These days are very hard to get a job specially without a skill and an education which coming out of HS you have neither. Before I say what I am going to say I'll say this, without a college degree or a skill it is still possible to get a good job and to be successful Im not saying that it's not possible. With that said these days you have to go to college or go to school and get a trade card to be a plumber, electrician, etc. I dont know if you ever heard of it but somebody that goes to college makes on average of a million bucks more than somebody that didnt go. If you do the math, for somebody that works say 30 years they will make 33 grand more a year than somebody that doesnt. Now school isnt for everybody. You can always not do any schooling at all and try to work your way up the ladder of whatever field you want to do. I assuming right out of HS your only going to find stuff that pays 10-12 an hour which if your living with parents might not be to bad, but you are an adult now and after some time probably should leave and does getting out hs and buying a new car make sense NO. Maybe someday with 10-15 years of experience you can be up at 20 bucks an hour which Ill be frank isn't that much money. Schooling is the key, these days if you do not have a degree you can pretty much count your self out of a lot of jobs. It's hard out there. If your content with toping out at 20-25 and hour and bouncing from job to job that's fine but just think about all of it and I always say when you make a decision how will this affect me 5 years from now.

Another option is the military I was in the army but I went in as an Officer so its a different route. But you go in and get a job skill dont get talked into doing something like Infantry or tanks etc. Do something in communication, HR, finance, supply. Ive seen plenty of soldiers that held jobs like these get out after 4 years and get good jobs in those fields. On top of it you can get out and go to college or any sort of trade school, trucking driving, etc for free. Personally if I had to go back I think I would have done AF or Navy. Although the Army has the most job fields and you are guarenteed that job when you sign up. The corp is a good person builder and is for the hardcore but as far job skills beyond maybe discipline and leadership I dont think they have the variety like the others. Nothing against the Corp but they are there to simply land on beached and create a beach head for the Army.
