I have practically no professional experience at all. not even with fast food or retail, and I am trying to get a first job, literally anything at all, just to get some real experience on my resume and money in my account.

The big problem is that I cannot be on my feet for a full 6–10-hour shift, even with some breaks (medical issue with my feet). I'd guesstimate the most I could do in a day is 2-3 hours without significantly feeling it the next day. So that rules out most fast food, retail, and warehouse work.

I have tried applying to data entry, receptionist, and admin assistant roles, but they never get back to me. (I mostly just go through linkedin)

I would like to further my education to increase my chances of being hired, but I do not have the money for that, and I do not want to take out a loan for the *chance* to get a job that will let me pay it back.

Any and all advice is appreciated, thank you!

I just finished (and loved) the first two Mistborn books, but I wanted to take a break and go check out Elantris before deciding what direction to go in the Cosmere next.

I started The Final Empire as a physical book before switching to audio, so I got to see how certain things were spelled/laid out, so when I switched to audio to finish that and The Well of Ascension, I was very comfortable.

Going into Elantris (or if you have any general advice for Sanderson's books), I want to know if there is anything I should keep in mind when listening to the audiobook version that might make less sense than if I were reading physical. i.e. important maps, proper nouns that might sound similar but I should know are distinct, etc.
