I am 32 years old 16 years ago I was in a major car accident. The doctors told my mother that I would probably not live, and if I did, I would be a vegetable. Then they said that I would never be able to walk. I am walking. The teachers said I would never graduate college. I did!!! I got a job at Target, worked extremely hard, probably harder than I should have for 90 days. When I had my 90 day review, my boss told me that I was worthless. It pissed me off and I told him off. I ended up quitting my job. That was ten years ago. I have a BA in Liberal Studies. What do I need to do?

Well I have trouble figuring out what a liberal studies major would do to begin with. But, anyone with a 4 year college degree could be an officer in the military. Or since you are disabled use that to your advantage and get a civil service job with the government.
In today's world your best chances at job security are in the government or funeral homes. Take your pick.
As the saying goes the only two things that are guaranteed are TAXES and Death.

You have many options and you are young too. You could find a job or think about starting some business, if that is possible. One of the good things with business is that you are your own boss and if it works, you will be better off than a job. You will earn far more than you can in a job. But if you like doing jobs, then you can find a job in which your disability( if there is any) is not a problem. Remember, Stephen Hawking is disabled. That has not stopped him from doing the things that he is doing. Don't lose heart.

I had the same job situation. Just move past it. A lot of retail managers cannot think past their own mundane lives, and they may envy people who work harder than they do or who may be more mature or more disciplined than they are. Or sometimes they just start petty crap because they are bored in the workplace or because their home life sucks. You got a BA so clearly you're not too bad off. Find something that you enjoy doing. Experiment. I'm doing the same thing. Ever consider writing about your experiences?

You don't need to do anything and prove anything to anyone you are a strong person, and that is clearly seen by what you have acheived in your life! You should be proud of yourself and take what the negatives are in you life and turn them around to be a positive. Well done and good luck in the future.

Leave the past behind and move on.
Don't let bitterness eat you away. It's not worth it.
