I'm a dad, I'm 23, and I am beginning to lose hope with every passing day. I haven't seen my daughter in a year and a half because my ex cheated on me with a woman. I had the promise of a crazy 90k salary if I just got my TWIC card through a family friend's offer; but due to issues with my mom, who he was dating, he has since decided to ghost me on the matter and I haven't gotten a single call or text back regarding the matter.
I feel like I'm completely fucked and I have nothing going for me except a driver's license. I'm applying for the TWIC on the 25th and desperately need a job, for the love of fucking God I have fallen to my knees and begged the skies for an opportunity to no avail. I've applied to all 32 potential employers in my area and have received JACK SHIT in return.
Jobs that a completely crippled person could still manage to do.
I don't have the money or resources or facilities to garner new skills. I'm dirt poor, living with my dying grandma and I'm trying everything I can to get money so I can help pay her utilities and leave once I have enough money to get the fuck out of this shithole.
I HATE this state. It's horrible. I knew since I was a child that if I ever got stuck here, I'd kill myself.
I could've had a fucking career and a future if I was born literally anywhere else to parents that actually stuck around and loved me more than they loved drugs.
I could've meant something to the world. Or at least my little part of it.
Over my two decades of life, I have come to the conclusion that Louisiana is for 4 types of people:
* Drug addicted losers who never leave their hometown,
* nepo babies with families here (HOW AND WHY???),
* people with friends or family that got them a job through reference and not actual hard work,
* And finally, geriatrics on the verge of death that want a hot, swampy, miserable shithole to spend their last days in. (BUT HEY HOUSING'S CHEAP! I WONDER WHY?)
I'm bitter and I'm angry and I have pretty much nothing to lose and that makes for a dangerous situation. I hate that. I hate being angry. But I have no reasons to be happy. "OH well youre alive!" OKAY? AND?
I need some help finding a goddamn job or for someone to just GIVE me one because I deserve a better quality of life than this shit, and if anyone gives a damn about their fellow human being they could take pity on me at the very least.
Fuck Louisiana. This place makes me want to kill myself. No wonder it's a crime-riddled, prospect-lacking, ugly, boring cesspit devoid of any future or hope; No wonder this place has one of the lowest education ratings in the entire country.
I absolutely fucking hate it here and if I get stuck here -- I am 100% committing suicide if I can't fucking escape this place within the next year. I refuse to be homeless. 365 days from now is all I have before she's forced to kick me out; because even though I ration water and electricity and eat a single meal a day if I'm feeling selfish enough -- I am still too much of a strain.
I'm so fucking done.
