Remember the claim "I did not have sex with that woman" and you say you are not rationalizing/explaining. President Clinton was a classic case of exactly what you claim you aren't doing, just like he did. It is what it is.

I don't think it's funny at all, your family statement is scary that they would think it is. I used to have a man call my place of employment for valid reasons to check/update his file. He would seem nice and ask how I was doing. Then he would ask more to keep me talking. It wasn't even dirty, but it made me uncomfortable. I came to realize that as he talked to me, he was most likely taking care of himself. It was not a comfortable situation and I personally would not take his calls. But that's me and you are you, and it is what it is.

I realize you got fired, you haven't been able to find another job,i'ts been a while, there's nothing in your area, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, but from what you post here, I am not surprised. You say you have a degree, but you are looking for things that don't require a degree. You mention things that are a luxury for many like (and I am not going back to look so I may not quite have this part right) dog walking, house sitting, selling Avon, house cleaning, etc - things/jobs that are the first people give up when they themselves can't afford it.

I suggested earlier, with all sincerity, that you go back to school. You had excuses about that too. Others have also sincerely offered thoughts, ideas, and support. Admittedly, not all have written what you want to hear. Basically they are telling you to stop your pity party, get in reality, respect yourself and others - you are not the only person unemployed.

Prostitution involves sex and money. You would be but a phone line/air wave away but still accomplishing the same thing. Taking money for someone else's "pleasure".

I can see why your previous employer fired you, even if you can't.
