Please help. I keep getting fired from EVERY job I have. I have no idea what to do in order to retain gainful employment. I am not able to own my own profitable business. I am not any different from anyone else. I do not possess: EXCESSIVE TARDIES OR ABSENCES ATTITUDE EXCESSIVE STUPIDITY BRAGGING A CRIMINAL RECORD Yet, I still get fired from absolutely EVERYTHING. I am on foodstamps, unemployment, etc. I can manage to make around $10-$20 a week from home, but I can live on this. I finally got a part-time job, but I can already tell that I am soon to be fired. I have not done any crimes that 1/2 of America has not done before. I am 27 years old. I live in Georgia where you can be fired for ANY reason. A lot of people who are JUST like me get to keep their jobs in my previous positions. They are no better or no worse. I am beginning to feel completely inadequate. This all started when I was 24. I am 27 now with not much to look forward to when I turn 30. Please help. What do I do? I am tired and exhausted of crying and trying to kiss up to people who fire me anyway... I JUST DON'T GET IT. PLEASE ANY GOOD ADVICE WOULD BE APPRECIATED. I HATE MYSELF MORE AND MORE.

I'm sorry to hear that esantra. Sometimes we need to understand that not all we want will be with us all the time. I know that God has plan for you. Cheer up my friend. As the sun still exists we still hope to hold on. That's life, it is only one of your struggles in life. Just don't loose hope. Always pray also.

Sounds to me like you should start by changing your additude about yourself and the way you think. You are thinking so negative, that negative is all you are going to get. When you start a job, your are already expecting to get fired. That is a wrong attitude. Just do your best, and try to enjoy your work for how ever long it last. As for hating yourself. If you hate yourself why should another like you? By putting yourself down, your creating a picture of yourself in a negative way. People will treat you that way, because you think that way. Try to have more respect for yourself, love yourself. When you start to learn this, people will be different towards you. They to will have more respect for you and treat you better. Try it, it helps, I know. Take care and good luck.
