I would have to agree.

Writing jobs? Please show us you can write better than you have in this thread.

14-18 applications I nowhere near enough. Since you are applying for entry level retail jobs you probably need to apply to 40 or so jobs before you get an offer. I base this on the fact that I would get about 40-60 applications for every person I hired back in the day when I was a retail manager.
