

I hate paperwork to but hehe it's about getting a new job so getting some cash.
Sort of important I think, so I just sat down and did three letters, 1 got rejected no talks no nothing, 1 basically got hired but they paid way way way less then I was used to (like 500 euro's a month less) and not paying for overtime in cash or days of and no travel costs so told them no and the third time I just got hired.

Sure paperwork sucks but if it means getting a new job and earning some money I'm ok with it.
Life's a bitch and then......

no, I'm not union but I belong to one.
without it, would get about 50% less per month as would drop to government aid.
that would mean selling my new car.

so, surely I'm partly in union. I was kicked out of the full membership when I didn't graduate some years ago but I still am part of their paycheck division
