don't give up, and pycho, if you're seriously doing everything in your power to get a job, then you ain't lazy, if you say you can't and aren't working at it everyday, then that's lazy, if you need a job that is

Wow wow wow we can't reply to this till we know a little about you. What do you look like what type of education do you have? What type jobs have you been after? Sorry but to get honest feedback we need to know.

You need to do more than just fill out apps.
If the job market there is as bad as most right now, they probably are sifting through a TON of applications... now it's time to go through your list of places you've applied to and contact them to reiterate your interest.
Having been in charge of staffing the bar where I used to work, I can tell you that I rarely called back an applicant based ONLY on their application... it was after they called to see if we had considered it, it helped show that they were really serious and organized.

Did you lie on your application? Try lying to make it look good. That's what I do, and it works!

What part of WV and how old are you? I used to live up there and can recommend some easy to get decent paying jobs, you just gotta know where to look...

One thing I gather is you aren't coming off as a professional, hard-worker.

I couldn't tell you what you are doing wrong. How exactly are you approaching this?

In a job market that's dry, especially in places like WV, you gotta bug the shit out of them sometimes. Not in an annoying way, but in a persistent manner. A phone call isn't enough. Where I live is fine, because they're jobs up the ass. In a tighter job market, you have to show you are willing to go the extra mile.

Still, I think someone you project is inhibiting you.
