Anyone else struggling with hearing back from employers?

I'm over 50 applications in as of today. I'm not looking for any career gig. Literally applying from everything from retail, kitchens, hotels, whatever. And no matter what? I never hear back. Ever. I'm lucky if I even get an email saying they've chosen another applicant. Better yet, I've gotten emails asking to set up an interview and when I give my availability- you never hear back.

I have a friend seemingly struggling as well. She's just starting and hasn't heard anywhere. I was just wondering, is this common? I don't have a bad resume either. Each job I stay 2+ years at, I have store management on it, majority of my experience is retail. I'm just so lost on what the fuck to do. This is insane
