I've lived in a super 8, extended stay , intown suites, and now I am living at my close friend's home with her 2 kids out in the boondocks, so to speak.

I've worked as a waiter, a warehouse associate, a waiter, and now a nanny (yet compensated although room & food is apart of my compensation - and this is of no fault of my friend's as she has recently ran into financial issues...) in that order.

All this to avoid living on the fucking street.

I have no car and no savings. I had to pull out a small 1k l0an to help pay for my last hotel stay. And it still ended up taking my paychecks.

Just when I thought things would be better, I ran into numerous apartment companies and landlords who told me I dont make enough to qualify despite paying 2k for hotel stays monthly up until recently. From weekly paychecks, mind you.

The private landlords on Facebook marketplace who want up front cash (2k or bust) only look at my messages and leave me on read or tell me that someone has beaten me to property closing for rental of a home (listing was just posted a day ago or day of). That's after I literally harass them for a reply.

On top of that? I had to quit my waiter job. My friend had a traffic violation and got shook about getting busted so to keep her from feeling scared and possibly getting her arrested, I quit my job. They paid me bullshit compared to what I knew my worth was anyway. Couldn't risk my friend getting booked either. She has kids. She works closer to her home than me.

Did I mention she is secretly in violation of her lease bc im there?

It feels like I'm trapped.

On top of all that, my own mom won't help me. Plus, my friend has such bad credit even though she thinks she'd be able to cosign with me on an apartment.... like bruh.... cmon...

On top of all of THAT, my storage unit is due this week. And my cell bill is due on the 20th.

And my bill of repayment to a friend (first ever l0an).

And the bill for my other l0an that I pulled out (2nd l0an)

I did not do anything to put myself in this predicament. No woman is pregnant. I have committed no crime. No immorality other than spam watching porn lmao. No ill malice toward friends. Nothing. I am a hard working man. I'm 25. Black.

Life isn't fair, I know. Save the lecture and the sermon.

I just want a place I can call my own. A studio. A one bed. Something of mine I have nothing to show for myself of major significance except debt, a couple of new jackets, a new suitcase, and more lore.

Fuck can I do?

She loves it. Pays good money. Its a Mexican restaurant. She works so hard. Is disrespected & touched & harassed by the men coworkers. They're a Mexican diner but ppl say they're legal (apparently)... I dont wanna do anything permanent like ICE em out but would sending letter about threatening to ICE them help? Because wtf why are yall doing this to these women? Bitchass people

Please help me. I've modified my paystubs to read exactly how i want, but i need them to look like my real authentic stubs with my ADP logo and everything. Is there a hack to make the AI do what i want without the fuckin lecture ("Im sorry, but i cant generate fake paystubs blah blah.") and get straight to what i fkn need?

please?

for reference, im using claude and google gemini.

I was a waiter at a popular food chain. Now I'm looking to make my money off sales...

Can't seem to escape the service industry 😕 lmao!

Please? Somewhere close to public transport. Month to month at the very least would be fantastic! I'm 25 and Male and have NO RECORD AND NO PETS AND PAY BILLS ALL ON TIME!

Anything and everything helps. Looking to move asap!

Not knocking what the Lord has done for me but it's genuinely FUCK waffle house respectfully. WAHO has paid my bills, and now I'm over it. Yes, I came back after getting terminated from my other job simply because I needed to get hired ASAP.

But now I'm looking forward to working for fedex. I wanna try and keep this job for a good minute. Within under a year ive had 3 jobs lmao. I need to start working on my side hustle.

That said, they've just opened up evening start blocks. The past few times I attempted an application, it was early morning or at other hours i couldn't do.

Im only 25 and FUCK NO is this what I want to do with my life. I have passion for the arts. But the arts dont make me money yet.

Anyway, just wanting to know what to expect. It's looking like I'll be part time here, but its okay because it'll be the highest paying part time job since my college years.

No, not approved yet. But confident I will be.

Thanks.

thank you all. good night

please... been living in hotels and barely able to save up. i have full time job but no year long employment history and according to standard mortgage rental companies i make too little to comfortably pay monthly rent (absolutely false in every sense of the word...), and i make too much for standard income based housing as a single adult. FUCK!

i pay all my bills on time and im a hard ass worker. hotel living eats up all my checks and no i dont have anyone with space for me to stay for a while in the city... i in fact CAN afford monthly rent from 500-800 a month despite what the companies say!

three or four times the rent is not only ridiculous but genuinely a fkn dumbass requirement when the ppl sitting in the office probably dont even make half of that!!!! WHY?

im 25 and male and have no pets and can use a nice 1 to 2 bed house or apartment. I take the bus and only have a cell bill!!!

I can present my recent check, although i did lose my job for circumstances not in my control AT ALL! I AM CURRENTLY EMPLOYED AND CLOSING FOR A SECOND JOB!

Im tired man. I just wanna live in a HALF-decent home at this point. I can handle the other half as the months go by. I dont throw parties, and have less than a handful of ppl who would be around the premises. Im extremely clean and quiet.

Katherine allowed abuse. Joe abused them all, especially Michael. And only black people will argue passionately that "if it weren't for" -- FOOL Michael never had a childhood. Never. Fuck greatness. Fuck talent.

Gain the world but lose your soul....

No respect for them at all! Nobody's perfect but why are we always saving space for obvious bullshit people when proof has been delivered? RKelly, Diddy, etc.

And then the whole family is benefiting off of Michael.... still forcing him to sing and dance all from the grave through memory in the form of his own nephew.

Bitchass parents! Janet the only one with a fuckin brain & soul for not being this cash trap movie.
