Hi it’s Shnookie. I’m usually trying trying to be earth mother in this support group giving tips and resources and always sending hugs. But late at night in L.A., I feel yuck 🤢 I was on disability from 11/2019
til 11/2020. I knew that I needed a job and the dept of Rehab connected to Disability
had a job counselor who offered me a 15 hour a week job 3 days a week at L.A.
minimum wage of $15 an hour. Well unfortunately I have not worked a 3 day week since I started my job on 11/10.
My cousin helps me with $500 a month but still I’m making less now than I was on disability. I found out tonight that the executive director of the center decided it
Would be closed the entire week. Frustration is a nice way of saying how I am feeling. Not a cent from them this week. My only saving grace is that I just started a
12 hour a week companionship
Light duties caregiver job yesterday.
It will bring me a little amount of money to pay my bills but I can only pay s small part of my rent. Something got to give. I’m bein sent job leads and I’ve been procrastinating now I must do this even if feel exhausted
Things have to get. Better in 2021. Thank U from letting me vent and being so supportive of me. Wishing everyone a better better 2021. Hugs 🤗 Shnookie t
