I know this is probably off-topic, but it's worth a shot. I've previously alluded to my deteriorating personal situation. Yesterday evening, I discovered that the person who is the head of household (renting it from someone else) is going to try to evict me on Dec. 1st...a full month ahead of when I thought I would have to deal with the issue. Not only are they going to try to evict me, they're going to attempt to accept my rent $ and *then* kick me out.
-I've been here for 5 months
-I pay rent in $, $360 per month
-I do not have a contract
I'm extremely frightened, for obvious reasons. Homelessness is not something I could handle. Being transgender and physically frail, if I become homeless, the chance of being assaulted/raped/etc. is pretty high. I have no knowledge of how to survive in that sort of situation.
Considering that, I'm rapidly planning the next few days so that I may, namely:
-apply for several hundred jobs in less than a week
-apply for governmental job placement services
-apply for food stamps
-try to find a cheap room to stay in (biggest issue after finding a job)
-try to find a place to stash my computer/books, if I don't have a roof over my head for a few days or weeks
-organize all of my belongings so that I know exactly what I have, and how much space it takes
-be extremely strict with my habits so that I can carry out these things
With regards to employment, I have never had a job before. I have an Honors GED (yay -_-).
So, any constructive advice is good advice. You can ask pretty much any question and I will answer it, because of the circumstances.
If you know someone near Seattle who would let me stay in a room for a little while, up to a month or two, that would be very helpful as well. I'm extremely introverted (quiet), and am very considerate of others. I'm also a decent conversationalist if the topic is intellectual in nature. All that is really necessary short term is a room with a bed, enough space for clothes and grooming products, the room hopefully warmer than outside, access to a refrigerator so that I can put a few items that I purchase into it, and access to a shower and sink. I have very little money but I'd try to contribute what I could, especially after I am hired somewhere.
