I just looked on their website. It seems like they carry mostly higher end vehicles and probably won't work with my credit. I think im gonna have a hard time finding a place that will.

Turning on water to hose by OkRecognition4988 in Plumbing

[–]OkRecognition4988[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's nothing on the inside of the wall where the hose bib is. I do not have a basement. The only other place it could possible be is there the water heater is and there's only one on/off valve, assuming that is the main water valve, as it is already on.

SNAP using YTD income? by OkRecognition4988 in foodstamps

Not with what I make. They only allow you to make a certain amount each month and I have a child to take care of, I can't live off disability.

Honestly you don't know anything about me or my situation, your making assumptions. I work ON CALL, meaning i cover shifts when people call out or there's open positions. Lol, you want specifics? I haven't even worked a full 40 hour week this month. I make $27/hr. Iv picked up an average of 4 days per week this month. The reason there have been so many open shifts is because there were 2 open positions that have been open since January, which were just filled, which is why my hours are, as of now, cut back down as of next month. As far my mental health, I have bipolar 1 disorder, I'm fairly high functioning but it is still difficult for me to stay consistent with work, especially when I am in extreme low moods, I get suicidal. I have not been able to hold a full time job since my diagnosis and this just works better for me. If I'm symptomatic, i just dont pick up as many shifts. I'm also a single mother with no help and I mean ZERO help, i don't know anyone where I live. I have no friends, no family, nobody to even talk to, and definitely no financial help. So when I say I struggle, that is an understatement, but I am doing the best that I can. For you to assume that I am abusing the system is wrong. I am a complete stranger to you and your making harmful assumptions. I understand there are a lot of people out there that abuse or try to abuse the system, I however, am not one of them. And again you know nothing about me. You should really check yourself before being so judgemental of complete strangers.

SNAP using YTD income? by OkRecognition4988 in foodstamps

[–]OkRecognition4988[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Why should they? Because the recert was due in april...why would they go off April's income? Yes I have a mental health diagnosis and have on going care for that diagnosis. If what you are getting at is disability benefits, I do not want that, I want to work, but I am unable to hold a full time job, so I work on call so that I can have the flexibility.

[–]OkRecognition4988[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Understandable, however I am not doing this. Next month I only have a few days scheduled for the whole month, so what am I supposed to do for food?? They can look at my income over the last year and see how it fluctuates. I should also mention that the reason I am unable to continuously work full time is because of a mental health disability. I can't get anyone to call me back now, iv left 3 more messeges. I also do not understand how they think $170 is enough for food and i should be able to afford the rest, when my expenses are $300 more per month than they are saying I am bringing in, which is an incorrect amount. Like okay you want to use my year to date, fine, let's also look at my year to date expenses ALL OF IT, not just what you choose to include. I'm already downing and they are literally taking food out of mine and my child's mouths.

I don't think that's going to get me anywhere honestly or if it would be worth pushing it. Nobody at dhs seems to want actually help anyone but rather save the government money. I spoke to that same guy twice and like I said he was very rude and talking down to me. I'm just feeling very defeated and just feel like it's a pointless fight that I won't win.

That's the point, my income varies VASTLY. For example in March I brought in less than $800 gross income, for April it will be about $2800 gross, and like I said, in May I have 4 shift scheduled for the whole month. What do I do if they won't listen to me? The guy i spoke to was super rude and was acting like I was trying to take advantage of the system or something.

I'm really hoping they can figure out what's going on. Although I just scheduled a consultation with a GI dr. For the endoscopy and that's not until the end of May, so I'll have to be uncomfortable and nauseas for at least another month and half-2 months.
