I am at the point where I will do anything to leave my job even for the same salary.I'm now looking into goverment jobs and I am keeping my fingers crossed. I gave up on my goals and started looking for any type of job and anywhere. I already travel over an hour to get to work now. I do live within in my means that I am good with. My pt job is for savings and emergencies. I am not in debt. I know that bills will follow but something is missing in my life and I want to find it. I dont' want to live and die in NJ .you know?
Thank you for all you info I will surely way my option sbefore doing anything drastic. I am praying something will work out for me here

Good to know a sista completed college with no debt - kudos to that once again. One place to consider for a university job is UMDNJ - they pay well for most entry level jobs and with time you should be able to advance easily. Difficult part is getting a foot in the door. Also have you looked into non-profits some pay very well.
I wish you the best of luck ..... and will remember you in my prayers.
