Going back to your original question. Asking decent conservative folks how they "feel" about something is a waste of time. Further, claiming you can't find a job is pure self delusion as your subsequent posts clearly show that finding a job is the furthest thing from your mind. Finally, your sloppy/lazy writing style shows you are clearly unsuited for any type of office work and your efforts at educating yourself were wasted.
Personally, I don't feel anything about you. Even pity would be wasted.
Sorry new writer, I as a female with just a nursing degree found after a few years I was not suited to my job. I was so involved with my patients I would call on my day off to check on them. A death was to me a failure and just could not get around the fact that death was a natural outcome for some of my cases.
So I quit my job and drove a school bus, now there was a sit down job. Later I moved and got a job at minimum wage in a cosmetic company, moved after a lay off and found myself working in the bilges of ships doing lagging.
Next job lasted 22 years, worse one I ever had, standing on wet concrete floors 10 hours a day, some times 6-7 days a week, exhausting. Started at $5.00 an hour and by the time I retired was making $20.00 an hour with benefits and a 5 week vacation paid every year.
Now I hated my JOB, but the management was super and I managed to have some fun with coworkers, we became family. All in it together and we bust our ass to make the company successful. Bonus checks of a weeks pay at the end of the year helped.
WORK is just that, WORK, it is not suppose to be fun or easy, we do not all get a job being a recreation director on the Love Boat.
I can see where your family is coming from, hard work and pride in doing so. Every time I got my pay check it was to me a pat on the back for being valuable to the enterprise and gave me the feeling I was worth something to society.
Now that I have retired I am a bit adrift, I get my #SS check every month for doing nothing but being alive. There is no satisfaction every week from seeing the results of my labor, no more team work and the lets all pull together for a common good.
You Sir may not like welding but if you are good at it, well that is WORK, get better at it, learn from the old timers. I was surprised to find we in the manufacturing jobs earned more then the sit down office staff who could not get over time.
One woman in her late 50's worked all the overtime offered and made $35,000 one year and she could not read or write or speak English well.
Excuses------shame on you.
