worked my first "real job" doing B2B sales on commission only for about 5 months selling office supplies driving all over town and paying for my own gas. They let me go about 2 weeks ago because i wasn't hitting my quota. Now I'm job searching monday-friday trying to find something. The only problem is all these entry level jobs are mainly bs and they try and make there company sound all professional and then you interview with them and its a job you did not expect. contemplating moving to vegas ..... need some advice

20s is a good time to be a waiter or bar tender and make good money off of tips while you go to school or work on learning a trade. gives you something to fall back on if needed...
Also save money that you make to invest in your future. It shouldnt be just about creating debt with student loans...
20s is also a good time to take jobs that might require you to relocate or travel...

When I was in my 20's people would tell me "you're young, you have time" That's BS you don't have any time you need to start working on your future now.
Here's two options, you can do one or both.
1) Join the military
2) Sign up for community college and take any class that you have interest in. You might end up loving one subject and focusing on that for a career.
Your goal right now is to find something you love and focus on that. If you love what you do then nothing will stop you from succeeding.

I would recommend military service. I was ready to go but my parents talked me out if it and convinced me college was way to go. Now I had fun and lots of sex. But at the end of it all I feel I would have had a better life if I had served my country. Benefits, good insurance, extra cash, more discipline, crazy stories, etc.,
I know EXACTLY the type of jobs you have come across. I've actually been cursed out during an interview because it had been the fourth or so of these jobs I've come across and I had enough and called out the hiring manager as a scam artist. He lost it!!!! "We need you to learn the field and then in 6 months you'll be a manager trainee...." Some sort of nonsense I can't remember. But if it's on Craigslist there is a reason for it.
I've known people that have made it and I've known failures.
The oil drilling business is a good one. Go out to Williston and just stack loot for a couple years.
The pot industry is also on the horizon but should be swallowed up by conglomerates.
Remember, it's not what you know but whom. Tap into your personal network.

Military service does create good habits and I do highly recommend it but now when it's really likely you may actually have to go to fight somewhere I'd avoid it.
Oil business or natural gas, go to the Dakotas, or west Texas. Rural but make bank for a few years. I'd do that.
If you're going to choose school do some kind of engineering, science, or accounting (they're kinda hard unless you've got an aptitude for them) as those will always be in demad. The rest of the degrees are a waste of paper. I got a BA and could have done all the jobs I have done in life without spending the $ I did on college.

Perhaps some night courses might be beneficial? Just to get the ball rolling at least. You don't necessarily have to study something you're planning to do for a career, just something that you enjoy doing. I took some culinary courses a few years ago and it was a great experience. At least you can say you're doing something to further yourself in life.

I will try to be serious here. Start with some sort of assessment (
start by looking on-line...) to find out where your interest lie. Then try to find out what the outlook is for certain jobs and see if there is any common ground. 2 year trade schools are VERY popular right now. Electronics, drafting/design, etc.
I get that it is tough walking out there even with a 4 year business degree. You may have to find something you like and just try and get in entry level. Can be a time consuming climb up the ladder.
I personally may want to get into food someday. I have contemplated a PT job just to get exposure.
But at a minimum, figure out your interests and potential jobs that might fall under that umbrella. THEN maybe you can devise a plan to get there.

Degrees are next to useless now with so many college graduates that you're competing against. Try and get anything with family or friends, build a bankroll and become a covers degen in Vegas.
That's my dream to just pack up, move to America, rely on my winnings and bang some how's.
A degree is pretty useless, except to get your foot in the door career-wise for most white-collar type jobs.

First we all know what you are going through. Time does go quick and employers do not respond well to people just stalling in life. Here is what I would do a little different.
1) Go get a city or county job. The insurance, time off and pension are terrific. Trust me I know! Just get in anywhere, you can always transfer.
2) Pick up a part time job bartending or waiting tables. With your earnings from this job, pay off debt and max out your IRA/401k.

Guys thanks for all the advice First of all i have no interest in the oil business or the military. 2nd i took a commission only sales job because i needed to get the ball rolling and get out of the service industry and try something new. I actually have saved a good amount of money for someone who didn't finish college thats why i took the job.
Honestly sales wasn't my personality and its really tuff hearing 60 no's and a day but I'm glad i did it cause i can leverage it into a better job.
Lastly I'm just trying to figure out a career that i somewhat enjoy and i could be more successful at.
sales did have some pros though... hot girls in the office trying to knock out 2 birds with 1 stone... meeting women and making money. i just wasn't making enough money with my sales and now have to figure something else out.
