For all my joking around and spelling mistakes sometimes just want to tell you, for what its worth, youre not alone. Im in a pretty dire situation myself and have bin in the past with zero friends/family nearby no job in sight. Watching the change jar run out.
If as a stranger I can say anything its that when you make it out you will be stronger then ever. This is true.
Keep posted when possible and watch as many of your fav matches on line when you can. Wrestling saves lives.

Okay.
So the call center didn't work out.
But I had an interview at McDonalds Tuesday, and it seemed to go very well.
They told me the next orientation was in two weeks, the manager gave me her name and number and told me to call, saying she saw nothing wrong and I seemed like a good fit.
The only thing she didn't tell me was that I had the job.
It SOUNDS like I do, but I don't know for sure.

It's usually a "Rules/Regulations/Testing" thing too. You're not officially hired until after that stuff though. The testing is Usually Basic Safety/Basic Math done to weed out the COMPLETE Burnouts. If you weren't needed/implied hired, I don't think they'd even tell you about it, as its usually a hassle to organize.

It's pretty well known by the FAWA vets that I was in a situation not unlike this myself. I got it together. Never doubt your abilities and stay positive, Jonathan. I'm happy to say I'm now working 40 hours a week at a job I love, with nothing but good things coming down the pipeline. This will happen for you. It's only a matter of when.

Things like this a man needs to know. In all seriousness, good luck.

Yup pipelines and trades. Trades are making a big comeback and are paying well because face it even in a dire economy, we still need plumbers, mechanics, boilermakers, carpenters, roofers, welders, pipefitterd, and such.

She didn't remember me at first, and when she did she said there was no room and I would have to wait, she didn't know how long. It sounds like a blowoff.

I'm not sure about your living situation, but in some places the eviction process can take a long time. Also, no one wants to pay to go to court. If you're dealing with a landlord or someone like that maybe you can try to reason with them. Some landlords can be real pricks though. It wouldn't hurt to look into your local laws though and see what you can do about not getting evicted or stalling the process.

I don't know what else to do, if I can't come up with the rent money in about a week, my mother and I are likely out on the street. I can't get work, any work at all, I can work hard, but can't even get the chance to prove it, and I've already sold almost everything of value. If I can't get it taken care of, please know that I love you all. From the bottom of my heart, I wish and hope that something turns up to keep you safe and supported.
