Can't tell if this a troll job or not. Since you didn't post your location, I assume it is.
But in case it isn't there are a few cafe's hiring in the Metairie area. I know Caffe Caffe is.

I don’t know if it’s worse that I’m easily able to spot these trolls immediately or others can’t spot them at all.

GLT used to do this more frequently - I'm not sure if he would pull these things from reddit, facebook, or what.

Was laid off last week after 20 years with a major telecom company.
Haven’t heard a peep after applying for 100+ jobs. In DFW

Unless you plan on teaching art somewhere this is useless

Check out those companies websites I posted. Were you Verizon? Know they’ve had a ton of lay offs recently. You wouldn’t happen to have any Cienna 6500 RLS experience would you?

Plenty of openings in the restaurant industry right now.

I can get you in on a pyramid scheme brother! People with art degrees are prime candidates!
Would you rather sell windows or life insurance?
Super serious let me know!

bro you're doing it so infrequently now that everyone takes it seriously

have you considered selling your organs?

If you apply for jobs that dont have a degree requirement, leave your art degrees off the application/resume.

Is getting a third art degree out of the question?

Baw, I have a history degree so I partially feel your pain, though I think even a history degree is better than a damn art degree. I'm not here to shite on you, though, because regardless of degree status, your situation is what it is and you need a way out.
I fell into the insurance industry when I resigned my first job out of college to avoid being fired for low numbers. After a while, it just sort of became my career due to not really knowing or liking much else. Do I love sales? Absolutely not, lol, but it definitely pays the bills and an extremely stressful career that pays the bills is better than slinging coffee for tips.
I'm not saying you need to sell insurance, but chances are you'll have to sell something with that degree or go back and get another degree in a different field. Lord knows I've considered that a handful of times since graduating LSU in 2008.
You have to buckle up for the bumpy career ride. And guess what -- who fricking cares if you bounce around from one place to another! You're gonna have to do that, by the way, in case you didn't know. It's the best way to get raises nowadays.
Good luck.

Don’t be ‘too good’ for jobs. I’d bet that your local municipality has jobs open- trash man, custodian, etc. They may not be your next career, but they’ll provide salary and benefits in the mean time.
I just had this conversation with my wife last night- I’m not above flipping burgers if it came down to it and that’s literally all I could find.

Where do you live?
Some places have free programs to get trained in skilled trades, which are in high demand these days and you will be protected from AI taking your job any time soon. I'd recommend looking into that, and trying to get an apprenticeship. Skilled trades pay very well.

You don't get 60k TigerDroppings posts on a 14 year old account with an art degree. People with art degrees are too weak to survive here.
