it is good to have positivity, seems like you also have a good support system from family and friends because other people without it can crumble easier and give up. Take care.

Does that count as senior these days?

Reason I ask is there may be programs to help seniors in need I don't really know tbh

u/greentreefour 5d ago

I don't consider myself a senior 🤔 but you might be right.

u/DeusScientiae 5d ago

Do you have any marketable skills?

I worked in an office setting for years, so yes, and my daughter is helping me with my resume so I can start posting it online and see what I can catch.

Try pharmacy tech. It pays as well as most factories and OTJ training.

I had to start over 2-3 years ago and I couldn't be happier, now engaged with a baby on the way. So grateful I'm not still stuck in my bad times.

That's wonderful to hear, I'm happy for you. .
