Shut up. Being melodramatic is annoying.

Apply to community college, do that bit, go to uni, get a job.

Maybe not all in that order. Maybe join the service. Lots of options out there. My own path was 5.5 years Marine Corps Reserve, while working, while raising a little one, while going to community college when I could. Now I'm still going to community college but earned a position as a software dev for a company.

Maybe I never got a software job, who cares. It's a job, and there are plenty of jobs out there. The immortal words to aspire to: 'man can't find work, ain't lookin hard enough' - Jayne Cobb.
