I had to turn down a job and I was devastated.... But now I had two other jobs wanting to interview me.

One is local to my town but involves things I'm not sure I can do like lifting heavy objects and driving a truck, plus it's not about birds, etc...

The other one is Detroit area so would require relocation/commute but it involves teaching about birds, but I still don't have a car!

And my caseworker I know won't help me because she doesn't support me working at all...

Not sure what to do or if I should just quit applying to jobs.

Did your case worker help you get government benefits?


On the other hand, how much can a case worker "help"?


Previous social workers have done little more than flap their stupidass traps

They don't have the skills or power to "help"

Yours could be different


Get a car or take the bus

Carpool


The reason why I feel reluctant to move to get a job, is, could get canned the next day


But relocation for work has been done numerous times before


Not many jobs invove birds

"Beggars can't be choosers"


Monopolistic competition


Sometimes you have to do things you don't like to do at work
