Anyways all of my bills are piling up and it's driving me crazy. I only have $6.00 left in my bank account. I've used all of my money to pay on my bills and it still isn't enough. I owe on 2 credit cards. the one i need $58 by the end of the month to avoid that account being closed. and at least $40 to avoid having my cell phone being shut off. I also have some unpaid medical bills from when I was in the hospital that I have to pay on. I don't have insurance so that doesn't cover it. I can't ask my parents for any help because they're suffering financially as well.

I really need a job. I can't take this stress anymore I just don't know what to do anymore.

Is selling the house an option?

Are you certain you cant live with your folks until you can find work or at someone else's house?

Dont panic, everything is going to turn out decent =]

I do live with my parents lOl. I'm only 19.

and yes I am well aware of being terminated really slams your resume. but i was fired for something that wasn't even my fault

the reason that they gave me for my termination was that a check that I had taken from a member came back non-sufficent funds for over $450 and i had done everything i was suppossed to do. match up the name on the check with the membership card and drivers liscence. we have NO WAY of telling at the registers if a check will bounce or not so it wasn't my fault at all. they just wanted to get rid of me.

What, do your parents charge you rent or something?

Why cant you just do without a phone, credit cards, and other nicethings if they pay the bills? If they demand money from you, just explain the situation to them and tell them how youll need time. Im sure theyll understand.

The very first thing you should (like right this minute) is file for unemployment.

Was the store that you were working at unionized? I don't know how long it has been since you were fired from there, but if they were union there should be a lot that you can do about it. Either way you should take a look at the stores employee policy with regards to termination. For a lot of big corporations, they need a history of employee misconduct in order to fire someone.

You should also start working on a resume, hopefully there is at least one manager from either/both jobs that liked you and would give you a decent recommendation. Figure out all the skills, and qualifications that you have acquired from both jobs, I'm sure there are TONS of skills and qualities that you have even though you may not readily know it.
