<prompt> Human: Hello everyone,I probably should post this in rdepression too, but I figured I would try here.I started working for county job back in 2015 and worked there for about 10 months and a vendor position opened up from which I was making 14.30 an hour to 18.00 an hour. The company is based out of a large city 120 miles away from the site I maintain. I have to maintain around 13,000 devices within warranty for 26 sites in the area. Hours I work is 52 weeks of the year 5 days a week roughly 37,500 a year.I have to use my car to pick up laptops or work on computers onsite which I get 45 cents a mile. Well I have been at the company for a year and a half today and have worked my ass off and worn my car pretty badly over time too. In the past year I have had 3 managers go in and out. 3 Months ago I asked for a raise and my manager which is a really nice guy but everything even over his head on these things said There are no raises consider this a stepping stone I confirmed this with research people have been within the company for over 5 years without raises.Living is rather expensive for me since I live in an expensive area and take care of my disabled mother. Rent is 1150 a month and bills including insurance and car payments add an additional 800. Only reason why we have been on top is since my mother gets a disability check for 725 each month. Currently have 10K in savings for emergencies and moving.I have been searching on dice and indeed and other job sitesFor the last 3 months I have been looking for a job. I have a BS in information management and cyber security. My CompTIA security A and over 7 years in information technology, but I never get phone calls back on resumes. It seems like imp stuck in a hole I cant dig out of. Edit: this exploded ill respond to everyone in the morning. Thank you for your suggestions and help!Edit2: Thank you everyone for your responses. It means allot to me that so many people care and can reason with my current problems. I have started to work on my resume and am continuing to work on my CCNA and other suggestions people have offered.  <response>: You are in a great position to get a better job it seems. If you havent gotten any call backs then you arent putting enough out or your resume isnt doing you justice. Put a lot of effort into making your resume perfect, no mistakes, honest etc. Post it on rresumes without personal data to get some feedback. You want to really sell yourself. When that is done, start pumping them out. When you get interviews be positive and confident. Dont mope about your problems like they need to do you a favour by hiring you. Work on interview skills by practicing with people or in a mirror or camera. Try being friendly and personable. Also, research areas that are related to what you already have. Maybe something related pays better and you only need a little bit of touch up to get in.
