'Jersey Shore' Star -- I Can't Get Arrested in This Town ... So I Got a Real Job

Former "Jersey Shore" star Angelina Pivarnick hasn't appeared on MTV for years ... and after failing to catch fire in the entertainment world -- the Staten Island Dump is giving up and getting a job.

Pivarnick was just accepted into an EMT school in NYC where she will train for the next 3 months ... and then, assuming she actually shows up, Angelina will be certified.

Angelina tells us, "Being the 'Jersey Shore' bitch is in the past ... now, my future is saving lives."
