Returning to work after caring for family (update)

I used to work as a barista and I am looking for a part-time role to start. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. I have been taking an online course. What helped?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 7 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

Some employers run returnship programmes. Search for them in Cincinnati.
