Many churches offer job counseling. Church members who are unemployed, or under-employed, are often given job counsel (even if they don't request it, in some cases).
Here is a sample of the advice given: How to find a job, how to interview, or told to go back to school for more education or told to get a second job if one job isn't meeting their needs.
Here is the "golden nugget" of advice given every time: They are told to do "just any job" if they can't find something they want. They are told to apply at grocery stores, retail jobs, wait tables, etc.
During the recent covid crisis many people lost their jobs, including upper level professionals as well as small business owners. Many of them refused to look for another job doing just "anything". Then they complained and wanted sympathy for being unemployed. If you are one of these people who formerly had a white collar job or a small business, why can't you go work at Amazon warehouse for a while? They pay $15 an hour and up.
Why can't you do what you advised other people to do, which is JUST GET ANY JOB. Or apply at Kroger, Target or Wal Mart? Because all of these businesses are hiring. They are hiring by the thousands, literally. (If you want a list I can PM one to you.) Instacart is hiring 350,000 to be personal shoppers. Surely, if these jobs were good enough for these other people it would be good enough for you, right? Isn't it hypocritical to tell others to "just do any job" if you won't do the same???
