5. I know....

I know how you feel minus the divorce and kids.... I was recently fired because I screwed up, because they overworked me and allowed my other coworkers to take complete advantage of me being there... I had moved away from my parents home, to a city an hour and half away. I can always move home, but the truth is there isn't a whole lot of jobs back home. So I decided to stay and took a job that pay minimum wage, and hoping to move up soon. Truth is there is no trick, just perseverance. I have a B.S in Psychology which is a BS degree due to you can't do jack with it, without getting graduate degrees... Keep your head up, don't be afraid to take the lower paying job it may work out to where you move up faster. In today's America you have to take what you can get or just let the world take you over. I hope the best for you, don't give up... Good Luck!!
