Kinda a sensitive topic to troll about. Most everyone here has been laid off and can sympathize with OP.

The OT is like an online family will troll the shite out of someone and make fun of them but won’t allow any outsider(opposing fan) to do the same and if someone comes here with a serious problem, everyone will offer advice…as long as pics of wife are provided

The two art degrees and years of experience in cafes didn't give it away to you?

Has to be a troll. Shitty jobs like working at a cafe are easy to come by. Would be more believable if we were talking white collar jobs. Those are going the way of the dinosaurs ant this point. And AI everything from both employers and applicants has messed the process up completely.

The ATS filters out resumes that do not meet criteria of the posting

ATS and Workday in particular, need to burn in the deepest depths of hell. Mention knowledge of networking, but don't explicitly use "TCP/IP?" Shitcanned! Say "Data Loss Prevention," but not add "DLP" somewhere in the CV? Shitcanned!

Now, I have to use ChatGPT for every single application. 52 unique applications since March 1.

Troll bait…I’ll play.

If you are soliciting feedback on your lack of success in 1st 10 applications—to remedy, you won’t need 90 more.

I smell a hygiene and / or a felony problem.

I’m thinking troll based on this and my previous interactions on here with OP.

If you have a degree you can always teach or substitute teach.

Go find any restaurant job until you find something better. It will at least get some money coming in asap and likely cover rent to avoid eviction. Wont pay all your bills or support your lifestyle, unless you get a good serving/bartending job, but if desperate, that is always a solid fall back.
