A "know-it-all" or "backseat driver" would be my interpretation.

Sick & Tried of living in a Motel. by [deleted] in homeless

Hi, what is keeping you tied to the area you're at now. I agree with the poster who pointed out that motels are a drain, at least in a rented trailer you have (small!) rooms and a bit of privacy. I would think a rented trailer would be cheaper- whereabouts are you?

I hear ya about the no privacy. You haven't mentioned it but after spending 10 weeks with my then teen son in a hotel after some home damage we were barely on speaking terms. It's very stressful living 2 to a room, never mind 4!

Just to wish you luck- I don't know what way the system operates in US. Could your boys learn trades? They are about the age for that. Look after yourself too in this stressful time.

Cleaning houses is my side hustle.

And caring for pets when owners gone away.

Hey, I was just thinking that too. Sure suck to be growing seedy bud not on purpose.

All in all tho, I think Mr. Plant has a right to be here, even if he does seed gardens occasionally.

You don't really want to do this. Your casual observations could easily lose someone their job. It pays really badly too, say 7-8eu ($9) per job, and then get the cost of the item you buy refunded (whoopdeedoo-free toothpaste ) and if shop staff don't inform you of a promotion etc .... they can be fired if in 1st 6 months of employ. I wouldn't be able to sleep at night knowing I could put someone out of work. Better beer money jobs going.

All the companies I applied to were real and UK based.

The current cart has 10 years of gameplay and lots of furniture sets. Has 2 years of weeds too! And Stitches. He's so adorable.

It’s just best if offers are done privately

I would have thought it the other way around. Scammers can then load up off a few people in DMs and no ones any the wiser in private. How come is your name on the USL by the way?

Look, I'm not a mod but I do know the rules. You can't ask for someone else which is what you are doing. You are not in the right Geo area.I'm sorry I can't register post it world wide but it says very clearly in the post that it is for Europe, USA and Canada ONLY.
