Assume this:
You are an unemployed video editor who has done stage and prop construction, but can't find a job because NOBODY in Hollywood is hiring.
You have to pay rent and bills, but are totally out of cash. You've even applied at Taco Bell and Walmart, but THEY WON'T HIRE YOU!
Now you're depressed and late on your rent with bills to pay and have almost maxed your credit card.
What would you do to survive?
Answer
Is it possible for you to do some work for a wedding photographer editing videos? If you have equipment can you freelance at some local events? Can do do carpentry- aka prop construction- for someone?
Yard work?Babysitting? Pool Cleaning?
I would assume you have already made all possible cuts in expenditures to your lifestyle, but review it again.
Lastly, start figuring out a backup plan.Can you move in with family for example till you are back on your feet.
Good Luck!

Lifeguarding Orientation?? Help!!?
Jake
What do they do in lifeguarding orientation? Should I review my training skills or not. Will they make me deminstrate scenios or not... How can I be prepared for it???
Answer
Most lifeguard orientations are centered around the facility, you will be shown where everything is, how to fill out your time sheet, and other general hiring practices like tax forms. You may also be trained in how to do chemical tests and clean depending on your facility.
I am, however a firm believer in better safe than sorry... so study up a little bit on scenarios and be sure to pack a swim suit, towel, and pocket mask with you so that if they do want to do scenarios you are prepared. Mostly when pools do testing prior to hiring they either have special circumstances (a 14 foot deep pool) or want to see how lifeguards will react in some situations. This can range from having you perform in a scenario or simply talk through one at a desk.
Be confident, and even if you do not perform perfectly always be open to correction and ask for guidance if needed. If you are still worried about it, call the pool where you are having orientation and simply ask them what equipment you will need to bring. Ask, "will I need a swimsuit during orientation? does my first shift start during this orientation? will there be scenarios/skill testing?" These are questions that employers will be happy to answer and even happier that their future staff members had the fore thought to ask... Good Luck!
