I recently moved across Canada and the place that I'm in doesn't have a huge amount of work options. I also do not want to end up homeless and need a source of income. I've been looking for work local but honestly dealing with people face to face stresses me the almighty fuck out. Working from home has never been an issue.

I'm just in a situation where I've got basically no work experience for the past couple of years. I'm trying to find work online in Canada but I don't know where in the fuck to start. Stress levels are pretty stupidly high at the moment too and I'm just trying to figure out something.

Until you do find paid work… volunteer.

You’ll get to know the org you volunteer with, you’ll interact with and get to know your community.

Volunteer for long enough, and you’ll make some local friends who can lend a hand, or help you find things and services you need.

Mention that you’re looking for work, and I’m sure someone will find something for you, or give you ideas.
