27 y/o w/ humanities BA and on verge of economics MA with work experience in admin & light weight database reporting. I cannot get a gosh darn job. I average about 2 phone screens & one face-to-face per month for the last year. Not even my temp agency can get me a job, other than short term minimum wage jobs stuffing envelopes. Not to mention that job boards are plagued with head hunters & not the companies themselves. The real problem is that I have an offer but they keep doing background and drug screens on me & keep pushing my start date back. Its my pee & I did the work!! I don't get it, but we are on the verge of round 3. My unemployment is gone & I'm basically gonna starve to death or I'll join the military and die overseas. My gf on the other hand is pushing forward in her career. She doesn't even respect me anymore. Its so funny how it turned from me supporting her/us, to her supporting me/us, to her wanting independence. Its only been a year & we have been together for nearly 6 years. I just feel so helpless and tiny. I was packing my things up(preparing 4 the worst) and I noted the price tag on shoe boxes n stuff. What I wouldn't give to have that money back. I actually went to the bank and they acknowledge I've had the account for 18 years, funny cause I have about 18 dollars. Its almost embarrassing to have nice things knowing that my bank account is empty. Thanks for reading. I ♥♥ the answers community!

Hey, I know the feeling but I don't have degree. I am enlisting in the Air Force. Look, you should consider it because the amount of people who are killed is small. You will only be killed if you go for a position in which you will see combat. (infantry or security forces) There are plenty of jobs that involve sitting behind a desk in the military. And guess what, if you tell your girl this maybe she will respect you. Then you can get married and if you do this the military will pay for you two to live either on base or off base. Also, you have a bachelor's degree so you wouldn't have to enlist, you could go in to train as an officer! Check out http://usmilitary.about.com/cs/joiningup/a/recruiter.htm and make sure you go with an open mind. You will not regret it if you can stand to lose a bit of freedom for the duration of basic training and part of job training school.
