Overwhelmed looking for a part time job

Jake

I feel more scared and anxious than ever having to look for a part time job to accompany my time at college. Ive been trying to look online but i find it all so confusing and im socialy anxious so trying to ask around is terrifying to me. I need to start earning something to help pay for my mum. This subject i think is challenging my fear of social interaction and i just feel run over.

  • Hi Jake. That sounds really hard. I just wanted to wish you well and good luck. I've not had the same experiences as you so can't offer advice, but wish you well. I am sure the right job and right employer is out there for you.

    I can also add that I decided to start part time gardening in addition to my job because I love being out in nature and love plants. It is like my therapy! I am lucky to have a few but lovely clients. I approached a local independent nursery one day in desperation and they put me in touch with my now clients who are genuine plant people who value and understand the input of a gardener. These have been more successful and fulfilling clients and gardens than those I had found by advertising alone. Just in case this was an option you were considering. I'd recommend approaching an independent nursery or grower for potential new clients.
