How can you be jobless? There are so many jobs available like freelance Grab driver or delivery man. Cleaners, security guards, and if you can cook something good, borrow around 15k and start to be your own boss in any hawker center or kopitiam. See, so many options. What else do you want? Unless you are in PAP and have an iron rice bowl in Parliament.

Jobs are always there.

What you don't have is the will to look and do them. You should look within you and sort that out first.

I have no driving license and never learn how to ride a bicycle, so Grab is out for me.

Cleaners, no contractors want to hire me.

Security guard, need to take basic courses.

I have to start all over again and had myself to blame for been a low wage earner for my whole life.

In my younger days, I also did not do enough to hold on to my job.

And
