I was gonna say that too. Sounds like a good choice to me.

I certainly feel better about myself now, thanks!
Ever consider a serving job? I've never waited tables before but tons of my friends have. Aim for a place like an Outback steakhouse or somewhere where the meals are a little more expensive than say a Chili's or something along those lines. Look for a busy restaurant too if possible. Working 5 days a week should easily get you more than what you're currently making and will also help to improve on your social skills.
It's a gap fill type of a job but it can't hurt moneywise or socially.
And realize that you need to take care of YOURSELF first. Budget your shit pronto.As soon as you stop worrying about what other people think of you, your life will get better.
I worked at Outback - its part of what sent me further downwards, and also part of what helped me get back on my feet.
You'll make tons of money - be smart with it, however. And stay away from the 'lifers'. yes, they're fun to hang out with, but if you get too attached and aren't carefull your next thread will be about how your 35 and been a server for the last 13 years and have no skill set, no retirement, and your brain is severely damages.
fyi i was making roughly 20$/hr working as a server... of course I worked in the NOVA area - even rednecks left at least 15%
yes, making a rash decision right now might hurt you in the long run... you need to make good decisions from here on out.Nothing happens over night...
thats what i wound up doing... i'm still in school at a university, i work 40+ hours aweek and take classes at night - on the side I tend to my relationship and take care of my dog + i'll be working on fixing this house up soon. It fucking sucks, I hate it, and I wouldn't wish it on anyone else. But its what I have to do....I would say a good place to start is school, you have 50 hours of CC so that is a start, find a way to apply that somehow and get some sort of cert out of it. From there its an easier step to University or to a trade etc, Just make everything one a step, I know it sounds cliche but its short term goals that lead to long term success
Ok, so I don't know what to do. My life is just stuck in the shitter. Here's one of the major bad decisions I made. I bought a Harley Davidson. When I bought it, I had a decent job making 9.25 an hour, and some friends and family of mine all had bikes, so I thought we were all going to be going on cool rides and adventures and whatnot.
