So i'm fed up of my life right now. I've been stuck in the same old boring admin jobs for 2 years now and i need to get out of it. I've got a degree in Computer Science but was never that confident that i learnt many skills from it.

There is a computing job that i can apply for which i might usually be able to apply for apart from the fact that i would have to give a presentation on something i'd know nothing about as part of the interview. I'm nowhere near confident enough to do this. I turned down an interview in the same place about 4-5 months ago for this same reason and have been quite miserable ever since. I can't go back to admin work (boring filing an photocopying everyday...although i have been saying this for a year) but i don't see myself being able to have the courage or skills to go through an intense interview and presentation.

I spend most of the time in my day thinking about how i can make money myself but i really don't feel i have the skills to do so.
