So I've been working as a thoroughbred racehorse groom for the past 5 years, and after 5 years of witnessing illegal business practices, being subjected to racism, being subjected to homophobia, and being fired for being a woman. I have decided to leave the race track in favor of more traditional work where the illegal to discriminate against me for everything I just named. Here's the catch on the racetrack your home comes with the job it's part of the deal so now that I don't work there anymore I'm technically homeless and unemployed and leeching right now. I know joblessness and not going to be tolerated for very long and even though I'm breaking my neck to get a job no one will hire me. My girlfriend works at a place where they have lost 3 people in one week and have had numerous no call no shows, eight times in the past 30 days. They previously had a an entire married couple working in the same place but they won't hire me specifically because I happen to be the girlfriend of someone who already works there? I have performed all of the people I was competing against for a job and still did not get the job. It seems like the world was giving me a sign to get out of the horse racing business because the ill-treatment. I decide to make a life change and it turns out that trying to leave my God awful job was the worst decision. And I see so many people complaining about how they're awful dead-end job is you know and my last job my boss called me the n-word right to my face. I should have kept that job because now that I don't have it I'm pretty miserable without it, I'm not saying being emotionally destroyed every day for a living is the route to go in but it's better than being unemployed

It\'s 2:35pm, sitting on the wooden makeshift bench of a local transport van,on my way home from another unsuccessful job interview, with tears trickling down my face, not because i haven\'t eaten for about twelve hours, or because i don\'t even know where the next meal is coming from, but the harsh words of the head of the interview panel kept ringing in my ears; despite my pleads for any salary structure that is fair, he insisted i can\'t be employed because i am over-qualified for the position.
Having lost my previous job as a Sales & Marketing manager with a chinese-owned FMCG company; the reason for which was- short-staffing due to economic downturn, i have search for available jobs, attended hundreds of interviews; even turning up at private schools that pay less than 30 dollars a month. I had nothing to show for it.
The question i asked myself is;
1.Why was i born in this country?
2.Why is life unfair to certain set of people?
3.Does it mean i am not hard working enough?
4.Does it mean i am not spiritual enough?
5.Does it mean i am lazy?
Life is a crazy place mehn..... I can do anything to get foodin my stomach now....anything to get by mehn.

I am tired of being poor and in debt. It is like I am covered in oil, going down a tube with no way out... just down. I have no help and no mercy. I basically cry myself to sleep every night. Nothing makes me feel more defeated.

Worked hard and invested lots of time and family resources to earn a degree, but the Great Recession happened and the area we find ourselves in has never recovered. Statistically, it’s an area in the USA with the lowest education level, the highest unemployment, the lowest per capita income, the highest percentage of low paying jobs in manufacturing in the country, and to top it all off…near one of the worst areas in the country for allergens (and I am allergic to just about everything). The city rankings are easily searchable, and no, it is not Detroit or Flint or Cleveland. We have mounting medical bills where our daughter was assaulted by one of the workers in the last daycare she was in and she was hospitalized first for broken bones and then for dehydration because she was hurting so badly she wouldn’t eat or drink - $42000. Student loans are piled up from my wife’s useless B.Ed. We had to put the first classes on the credit card because she used up her Federal loan amounts with the B.Ed…$4000. More bills are coming up associated with maternal care for my wife while she’s pregnant. Every single pair of shoes I have, I got used for less than $10/pr. off eBay. Had to put a roof on the house this year right before our little one had her daycare incident…$5000. I drive a 35-year-old truck, my wife drives a 17-year-old car, which are constantly breaking and I spend all my time working on them. I do not think this will abate until my parents pass away and we move to a better area after we liquidate their estate. It is a terrible feeling, wondering when people you love are going to pass away so your immediate family’s situation will finally have a chance to get better…
