I was never taught how to do that stuff. My parents didn't teach me and the school didn't either. Daddy and I should start working on that though. It's beyond silly not to know how to. Yes there's programs, however limited right now for people with learning disabilities. When I was a student at adult ed, they gave me the option of listing myself as emotionally and learning disabled , I don't know specifically if my teacher specialied in those kinds of students, but he was a good teacher, patient with all my learning hang ups as long as I was putting in the work. I was finishing my highschool courses there, the courses they offered was practical stuff, like ESL as a second language, Motocycle classes to get your motorcycle liscence, they did stuff like teach you how to drive a forklift an get you certified to do jobs involving forlifts. They also had a computer lab. I could call Michaels and see if there's any classes in stuff I like to and could teach yes, you never know it doesn't hurt an all you have to loose is a phone call. I can also go back to volunteering, at least even a little bit, so if they want referances of people I have worked for or volunteered for, I won't be shit out of luck on that one lol. Maybe I might even find a job possibility at the SPCA or something. I certainly could try for jobs that are not through a company. I did have one person who said he'd pay me to do his laundry, washing it and folding it, and I was willing to do that, though he turned out to be a creep, so it never panned out. I could see if any one on our block needs help with basic things, and do those for them. . quote:
ORIGINAL: barelynangel TFTB, training and experience isn't going to fall into your lap., YOU have to be proactive in gaining same. If you keep saying you can't, you know you will be right. As i said, if you are seriously seeking training, contact a store you are interested in and see if they would be willing to allow you to train as an intern rather than a paid employee. Okay, i know this may not be a politically correct question but you are able to type on a computer, you seem to have basic education, what do you mean you are not able to count money or change? You seem intelligent, is there a reason you can't learn? Go back to school in something that interests you. If you have disabilities or learning disabilities, aren't there places that offer classes and such? As other people said, go to the unemployment office and see what they have to offer as to free classes and such. Nowadays especially, it seems there are a lot of career centers etc. You mentioned bagger, that from what i see is a lot of time spent on their feet and lifting bags. Play to your strengths and find out what you can do rather than what you think you can't. Think of it like this -- if you needed a job what COULD you do. If you were on your last meal and needed to find something to do, what could you do? You have a computer, do some research on the career sites etc. Only you can be proactive, no one is just going to hand you training, experience and a job. You are going to have to get out there and take what you want because there are too many people right now who are desperate to do ANYTHING to bring in money. Someone who is limiting yourself is not going to have a whole heck of a lot of success. Good luck, angel
