Mom says we'll figure that out that after we return. We don't want to risk me not being able to go on vacation.

You should become a Pokemon youtuber Duncan. The world needs your Pokemons knowledges.

Are you going to build a sandcastle?

You should at least make a sand Pokeball.

Make a sand Sandshrew and upload it to your pokemon youtube channel you are making.

As someone who doesn't know your situation, is there anything a stranger can do to help you?

Have you had a job before? If yes, what do you feel/think is the reason it didn't work out?
What personal skills do you possess? What do you feel you are good at (generally, not compared to others)
If the risk is not going on vacation because you are offered a job you want, would you sacrifice the vacation?
What country do you live in?

I've had a couple over the summer jobs but nothing permanent. Not good at anything that I could see being usable in a good job. Would I risk the trip? Lol no I've been thinking about it a lot and am looking forward to it a great bit.

I live in the United States.

Why would you think you don't have any skills being suitable at a good job? (What is good btw?)

If you are only looking at "good" (whatever that means) jobs, would you consider taking a "lesser than good" to gain experience to get a "good" job? :)

I don't live in the US, so I'm in no position to help, sorry, but I would look at your honesty as a good quality :) Though if someone is looking to help you out, I guess that you saying that you prioritizing your vacation when you are looking for a job might make you seem a little unserious.

If an interviewer asks you if you are flexible. Try to be as positive as you are able to be, without being dishonest :)

And it was a low probability that I could have any influence, but... shots in the dark sometimes hit, try to stay positive, flexible and available and you will get something good! ^_^ Best of luck!

I just saw your posts and the responses to you, and felt that you're a good person. I think that a lot of jobs are craving good persons who don't know how to market themselves, they just don't know how to look for them...

My suggestion would be to think about what makes you feel good, maybe abstractly, and look for jobs that have low level entry points into something in that sphere. Don't try to get "good" right away, but maybe "worthy"? - then if it suits you, I imagine you will grow in a very positive direction and others will recognize it :)

I think many stay in a rut (not english speaking, so maybe i spell this wrong "stuck in a ___") because they are only looking for the end of the ladder, missing the start... I really hope you have a good vacation, but please think about what a "good job" is. If the good person vibe from you is real - don't think that taking a lower entry level job is bad, just go to the competitor if you get some experience and they don't pay your value :)

And please don't get me wrong, I know this shit is hard. My journey is probably very very different from yours, but the last 3 years I have been in a very transformative period of my life where I have jumped from a very high paying job into studies (no paying) to get into a field that is very much average paying, but for motivations that I feel is worth it.

Feel free to contact me on gamefaqs private messages if there is something I might be able to help with! (Not in US, so I don't have contacts where you live, sorry)

What is Duncan? :) Dictionaries didn't give an answer that made this understandable to me.

People think I'm making everything up even though my stories have been consistent for years. This is my life, deal with it.

You should start a YouTube channel.
Make it Poke themed

You can make up everything and have it be consistent...

Okay, I'm not often enough on gamefaqs to know who is who. I will not engage myself more in this topic, but if you feel you need someone to talk to to find a profession suitable to you, please feel free to send a message :) My education is more towards younger people, but it is probably a little transferrable and I know this board can be a little toxic when being serious.

For years might indicate that someone more experienced might give better advice, but maybe something simple from another country just helps, or something?

He'd rather not risk his trip than get a job
