I really desperately need a job right now and I'm not even getting interviews at fast food places.

It's really starting to look like I'm going to have to just lie my way into having a better resume. I have no moral problem with this, but I'm worried I'll be asked to verify things. I did some volunteer work for a library when I was in high school one summer. This was like five years ago. Would I have any problem if I extended that couple months out to a couple years?

Mostly I'm worried they'll call the library themselves to verify. It seems unlikely to me that they would still have a record of this, but I'm not sure.

    Can't drive either. Yeah it fucks you, a huge number of jobs list a license as a requirement even if there is no reason that'd ever be the case. If you can it's probably the biggest thing for boost employability and if you can't, there's always lying. big-cool

    45 minutes seems... optimistic though. Especially if you don't live near the center of a city. I've never had a commute less than an hour by public transport except when I've been WFH (like now).
