and I think I know of a place where you could get some work. Go to your phone book and look up PRG Staffing agency. Yes its a temp service but right now there are companies looking for work (especially my company) because of the holiday rush and 99.9% of the temp workers that come to my job get hired permanently , just work hard. I know you might not want to do that but what are your other options . Anything is better than nothing. I have been where you are - but I know my pain was minor because I don't have kids. And go to the Employment Security Commission - the Post Office is also hiring this time of the year. Take it from me , you have to have hope. If you would have told me exactly 2 years ago that I would be where I am now, I would not have believed it. I never gave up because I knew that I was smart and that if someone gave me the opportunity I would run with it and show them how good CarolinaPeridot really is. And I know that you are a dancer but maybe its time to try something else that is bringing in more money. You have a little one to feed. And if you have to go to McDonald's for now go - and the new Walmart in town - they are hiring , all of them are. The Wal-Mart hiring center is on Battleground Ave. Seek and you shall find :hug:
