Hello, I don’t feel comfortable with giving out my name, so I hope you can be understanding about this.
I have had trouble finding work. I am a success-driven person who works hard to be an asset in everything I am a part of and apply my skills to every situation I come across. I’m trying to level up in the work I’ve been doing over the years, so I’ve taken the time to learn different programs in the Microsoft and Google Suites, and a bit of QuickBooks as well. I am trying to find a stable job, but know I am underprepared.
I currently can not afford any clothes or makeup to help out with the interview process. I’ve also been volunteering at my local hospital as much as I can for positive references and networking opportunities as much as I could amidst the COVID situation, but I was only able to go twice.
I am currently housed with a narcissistic mother, and her abusive boyfriend. They have constantly attacked my self worth and have stolen money and resources from me for years when I did not know any better and wasn’t focused on myself but on their well-being. I’ve given a lot to them because I felt good being able to help my family. However, I haven’t gotten the same kind of attention in return and have accepted that I’m going to have to do things completely on my own. It finally bit me in the ass and they are planning on leaving to another state without any consideration for my stability. I’ve learned and accepted that I do not matter to them unless I’m paying for something.
The longest I’ve had a job for was 3 months, and the last job I did have, they fired me after 3 days without any notification and misrepresented facts on the “release slip” thing, so I lost a bit of confidence in finding work since then. However, despite my little work experience I’ve been able to get interviews, but I’m having trouble with interviewing well enough to get hired. Knowing this, my mother went ahead with her plans to live with her boyfriend anyway and even suggested I live with my father, who is a known abuser and has harmed every member of my immediate family at least once.
I need work to be able to pay for my car insurance to go to interviews, and money to take care of my dog because everyone else in my household cannot be left to take care of her because she will end up dead and I don’t know anyone here in my town and am trying to avoid putting myself at risk. I can do without a phone because I can use some WiFi calling apps to hold me over. My car insurance costs 160 dollars, it costs 35 dollars to feed my dog per month, and I need a dog nail clipper which runs at about 20 dollars.
I don’t know how long it’ll be before I can find someone safe to live, but I hope for 3 to 4 months of expenses before I can find someone to live with because the lease to my current home ends 3 months from today. I’ve been donating plasma for years now and currently have an “infiltration” and have bruises near the injection site from my latest visit so I can’t go as quickly as I normally would go.
If you could help me out with interview clothes, my dog, or car insurance, my cashapp is $ninepents. Advice or potential networking is great too. Thanks.
