I've got approximately one month before I'm all finished at university. I'm seriously dreading it.
I've recently found out, that getting work in my field (TV/Film production) will be next to impossible for me, as I'm medically not allowed to drive. EVERY entry level position in the area I want to work in, demands a driving licence. This is for mostly office based runner duties, with occasional errand running.
So I'm trying to think of other jobs I CAN do, I'm drawing a blank.
Due to my eyesight, there are some jobs that I don't feel comfortable with the idea of doing - such as waitressing where you're balancing a lot of food and drinks on your arms, or factory work.
I seriously don't know what to do. I live at home at the moment and I've always had an agreement with my parents that I wouldn't pay rent til I was earning (I don't LIKE this agreement btw, was always trying to give them some of my wages from summer jobs, but they'd never take it). They've said as soon as I've finished, I'm to go on jobseekers and start giving them rent. No problem there, but seriously, what can someone who can't drive, can't see well and has trained in totally the wrong area, do for a job?
I'm a bit scared the job centre will try and force me into a job where I don't feel confident in my abilities to do it, or safe, with the whole eyesight thing.
AIBU to worry about life after university? :(
