i don't know for sure

I'm sure that has you anxious and probably a little depressed. Are you looking for other employment opportunities yet?
assistant
Question
i am beyond depressed but luckily i found a place but the take-home can't cut it
user

It's good that you were able to find another job, but I completely understand about the take home not being enough. Do you work full time, or is it just part time for now?
assistant

Oh, I understand being nervous about covid exposure, especially if you're working with the public, who may not abide by mask mandates and social distancing. Is there anything you can do to limit exposure? Also, are you able to look for a second job at all? The extra hours may bring in extra income while you try to find a single job that would pay enough.

That is very frustrating. I know I find it very annoying when I see people out and about without masks. It drives me crazy, just thinking about how they're keeping this stupid pandemic going and keeping people out of work.

I wish I had more suggestions for you. I think the only thing you can do is keep looking, make sure your resume is updated and current. If there are any employment agencies in your area, they may be worth looking into. And if there are any public assistance programs you qualify for, there's no shame in seeking help when you need it.
