Am I a loser if I don't have a job right now?

Definition of a human isn’t working.

Definition of life isn’t work.

You’re a human and you’re here living and enjoying in the moment. You’ll either find a cause to support receiving wages for that, OR you’ll find you can receive wages for you just enjoying yourself with the talents you have within and may choose to develop.
OR

you’ll become a workaholic at something and anything that pays money or great money so you can do more I guess?

Is anyone a loser for not working or a failure if they mess up at times?

NO

We’re human. We mess up because we’re imperfect and learn by trial and some error. We keep living striving and loving life.

Id say really try to get some type of income if you’re missing out on daily needs like food or such but that’s about it.

Be with those around you and embrace the world around you : ) a little change 💰 doesn’t hurt either.

Best to you sis! I have great faith in you. ✌️😊🫂

Not necessarily. I was unemployed for a few months after college and didn't start actively searching for a job until June. I briefly started looking in May and applied for a few jobs but didn't start actively applying until June. Now I'm about to start my full time job on Tuesday. I'm surprised I found something so soon. I wanted to take a break after graduating from college but knew I eventually had to start job searching and I'm glad I just got an offer. You can take breaks but make sure you're putting some effort into job searching. It can take a while to find a job. Some people take longer than others depending on a variety of factors.

It depends why you don’t have a job. If you didn’t do something heinous that resulted in being fired and if you’re not lazy, then no, it does not make you a loser. A lot of places claim to be desperate for workers but won’t give anyone who doesn’t perfectly match the detailed and overly specific “requirements” a chance. Also, companies lay people off at the drop of a hat. I got laid off multiple times during the last decade after getting excellent performance ratings my whole career. One time it was so executives could meet an overhead reduction threshold and lock into a higher annual bonus. If you’ve been unemployed for over six months, you don’t count as unemployed as far as the USG goes, so their unemployment numbers are way lower than reality. So, it probably isn’t because you are a loser. It’s probably because we have corrupt, incompetent elites. Clear them all out!

No you're not a loser you might be taking a little vacation you might be taking advantage of somebody or you might be manipulating somebody to have this free. Maybe you're finding yourself but here's the thing no matter what the end outcome is it's your choice because you get to choose who you want to be by the things that you say and do who do you want to be what do you want in life go get it or sit at your choice

Nah better to be honest with yourself.

I'm taking a break from my unpaid work to invest in my hobbies, gain new knowledge and do some soul searching.

I want to solidify my personality. I took my past 2 months for granted by rushing and trying to fit with stereotypes of society and I was suddenly shoved into UNPAID work as soon as I graduated.

A guy wasted my time too for 1.5 months.

So I'll cut off mindless scrolling, useless interactions and will spend more alone time.

[Rose_84]

Make sure you avoid unhelpful criticism and negativity (even if it's from family). Their words are as good as a trash because you'll definitely get a job but this break you will never get back.

[Aerissa_Jade]

That is only up to you to decide, I would never judge you or anyone else for that but with unemployment as low as it is, you should be able to find a job easy enough. Not the right job, take any job and keep looking for better one in the meantime.

If you can't find a job right now, you'll never find one when unemployment goes up.

No, Covid has really turned the country upside down and Biden had turned it inside out. Lots of people are unemployed and lots of people have been unemployed so long that their benefits have run out and they are no longer counted. I was out of work for two years and just found a good job a month ago.

[Snsl153]

No, I don't have a job either. On the other hand I've got tonnes of money, so it doesn't matter :D

[Staximus]

Want to buy me a car haha

[Snsl153]

@Staximus What kind? :)

[Staximus]

A 2012 Honda Civic would be great, thanks

[Snsl153]

@Staximus 2012 model? A ten year old car?

[Staximus]

Yeah haha... I don't need some fancy car, I just need to make it to work 5 days a week to keep a roof over my head

[Lotusinmud]

Not at all a loser is someone that gives up you’ll find another job it happens Iv lost a job recently as well and ended up finding another one I got faith in you 👍🏼

[Asker]

I've lost hope a long time ago

[Lotusinmud]

I understand the feeling I got really depressed after I lost mine you’ll find something though just be persistent and apply everywhere

[Asker]

I didn't lose my job.

[Asker]

Can I talk to you? I dmd you

[Lotusinmud]

Ya of course

[Asker]

Follow me back. Thanks

[LindsayR07]

This is a market where you can't throw a rock without hitting a "help wanted" sign... You e got no excuse

[exitseven]

yes, if you don't mind working at McDonalds. Finding a good paying job is a different story.

[LindsayR07]

@exitseven 1) McDonalds is better than no job
2) even good paying employers can't find help. My job hires entry level people at 2x the local minimum wage and we hire contractors at over 3x local minimum wage and we are having hell hiring.

[exitseven]

I was unemployed for 2 years and finally got a job as a Network administrator. i had lots of interviews but had a hard time getting hired. I think my age had a lot to do with it.

[LindsayR07]

@exitseven interesting

[TacosRAwesome]

Depends. Are you actually trying to get a job? Are you brushing up on your employability skills? Are you working on hobbies etc?

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

No, you are not a loser, for not having a job.

[Still-alive]

not if you keep searching. just never give up looking

[Wise4myage]

Do you have a legit reason not to be working?

[Mangospacho]

Not if you’re searching for a job or you’re independently wealthy.

[MiseriaCantareAFI]

Yeah. The economy is getting better, and lots of people are looking for workers

[roy_ricky09]

Nope.
Important question is why don't you?
Whats stopping you
What are you doing about it

[landingout2]

you don't want the truth trust me lol

and it has nothing to do with a job

[DizzyDesii]

The job is a loser for not having you

[Asker]

You're very kind for saying that :)

[DizzyDesii]

Thanks. Prob the kindest thing i said all night

[HollyK21]

If you’re actively trying to find a job then no.

[sheikalana]

Keep trying you'll eventually find a job.

[WhitneySnow]

No. A lot of people are in between jobs.

[Anonymous]

Only if you lost your job.

[Asker]
