Whats a simple job?

Apparently stuff like fast food is not an option since I tried every single place in town several times. I dont really have a lot of friends. I have certificates to be a guard and just not getting interviews. I not sure whats wrong. Whats a job that will take anyone that is not something I need a ton of training to do?

    Go to a dollar store I worked at one after highschool with no experience and my supervisor had just got out of prison, they'll take anybody that's willing to show up on time and sweep the floor now and then.

    Go to a temp agency...I've been to a couple and they'll usually find work for you. It's a good way to get going in something. You start out as a "temporary" worker, but if a company likes what they see they'll hire you on as an employee.

    Search for one in your area, call them up, and ask what's the best time to fill out an application and go do it. If they don't get back to you, then it's important you call them back and let them know you're serious about finding work.

      All hail our superior instincts! Planning meals for more than one person every month on a tight budget is harder than you think.

    A retail job is one that doesn't require much training. Give that a try. :)

    I was going to say security, but it looks like you tried that. If you can't get a job in fast food or security, I don't know what to tell you. Maybe bagging groceries?

        Just apply at an auto parts store. Most of them deliver. You have to be a good driver and stuff though (clean driving record and everything). Minimum age of 21 years old for the company that I applied to.

    In my area a certified guard can easily get a private investigator license. PI firms will readily hire free lance investigators and give you more cases if you're good. Some will even give you work as a support person as they pay for any required PI training.

      Aged care doesn't need training in the US?

        I have no idea about the US, but where I live the government was providing funding for people to complete the 3 month course in aged care for free due to the shortage of staff. Not an easy job though.

              Yeah, me too ...... a lot of those 3 month micky mouse courses are a bit of a con trick by the job network people and once you've done one the govt won't fund any more courses for you, even if you never get a job in that field. The network will still get its fee from the government regardless.

              I did a 3 month Disability Care Cert III course some years ago, fully funded by the government, but found out about half way through that it was very unlikely I'd be able to get employment, because I'd had only a small amount of prior experience years before. A day training centre connected to the job network mob was the only place I could've got work as far as I could find out, but then it all became academic because I had a heart attack just before I'd finished my placement hours, so that was the end of that.

              If I had tried to get employment in that field elsewhere, I would've been competing against people who'd done 12 month full time courses to get the identical Certificate: my 3 months course was only 1 day a week, so who would you choose if you were an employer?

    Still looking for work? It's been something like 15 months since I noticed you first posting on here that you were having trouble.
    How is it you haven't starved to death?
    You've asked this and other similar questions on here repeatedly, and it hasn't apparently helped you one tiny bit, and yet, here you are doing it again.
    Perhaps you might want to look up the dictionary definition of insanity, and consider if that might be at least part of your problem.
