I was in a similar situation before I got my job. I didn't do very good at applying for jobs.
Do you want to stay in MA? Have you looked elsewhere? Would you move across the country?
Have you watched the TV show Undercover Boss to see what types of low level jobs are out there? There are a lot of jobs I didn't even know exist. Have you talked to someone at a job center? Even those jobs are tough to get when 10% of the workers are out of work and the people doing those jobs now know it.
Are you a regular volunteer anywhere?
Have you looked into a government job? The Census might be hiring some people near you.
I kind of wish I would have done the English as a second language teaching overseas when I was that age, I think it would have been fun.
Have you had previous jobs, have you contacted them to see if they have any openings or know of any at other places?
What are you good at? What do you like doing?
Read books, watch movies, sleep, enjoy the time off.
