Jey, I have no money to buy transport in the first place, and therein lies the problem

You're not the only one in a tight spot... I'm stuck in the same vicious circle, except I don't even get as far as the interview even on a good day. My applications go out, by snail and e-mail, and that's the end of it for most of them.
It's a bit of a blow to the self-esteem when no one replies, and you really, really need a job. Especially when I keep getting accused by dad of not looking (just because he never sees me doing it, apparently means I'm never doing it...) or threatened with being kicked out.
Maybe I'm having a logic failure here. How is kicking me out meant to help get me a job, if no one is going to get back to me even to tell me I missed out?

It was until very recently I had the same problem myself. Of the hundreds of vacancies I have applied to in the past year, only 5 have got back in touch with me, at all. Shit, even if they don't want you, they could still say 'thanks, but no thanks'. It's common courtesy, surely?

Good luck to you too for finding a job

Thanks, sounds like we both need it, and yeah, you'd think it would be, but now people seem more worried about the time and money it costs even to slap out a fill-in-the-blanks generic letter back now. How hard can it be to just write a few words, sign it and send it? Apparently too much...
Still, can't give up hope, give up that, and there isn't much left. I don't like to think about what I might do then.

Is it possible to take the applications in personally? Often you can make a better impression if they can see you in person. Just make sure you're dressed nice, an old high school friend of my husband turns his applications in wearing ratty old t-shirts. He can't figure out why he never gets a call back. Not that this applies to you, I'm just putting it out there.

=(=(=(

I feel like SUCH an asshat right now =(

I was trying to trim my baby's (puppy) nails, and he jerked away because he saw my sister come in the door, and I cut the crap out of his quick =((((( I stopped the bleeding after a few minutes with corn starch, but he cried and cried and cried and buried his head in my arms and just looked at me with the eyes of a torture victim =(

No, not his paw, but the vein that runs inside each nail (Dear Mother Nature . . . wtf?). When clipped, it causes quite a bit of pain and profuse bleeding. I, being one of extreme emotions, was flipping a shit because I couldn't find my damn corn starch fast enough and my poor pup was gushing blood and crying in my arms . . . ugggh

Crisis averted anyhoo.
