$34 to my name. Stranded as my car broke down and I can’t afford a mechanic. I’m crushed.
I’m(25f) crying. I’m so done. done. It’s been hell of a year. Found out my ex bff of 25 years had an affair with my now ex husband. Got a divorce. Been trying to get out of 10k debt for 1 year now. It’s almost paid off but I can successfully say I’m in the rat race. I’m trying to build my career in cybersecurity.
I have an awesome internship , and it pays 20$ and hour. I’ve been trying to pay off my debt to get certified and back to school. But when I get paid it goes to my credit card. My credit card is low limit due to my score. I then use my card for living expenses (gas and food mainly). My cards are maxed out. I get paid tomorrow but my pay is under 1k I’ve been applying non stop and just rejected or told the position got filled. I lose my health insurance in 3 weeks.
I had a doct apt in the city. Used money I had for
train tix and packed my lunch. Well I get back and my car won’t start (it’s the starter). I called my mom and my brother. My brother immediately says I should of gone to a mechanic. I explained I had no money to. Not even on my cc. I call my mom and she is annoyed and vents how this ruins her evening and just wants to sleep she asked for info and said is making call for insurance. All the sudden she gets ramped up and says “I JUST HAVE TO GO. IM TIRED . All I WANT TO DO IS SLEEP!” And I haven’t heard back. So I used the $34 to get Chinese since I barely ate. All my mom says “you have to get a better paying job!” and my brother says he has adult hockey practice with his friends.
I’m just hurt. I’m in tears. When will my hard work pay off? It doesn’t help my ex bff rubs in she makes so much money
I’m just done. All I want is to make money to live.
Update:
My mom called and said she had to pay for AAA. They are coming to try to start it and tow it. She telling me how much she had to pay. She coming too. I’m just upset at how she threw her baggage at me , including my brother.
For those asking about internship; I’m studying cybersecurity. Every time I reach out about my application, they tell me it’s been filled internally (and the job posting is still posted UHg!)
