Twisted, I did not say that I am trapped in my current job, it just happens to be the job I took. My living situation changed at the end of summer and I had to cut my hours in half, which is why I am not making any money at that position.
Now that you say it, I think you might be right about simply quitting that job and working harder at finding a real job. I'll take your advice and start looking for other work a bit sooner in the semester than I had planned.
You are absolutely right about not relying on my boyfriend to support me. I have actually been talking about that with him. Simply transferring my dependence from one person to another is not a solution. Really, it was never my intent. We've wanted an apartment together for a while, but considering the turn that things have taken we are now looking at it with greater intent.
I actually did have a goal in mind when I started college, however, my mother told me she would no longer help cover any of the costs of college if I did not alter my major and stay with the minor that she thought was best. At the time, I agreed. It has been a regret ever since.
I've been working on a double major. When I finish I will have a BA in psychology and public relations. Unfortunately, I've not had the chance to build a portfolio.
It is very good to know that there are companies who would hire me for fair paying jobs, regardless of my major.
Thank you for being blunt and not trying to spare feelings.
