I'm from asia and I'm relatively young (22) and it's literally fucking impossible to get a job. I've been trying everything and I don't understand why it's extremely difficult to land a no-skill minimum-wage job. It's fucking ridiculous and it's tiring me out I'm in a terrible financial situation right now. I live with my mother and we're struggling to scrape by now, I live off noodles and pasta (I've lost about 5kg just this month) so anyway to make some money would be great. So Bros, I ask you, how do I get a job, or better yet, how do I make money as a broke, skillness loser such as myself? Because I am flat-ass BROKE

This is pretty much correct. Managers want to know that you'll eat out of the garbage can of productivity with a grin on your face. Red flags in an interview involve any sense of self-respect or friction with the existing system.
