<prompt> Human: Long story short I got fired from my fast-food part time job for introverted behavior quiet, lack of interaction, socially incompetent and I cant get another job since I was recently fired for that and nobody wants to hire me. I have 1000 in the bank but food and gas are sinking that number and I cant find a job. Ive walked from building to building for hours in this 100 degree weather asking for a minimum wage job. I spend my days working out, reading, and filling out online applications. Pressure is rising since I start college in a month and I have bills to pay like insurance and phone bill. Ive resorted to doing yard work for a rather well off friend of mine but long days in the sun have ruined my skin and made me less motivated. Also Im not on a formal payroll. The only thing I have to my name as a high school graduate is a diploma and food handlers card that expires next month. I know Ill eventually find a job and I am just in a phase but since I have no school or work I am depressed by the meaningless of the predicament. To make matters worse I did get a job a week after getting fired but only because I lied about never being employed and fired. But once I had to file paperwork for the job the paper threatened perjury under law for lying so I just never went back to turn it in. Ive tried looking into job agencies, online applications, walk In interviews, and nobody wants me because I was freshly fired. Im running out of options and soon 1 month when I start college I really will begin to hurt from this. Any advice on how to fix this predicament would be much appreciatedAssistant: stop telling employers you got fired.. thats a start. Human: I never told a single employer I did. But theres no lying on the government papers. Without perjury under law.Assistant: Just lie. Nobody gives a fuck about your old job just pretend it didnt exist. Human: This is the obvious answer until the paperwork is subject to government scrutiny.Assistant: No government would allow such a thing, itd only foster permanent unemployment. Just lie, it is your survival. You r life has priority over the company youre applying to.Human: Everyones telling me to lie. I just fear lying then getting caught or not going through on the paperwork and Im back to square one. But your right if I say I got terminated Ill be walking in this 100 degree weather until my skin tears off worse then it already is. This is my survival and I cant back out this time.Assistant: Stop fabricating excuses. Seize the initiative, be an American. Human: Whats this have to do with being American  <response>: I think he meant it as in AmeriCAN, rather than an AmeriCANTSource: I use this line :
