Am I too picky of an applicant? pt.2
So since I'm just young, lazy, entitled and my attitude for listing everything I'm not good at is just too appalling to hear for so many of you, and that nobody should be honest about their flaws, here is what I'm good at.
I'm 19F and in south Brisbane/Logan, I'm an excellent educator, before going to uni to do a ba of education, I was consistently and actively helping peers. I dropped out of mainstream schooling and went into flexi school because my homelife was genuinely awful and I couldn't handle everything at home and mainstream schooling. I excelled at flexi school because everything was easy and just about points. I got my 20 QCE points at age 16, I graduated high school a year early at the age of 16. I continued my high school education to get an ATAR and pass general math as I had only done essential math. I did that over the course of a year. As I did that I was assisting my peers, many were there because they also had awful homelives or they had a criminal record or were using drugs or in recovery, some had english as a second, third, fourth or fifth language. Of course there was the staff who were gracious and kind and selflessly helpful. But there is only so much one can do to help someone who doesn't respect authority. I worked hard, I pushed my peers into getting what they needed to graduate. Some of them had never got anything higher than a C ever, and I helped them by working with them step by step and they got their first ever Bs. I'm incredibly proud of myself for that.
I'm a people person and like to help others, even if it's something simple like: "What restaurant should I eat at? Where should I get shoes from? What store has good formal attire." I enjoy helping others and I think I'm good at it.
I also enjoy writing, acting and humanities. I like expanding my knowledge and learning new skills and general information happening in the world and the past.
These are my genuine qualities, as someone with autism, anxiety and depression (yes I'm medicated and have been seeing professionals since I was 12), someone who isn't good at standard assignments and tests, which Tafe or university wouldn't be suited for, and someone who is slow at maths.
As well as someone who relies on public transport, has plantar fasciitis and long standing stomach issues such as gastritis, someone who struggles with fatigue and realistically can't work more than 25 hours a week, (which means I'm also physically weak because I struggle with finding energy to be physically active) What can I do, seriously? What jobs am I able to do with a Cert III in business and my background? What areas of work would I be able to do and not have to just live on $494 a fortnight from Centrelink, and actually be able to improve my existence and go out so I'm not home bound because I'm poor. I want genuine constructive answers.
