Yeah tommie, i'll work at mcdonalds and long john silvers .....to start off....walmart as the cart bitch.....(no offense meant to anyone)...
Whereever they take applications is where im applying..but i would also like to look into benefits such as medical and stuff also...
i have thought into this S#!t.
True story, if I were to ever hit the lotto, my dream job is being a "cart bitch".
Except I am gonna be a "cart wrangler" I will work for free as long as I can wear a cowboy hat and chaps and a lasso. That would be so bomb ass. Listen to the ipod and wrangle carts. Ill wistle and say "YAH..YAH"... Yup Im that F#@&ed up.

Just a hint, guys get out of jail everyday with less than you have right now.
You'll do fine. And if you get hungry, tell a small restraunt owner that you literally will wash dishes for food. It might even land you a job and more.
Also like mudman said, construction is a great place to look for now. The decent help is hard to find.

Honestly man, you could go to a nursing home and work as a CNA. The work is hard as hell but they will certify you in about 2 weeks for free, they are desperate so you could start tomorrow and if your good you can get around 12 bucks an hour. Its a start but not a long term solution. I GUARANTEE you if you hit 3 nursing homes tomorrow you WILL leave with a job. Its not choice but it pays the bills.

That commercial is so F#@&en dumb. I hate it. They make it seem like a company can hold your credit score against you when you get a job, but they can't.

I have more than 2 cents on this.Normally I would take the parents side but this is bad parenting.So I hope I'm right in taking your side.
Quote from: starship_troopers on May 09, 2008, 09:39:01 PM
But her boyfriend on the other hand....i ended up getting my car taken back, and my HOUSE KEY taken away. so After i leave to look for new jobs tomorrow I have no house. Nowhere to stay....not even income...
This is crazy on a whole lot of levels.Take the car & a place to live; now that's really going to help you get an equal or better job.
Now if after a couple of months of you hadn't even looked for a new job & all you did was party then I might be for something like that.Not like this immediately.
Is there a reason he thinks you aren't going to look for & get another job?
Most of the time it would be the other way around.You have a job & have for a while & you are told you need to find your own place.
I think the boyfriend was just looking for an excuse to kick you out.Correct me if I'm wrong.
Quote from: starship_troopers on May 09, 2008, 09:39:01 PM
So, I tell my mom...she's cool with it, she understands, yet at the same time doesn't want me to move out...which i understand...
Now for your mom the one that should have made this decision without the boyfriend.She should kick him out or move herself depending who owns or leases the property.There could be some legal mess if they both do.If that is the case then probably all she has to do is stand up to him .I don't think there is any law that would keep her from allowing a guest to stay.I'm sure there are a lot of factors that I don't know about but from what I've read so far.Your mom needs to get her own place & let you live there at least till you get a job & find your own place if that's what needs to be done.
One more question : Where is your biological father?If that's too personal just say he's out of the picture.
& like tdawnaz said Do you have grandparents the will help?

the most asinine part of this is he's been giving a big chunk of his money to his mom to help...and especially when the bf was laid up after shoulder surgery (if i remember right) so now he doesn't need sst's money so he wants him out so he'll be free to abuse the mom in private...that's my take on this...sst can correct me if i'm wrong...but the bf is an opportunistic jerk

tdawnaz;You know a great deal more than I do about the past of this.
I think sst should remind the bf of his help with the money.He might even be able to sue & get some of it back since he was under no legal requirement to support the bf or make a "gift" of money to him.
At least on the TV court shows a lot of the time a "gift" like that becomes a loan.
Since I bet there was no verbal or written contract for sst to pay rent he's probably off the hook for that.If there was a contract then he only has to prove that amount was paid.
If there were no receipts or other proof then all are screwed to some degree.
In the end I still think mom should kick the bf to the curb.

all i know is he's a good guy and has been good to his whole family and doesn't deserve this...and that he's stronger than he thinks he is at the moment...and he'll come out on top...that's what i know

OH wow, so much has come to light. The B/F is damned lucky I was not his girlfriends son. I'd have screwed his world up like I did my stepdads. He was glad to be gone after it was over.
Did you know you can total a pickup without it even moving?
Had to leave the state for that one. But it was worth it, and he never did try to come into my life again.
