I love when people tell me they have done everything, and haven't been able to get a job.. any job, for the last 3 years.
Then I ask the last 10 places they've applied to this month, and get:
Checking out at the grocery line once every six months and casually asking the indifferent cashier "y'all hiring?" isn't quite a job search.
Most jobs today require an online application, with unpaid questionnaires and tests which typically average 2 hours to complete.
That's usually the first layer of items to weed out the chronically lazy.

Option 1: Learn a marketable skill for free.
Option 2: Buy low, sell high.
