Hello!
My name is Sarah aka Liz (they/them). Last year I moved back to California to be closer to my friends and my best friend’s son. I was able to get a job at a former place of work that pretty much completely abused me the entire time I was there. From October to July I had been looking for stable housing on top of working over 60 hours a week when I lost my job and housing in the span of days.
In an awful moment I lost my job and my housing and I now had to take stock of everything I had been doing. Due to my familial relations I was not able to stay with them and it has taken me till now (October) to find a stable living situation. I am still unable to qualify for unemployment, unable to pursue legal action for my situation at work, and without a car my job options have been limited. I have lost my healthcare and my mental health treatment.
I am still actively looking for a job, and even applying for things outside of my scope just in the off chance I can get *something* However, I am now in even more dire straits as my cell phone bill is about to be shut off and without my phone I cannot continue to reach out to employers.
I am unable to take out a loan or a credit card as this is only the cherry on top of a slew of many financial emergencies – my car had broken down, I was robbed, and then my car was stolen shortly before I made it back to California (it sounds fake but I have the police reports).
In a fit of desperation I have begun to sell my belongings as my cell phone bill is more important than the little possessions that I have left. While I do not want to continue to sell the last of my clothes (as that is all I really have left right now) it’s my last option as I am drowning for any help.
I understand that it’s been a rough couple of years for a lot of people and I pray I can pick myself back up to be able to return the favor.
I currently need $240 to stop Verizon from shutting off my service with a total of $802 due by the end of the month to be fully caught up. Any help at all is greatly appreciated.
