I've recently gone back onto the dole (government benefits) for the gazillionth time in my life, after getting off Austudy, because the university I attend (UNSW) has me suspended for failing three terms in a row.
I've been on gb (government benefits) since I was about sixteen years old and have never had a "proper" job (The only employment I've ever had was when I lived in Sydney as a student working on casual employment as an extra.
It's time I had an ordinary job ... any job ... a 9-5, Mon-Fri office job.
I'm a qualified Graphic Designer and Journalist, but companies don't won't people with qualifications, they want people with experience - experience that I can't get without a job.
I want a job that earns me enough money to get me off the dole FOREVER.
I'd like to save up some money, buy a nice house in a nice location and start renting out and keep doing that until I've got a nice passive income going.
I'd like to be a filmmaker, but I'm completely over education - I'd like to start working now.
Previously, I was never willing to move to get a job. Now, I'm willing to move to anywhere where I can receive employment.
