Yeah you have to lie. Here's my recommendation:
>DO LIE ABOUT
years of experience, past jobs, even education - you can invent a 2 year degree in some bullshit from a community college, not related to the wagie job you're applying for and they will never check but it will help you. if you had other jobs and hated them, lie about that - you liked them but you moved on to other opportunities or had some downtime due to family issues or whatever. This is another thing to lie about, resume gaps. You can fill them in partway and make up bullshit for the rest.
>DON'T LIE ABOUT
what you can actually do when you show up. you will get busted instantly if you claim some kind of specific technical skill and you show up and know nothing on day 1. if you claim to be, idk, really well organized when you're a spastic idiot and land some administrative job and completely fuck everything up within a week it is over. if you are genuinely too inept for the most wagie job, then get on disability.
>BONUS FOR AUTISTS

Ask your interviewers how they got into this job/field. Even if they're the manager at walmart, idgaf. This is a good one for the "do you have any questions for us?" stage at the end of the interview. It will either be a cool story they are excited to tell in which case they are happy you asked and also you can act like wow they're so cool for having such an interesting life, OR it will just be "idk man i've been working at walmart for like 20 years we all just have to do what we have to do to make it through life" and at that point you can relate to that genuinely and tell them that essentially you're in the same spot and just looking for a break. Asking your interviewers this is an absolute winner.
