Ah. Well, I hate my job and I'm still recovering from the holiday weekend (I'm an extreme introvert with a large family), so it's hard to stay motivated and focused.

well do be careful, most businesses have to start tightening their belts come january

you are welcome ^^

Nah. The place I work for isn't so bad as all that. So long as I look busy and get the main cleaning done, mu boss doesn't even notice.

wow, that is kinda crazy. of course what do i know? XD i am one of those awful unemployed peeps

I'm a custodian for a non-profit so my hours are shit, the job sucks, and the pay is barely worth it.
But if I were jobless, I'd be homeless so it's slightly better than that. And my job is fairly flexible with my work shift so long as, unless it's approved by my "supervisor", I don't exceed 20 hours per week.
But hopefully soon I will find a better job. XP
One where I'm not steadily sinking deeper into debt buy buying cat food and groceries.
Ugh...sorry for the kind of ranty stuff...

dude, this is totally a safe place for ranting

*nuzzles Kad*
Rants are fun to listen to!

I'm just full of a lot of frustration right now. The holidays cost more money than I had anticipated and I wasn't gifted any useful money, so I am stressing over debt that I need to not worry so much about probably.
XP
And I don't have a car, which makes getting to the bank to deposit my paycheck before my rent is due a pain.

Ugh, that sucks... *snuggles*
Online banking/cheque deposit? I know some banks offer that nowadays..?

Nope. Mine is a local credit union so they don't have that. It's normally not a problem, but it's too snowy and icy for me to ride my bike. But if I can remember, I can walk down at take care of the check deposit before work tomorrow.
Won't help my debt any, but at least I'll keep my apartment for another month.

Woo, yay for keeping the appartment!

At this point, that's the important part. And I plan to figure out a time, soon, to get over and apply for foodstamps, which should help a lot too. And if I can find the nearest food bank, maybe I can get some stuff there soon.

sorry, i got lost XD i found my way back though!

jeez, that sounds like a lot of issue for almost no return. why doesn't your credit union have direct deposit? my mom has one and it lets her do that

Because I live in Montana and we're.like 5 years behind everyone im progress They just haven't gotten there yet. Until a few years ago, the one I bank at was pretty small, so I guess they didn't feel the need to be so high-tech?

XD i've only read about off-handed comments alluding to montana. it's a big plains with nothing but sun and grass except for the smattering of cows and mountains of course XD

I get to watch Lights Out with the fam tonight... Anybody watched it? Is it good?
