Not sure you're on the right board........ Sorry to hear about your tough times...... Only thing I can say is there are always places hiring night shifts, and pawn shops always buy used shit and old jewlery........

Best of luck sir........

Help doesnt come if you dont ask for it. I dont really have anything of value, and I need the money soon. Ive been looking for a job, but refuse to work fastfood. I have a family to support. Dont want to get stuck in a minimum wage job. Even been leaning to the not so legal side
what forum should this be in?
sweetie this is the right forum.....we are just asshats here and you should expect with a post like that to bring out the asshats

on a real not.....JaD is right, pawn shops, get multiply jobs, mow yards, DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO.....and dont let your pride stand in the way

Pride cometh before the fall....yea i know i spelt that wrong....im gettn my dranck on

Go pimp yourself out as a high dollar male escort. You'll get it real quick from someone, most likely a dude, but hey there's your $1,000.

As well as your availability, I have some skills, connections, and a bunch of similar situations I have been through previously, and always preparing for my next one.
FYI, I get a paycheck biweekly, this truly is my hobby. And I am not a girly girl in reality, quite the opposite, I was A Inventory Manager For the Assets or Offshore Warehouse for a ROV company most recently, and a medic as well. And I like to help when I can who I can, Pay It Forward, and count my Blessings.
Open offer.
Best of luck to you, take what you can get legit before contemplating breaking the law. You can't take care of your family's finances behind bars and desperation doesn't allow for good judgment.
there are a wealth of resources for folks in your situation, that will make the rent, & electric payment.. one time, and there is red tape, but you just have all your documents and it is just time consuming, but feasible, and that cn get you some time to search for work.
Last call, PM me. And should you decide to get in where you fit in, and hustle, PM me.
best, you have a pm
facepalm....

hell, have a garage sale. if it's been a while since you've had one and you've got some things you can feasibly part with, you can easily make $1k.

otherwise, get on unemployment. cancel the cable and any other superfluous services/expenses. downgrade your cell phone plan. call credit card, phone, utility companies, etc. and explain your situation-- for the most part they will be understanding and will work with you.

live like a minimalist!

good luck to you & i hope you get back on your feet soon. depending on your skill set, you might consider temping. most positions i used to take a few years ago paid as high as $18/hr.

Get your life in order. This will always be here.
