All of this petty and boring. Doesn’t sound like OP wants to do facials and sell stuff on Facebook.

Kids are 6 and 8. They're in school, so I don't understand what I'm even supposed to do. I just drive them and help with homework, but I did that before.


If you cannot figure out how to pass your time, it is no wonder no one wants to hire you . Also, your post makes no sense. You said you don't like cooking and cleaning, so you are doing that now, ostensibly more than you did before, right? That is what you are "supposed" to do - stuff around the house. If you don't like doing it, get a retail job for the time being. You sound pretty resourceful though. I would not hire you. I hire people who take initiative.


This isn't very kind. Losing a job is a major life change and sometimes people process that in different ways. Most people probably can't just figure out their passions and start working on them right away. It takes time to grieve and make next steps.

OP hang in there. I would feel the same way if I were in your shoes. Keep applying for jobs and take it day by day.
