Since first year (am now 3rd) I have struggled to get a single job whilst studying (as well as over summer) and it's super frustrating.
I am 20 and have never had a job but it's not like i'm not trying, yet i feel pathetic and stupid and that i am behind in life.
In high school, quite a few people had jobs, so i feel ashamed that even now i have been very unlucky. I try applying for jobs offered by my Uni to no avail- and it's annoying cause the uni acts like student employment is so easy but it's clearly not lol.
The thing that is bugging me is that whenever i think about or hear other friends/acquaintances say they have a job, instead of feeling happy, I am super envious and jealous and it makes me feel like such a cow to say the least XI
Majority of people that have employment though are just lucky they have networks and family connections, and i find this so unfair.
What advice could you give me? FYI i have started my own tutoring so am currently self-employed, however i really want a real job, as in be employed by someone else
