@SuperBowser: I will agree that crying seems to relieve stress, but that's not something I have experienced. I don't think I've cried in maybe 3 years or more, and I've forgotten how it feels. But that's important.
@Zook: I've never had a pet, but I can imagine that after a short while, they become very close, just like family. And no one wants to lose family. Hopefully, you enjoyed your time with your frog. Good memories have healing power, I think.
(I ran into a frog on my way home last night. It was right under my boot, and hopped away just in time. I thought that it was weird that a frog would be out in Cleveland...)
@1048576: There's no need to be like that. He was simply offering advice. "You probably think the Holocaust was the Jews' fault." That comparison has nothing to do with this. It's can't be someone's fault for being persecuted, but there might very well be something you're doing that isn't getting you a job. Like the attitude?
But seriously, I seem to have kind of the same problem. I'm 18, so the jobs I'm looking for aren't necessarily in professional environments, but I present myself very well, and I don't think my applications are worse than any other teenager looking for work. Yet I find myself thinking, "How is it that that idiot has a job, and I don't?" There are a lot of factors that employers look for when hiring someone. What I would recommend is going back to those who didn't hire you, and ask why they didn't. That is, if you haven't already. There are often little things that turn employers onto or off of a potential employee, things that they (the applicant) would not necessarily be aware of. Just my two cents.
EDIT: Apparently, you already asked them. Perhaps look over your resume a few times? Check your appearance (hygiene, not the cost of your suit). Even something as simple as the way you articulate words can have an effect.
