Yiz.... Glad to see you are making some progress. Dont take my last post as nagging or b*itching at you. I know you have enough problems without being judged by some fool who doesnt know the whole story... I am not judging you. I can just tell you from experience that nobody will do it for you.
I know you are trying, and I suppose I overlooked the fact that you did not grow up that way... so I guess I expect others to just "know what to do".
If you need more help dont be afraid to ask... I am not complaining about it... just answering to some that may say you are a con... and giving you something to think about.
Do keep posting, no matter what happens.... at least you have that.... the problem with your situation is that you could dissappear, and nobody would know. Not trying to scare you... just be aware. Do watch your back all the time... tell somebody... anybody.. when you go off somewhere alone... Even if it is another mission resident, or the woman in the library... Just be sure to be seen, that's all.
It isnt a pretty thing. I know. With the cold... it always helps to find a place to stash an extra coat, or blanket. (behind a paper machine, or behind the shrubs in front of a building.) I know you are staying in a mission... and I dont know much about that... but you never know when you could show up too late to get in, or just be caught out.
I hate that you missed that open interview... I assured him you would be there.. but didnt know then that you didnt have directions... thought you just needed a time. So dont waste too much time waiting on him to call you back. I would have liked to expain a little more to abe, but didnt want to ruin what chances you had. (I never told others I was homeless). Just make like youre student.
Ok ok... nuff wisdom from the king of the hobos... just let me know if I can help.. dont mind... I want to see you employed in the next seven days. We will go from there. Keep posting.
Be safe. I wish you the best.
