You got to get the hell out of that town however you can. What you say reminds me of York, Pennsylvania, where my brother lived for a while. The only jobs were factories and he hated them. I remember he worked in a kitty litter plant for some time. I'm pretty sure that time is one of the dullest, greyest times of his life. The town was depressing even just as a visitor - interesting, in the way that I find small towns to be, but clearly not a succeeding small town.
Just save up money and go. I realize we're talking about how you're having difficulty finding a good job so that's not the most easy advice to follow right now but seriously. As little money as you think you can go on, and go.
