And if things weren't bad enough...

So I called the temp agency that I sent an application to a bit ago, and they say "Well, we have a position for an evening shift position in C-Burg." I tell them that might be difficult for me to get to, since I have no car/license. And he says, without skipping a beat, "Well, if you don't have a driver's license, this office can't help you." Nobody at that place ever told me that. I wasted a good deal of my time -- an hour spent doing their online application, then another hour or so for their stupid paper application and tests -- for nothing.

It's not like I was expecting this. It's a temp agency, for fuck's sake. These people are supposed to cater to those who have trouble getting a steady job. A driver's license and car requirement seems excessive, given the kind of people who end up in that situation. So now, it's a Catch-22. If I want a temp job, I need a license. In order to get a license (which requires car insurance, gas money, etc.), I need a job.

Things can't get much worse.
