Living in My car In a Church Parking Lot...

RE: Living in My car In a Church Parking Lot...
(July 6, 2014 at 10:22 pm)Thumpalumpacus Wrote: I don't know whether the OP is for real or not, but I know this: I had my career path as a district manager for a Fortune 100 energy company cut short by the 08 recession; they sold my stores into franchise and zip-bam was I ever jobless. And in the SoCal market at the time, there were no companies trying to hire store managers, let alone area/district managers. Long story short, I kept my ass looking for work, and in the meantime volunteered at a local food bank, figuring that if I needed to be a future customer, I might as well start my sweat-equity ASAP Smile.

Long story a little longer, it didn't work for me, I got some help from family and friends, couch-surfed for about a year, and in that time saved up enough from recycling / busking guitar on the streets / selling possessions (they were in my ex's garage) etc to get back home to Texas, where I found work pretty quickly and soon was working three jobs and sixty-five hours a week. I'm down to two and fifty-eight now Smile.

The point is, if the OP is truly in her dire straits, she need not suffer alone; there are agencies and organizations available to help.

Ami, if you need help fine-tuning her interview issues, she can PM me. Having conducted thousands of job interviews over the course of sixteen years in business, I've got a pretty good line on the ins and outs of that. I don't have any money to give, but I'm sure I can help you get around the homeless and autism issues that seem to be derailing your efforts.
I did get to make this video last night after borrowing a phone with video capabilities. She sent it to me and I got it this morning and uploaded it. I really, unfortunately do live in my car and I am in this situation. Sad I have not found any way to fix my financial aid other than paying student loans to re-qualify. I just want to go back to school. I have food SNAP benefits. I can live in my car. I just want to go back to school.
