  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

Looking for a job is a job far more punishing than many of the paid jobs I've had :(

I’ve had some really miserable jobs that barely put me through school and many of those jobs were less work/demoralizing than my job search. Feels just hopeless.

Expensive too. I don't think I've ever jumped ship at the wrong time, but the consequences when there's no other work free is terrible. Current customer service job is low pay but much easier to show up and do extra hours, nice staff and nice customers - a first!
