My only experience of being homeless was when two girls and I ran away from home at 15 years old. We made it twelve hours away before the car started having serious issues. We stayed in a hotel parking lot living on day old donuts, free breakfast from multiple hotels where we pretended like we were actual guests and hotel shampoo mini bottles.
I was hired at McDonald's after two days. One of the other girls ended up getting hired by the 5th day at another McDonald's and the last girl was hired at Taco Bell a couple days after that. I guess the only difference was that we didn't consider ourselves homeless and three jobs was going to get our car fixed up and eventually we'd make it to California.
Maybe we got lucky or maybe it was the 90's, but we did pretty well for ourselves for being teenagers on the streets of Dallas.
