I don't know the compensation schedule for Red State, but you might have to look at that as a secondary job to supplement your income rather than your primary source of income.

If you haven't had a lot of luck with Voc Rehab, you might try your local Workforce Center. They can help you match your strengths to jobs in your community.

Looks like OK Voc Rehab is currently using Order of Selection, which is basically a waiting list for their services--in Order of Selection, people with more significant disabilities are prioritized for ongoing supports and services than those folks with less significant disabilities. I don't know how significantly your disability impacts your activities of daily living (ADL), but if you are ever assessed again (people seeking disability benefits are often assessed on an annual basis), be honest with your assessor and let them know what your "bad" days are like. People often under report the significance of their disability due to the stigmas surrounding disability.

Pay for VR Counselors in Kansas is criminally below market value (not to mention the reimbursement rates for providers of VR services). Any VR Counselor in KS that lives within 60 miles of the border (of any of our surrounding states) will work across the border due to the increase in pay.

I justwish people understand why I'm so hesitant to get back to job like walmart or taco bell or lowes. Not only dealing with asshole bosses but the injuries this was from taco bueno since then i got hepatitis A kidney stones twices gallbladder surgery back strain and legs bruise

[threebag]

How about being one of those spark shoppers for Walmart? Delivery driver? There are a bunch of hustles that you could do along with RedState. Door Dash, Grub Hub and some other shit too. Hope you get figured out and not have to stress about it. Praying for you nut.

Maybe apply to be a door greeter at Wal-Mart? I see those folks sitting on stools frequently, so that would be easier than manual labor.

[big nasty kcnut]

I was fired from wal mart i was actually yelled at for trying to sit down when i had to fill in as a greeter a few times.

Again, a tough love situation here.

You have shot down most if not all of the job opportunities people have suggested to you. You can't get through to the unemployment office, you can't work a job because of various reasons you've listed.

As Fat Elvis said, maybe you need to be reevaluated for the level of disability you're facing. Be honest with the person doing the interview. Hell, go to your doctor and have them evaluate you.

If it truly is this severe, I fail to see how you don't qualify for at least some SSI money.

Nut, you may have an disability, but you've got a lot of good things going for you too. You've got to do your part or you're going to fall into an endless cycle of not being able to pay your bills and the kindness of people on the internet is going to wane if you aren't trying to help yourself

Try applying at a different Wal Mart then? I know for a fact they let a lot of door greeters sit down because I see it all the time. Maybe it just varies depending on the manager of the particular store?

[Yosef_Malkovitch]

Another idea, get a 3rd shift job watching security monitors at a business somewhere. Those guys get to sit there all night.

[big nasty kcnut]

Well it not like that if you seen me you would understand why i have turned down someone of your job ideas Like i could drive but i get fatigued when i'm doing physical activity like my hands start shaking or my legs spasms my disability is in a way is like a schoginzer cat half crippled and not crippled. You should've seen my boss when i held a knife at work one day and my hands was shaking like i was a meth addict

Good Luck, nut

What qualifications or formal evidence of training do you have to get jobs that are not menial in nature? Do you have any degrees or certificates or anything?

A growing trend now is vocational certificates. They don't take as long as getting a degree, but you go and get some specific training and you get a certificate showing that you're qualified for a job. It seems like it's a great way to get your foot in the door in different fields that might hold more long-term financial promise for you.

One bit of career advice that I'm often foisting on people is to ignore the cute saying of "don't do something 8 hours a day that you don't love". The optimal goal is not to seek happiness for 8 hours a day. The optimal goal is to be happy for 24 hours a day. Find a job that will make you happiest for 24 hours a day (e.g., paying bills, saving money, funding vacations, etc.), even if it's not fun or sexy.
