I have a degree that would put me at Helpdesk Level II if I could find a fucking job.

I literally don’t know how to find remote jobs, so I continue to just find and work shitty blue-collar jobs in my city.

I have CML and it would be really nice to have a job that sort of helped me get my medical problems in order. It’s either that or being a deadbeat who works part-time just so I can qualify for the ACA and get my $16k a month medications covered.

I have other health problems beyond the CML that would make my life a lot easier if I didn’t have to be on my feet all day. I really struggle with it and have to take anti-nausea meds all day and pain meds all day to manage it, whereas I don’t need those anywhere near as much if I’m in a chair.

So the first order of business, Lemmy, is how the hell do I even look for a remote job to begin with?

I’ll probably come back for more questions about how to actually get a job like that because I feel like I don’t know wtf I’m doing when it comes to resumes/cover letters either (part of it is I don’t want to write fan-fiction about some shitty job that will mistreat me).

    I get job alerts from a site called Rat Race Rebellion and see help desk type jobs pop up pretty often. The jobs are almost always work at home and supposed to be confirmed legit job postings - which so far the ones I’ve looked at do check out.
