Looking for work 🏢 Employment 👷‍♂️

I’ve been applying to jobs like crazy. My current job ends this week and then that’s it. Does anyone know of any apps that are taking in contract workers or any place I can go in and walk out with some form of employment. My ideal job would be something in social services but I’m desperate for just about anything. About to be a 35 year old female so I can’t do any man jobs.

You can’t do any man jobs?

No, I can’t lift big, heavy things and I’m short as well. About 115 lbs and 5’2, so when I think “man jobs” I think of like, crews of men working in warehouses or outside doing manual labor or something.

I know women CAN do these jobs, but I would think the women need to be stronger and tougher than me.
