This is a little off topic, but since this is my space I’m going to utilize it. Everyone is in frenzy about budget cuts and stimulus checks. I must say as a student I didn’t think too much of it when major corporations start downsizing. At my previous company work hours decreased from forty hours a week down to thirty. At last, my prayers as a part time student and full time worker had been answered. Or so I thought until this week when they sent me a separation pay check that was pretty nice, until I lost it.
So as it is at 1:36a.m. to release my tense, stress and embarrassment I have come to two conclusions.
One, the day I decided to clear my purse out, it was thrower away, along with my college I.D. and two, I’ve been robbed. But as an optimistic, I’m praying that’s not the answer.
Ironically I get a call from the pops saying I have a check from the IRS, which was somewhat a lifesaver but still it compares nothing to my check…..urhhh. Not to mention I have to renew my license in less than five days and now im officially broke. Did I mention I’m broke, and have a birthday in six days.
Usually when these things happen there is a lesson to be learned, but as for now all I can say is thanks President Obama for the stimulus check, because otherwise I would have to starve (literally) next week.

I know exactly how you feel! I am in the same predicament. I have to put groceries on my credit card just to eat. I must have applied to over 20 positions and been turned down. At this point it's all I can do to stay sane. If I could just get a job my problems would be solved. Unfortunately, thats exactly what almost 10% of my fellow Americans are saying and most of them have more work experience than me. Doesn't it just make you want to scream?
ReplyDeleteI totally relate to this, I have a job and all but I am just a server and I'm easily replaced. Totally unsettling!!! Not to mention school loan debt is going to kick in pretty soon here!! I am so sorry about your check. can you have them cancel it and give you another one?
