I'm in my 30s so I should be used to this by now, but this shit is getting so stressful guys. I have no savings, my checking account is drained every month with rent, and if there's ever a serious emergency I have no safety net, I'm legitimately fucked. I'm one unplanned expense away from absolute ruin. Those in the same boat as me, how do you deal with this?

You can try for customer support, legal assistant, virtual receptionist, virtual assistant, scheduler, appointment setter, or just go into sales if you are good at that, all of those pretty normally don't require any experience at all.

If you have some good tech skills you can also go for help desk or it technician.

Btw school would be ideal to learn something but it's not the only way to learn, you can try Udemy or just YouTube to learn a lot of stuff that could help you land a new job.
