<prompt> Human: Ive sort of given up on applying for jobs. I honestly wont take a job stereotypical where you work with the public all day long flipping burgers , bagging groceries, etc but I could work behind the scenes. The problem is that my 2 year programming degree is getting old now, and I dont know how opposed most businesses are to hiring people who havent worked in years. A big part of the problem could be that my split parents have let me live with them off and on enabling. I know its a weakness that I wont take just any kind of job either, but I sure wish the government would do something to help the long term unemployed.  <response>: There are quite a few programs run by both the federal government and individual state governments to help the unemployed. Part of the problem sounds like you wont take responsibility for your own future. Youve blamed your parents and the government for why you dont have a job and then say youll only take certain jobs.
