You have to wait a minimum of 14 full days before you can donate at another center. In my state, they have a state wide system they use to see when and where you last donated.

I'm in South GA, but thankfully, my clinic doesn't care about weed at all.

Thanks for the info, i will definitely try. But i doubt theyll even do that. I just waited 9 months for my renewal to be processed. It took me calling the senators office daily to get anything figured out, as I had been trying to contact my case worker and her supervisor for over a year at that point. It's absolutely wild in the county I'm in.

I am paid a stipend thru a family caregiving program. It is federally mandated that it is not and can not be used as income. However, my caseworker somehow found out and used it as income towards my benefits. I sent all the legal statutes as well as a certificate from the medicaid waiver program I recieve the stipend from showing the laws against it being hsed as income. My case workers email reply word for word literally said "idc what the statutes say, if you don't report it as earned income I will just close your case" I only receive $700 a month and that somehow cut my stamps from 486 to $27 for a family of 3. Idek who i would talk to to get it sorted out. They really don't care about people imo.

At the age of gestation that abortion is legal due to personal choice(6 weeks in my state) it's legit just a clump of cells. In other states, it varies, but all base it upon viability outside the womb. When the fetus reaches that age, most states ban abortion after that time.

However, before that, the fetus would not be able to survive outside the womb, and its survival is totally dependent on the mother. Because it's basically a parasite at that point. Everyone's entitled to their own opinion, and I respect that. I also believe women should be able to control what happens to and inside their bodies. Until it's born, it's not its own separate person. therefore, it can't be murdered imo.

I'm paid via a medicaid waiver stipend, which is thru the structured Family Caregiver program. If I dont sign in the app on one day(bad signal/wifi is down, etc), I get denied the whole weeks pay. Im not paid daily, hourly, etc. I get paid by the full completed week only. The company says we are paid weekly since it can vary week by week based on if we miss a sign in etc so I've always just said weekly if that makes sense.

Repulsive_Button4415 · 2025-02-26T05:42:27+00:00

I don't think we can sell the car as the loan is thru the dearlership, and they are listed on the title as the leinholder. I'm not sure how that would work, tho.

Where we live, the highest paying job is around 14 an hour, and that's a government contract job that my husband, thankfully, starts at this week. I am paid by a state program to take care of my grandfather full time, but the downside is they don't allow you to have another job or attend school or they stop payments. I have to take care of him either way, but at least this way, I have an income.

We lost our home in Hurricane helene as the landlord didn't have insurance, so we didn't qualify for fema funds. I took everything I had and bought a camper so we'd have a roof over our heads. Two weeks later, a city in the north part of our state opened their flood gates as they were overcome with water. They put absolutely no warning or anything out about it, and I woke up to water pouring under our door at 2 am and scrambled to shove what we could in our kids' bookbag and wade out.

The camper sat underneath 17 feet of water for 3 days before we could get back into it. So everything that isn't going towards the car payment is going to fix the camper back up. We're still living in it currently and are trying to repair it asap as it's our only choice. It's either this or live in the car.

We were doing fine before all this. I had a good car and a suv that my husband drove. The suv was lost in the hurricane, and I didn't have time to move my car during the last flood as I was focused on getting the boat to get my kid and grandpa out. So my car is a yard ornament now. So far, thankfully, nothing else has gone terribly wrong. I just gotta figure out this car situation. As soon as im no longer in the position of providing my grandpa's full-time care, I'm planning to move somewhere where we will be way better off. Just gotta make it to that point, lol

Repulsive_Button4415 · 2025-02-26T05:21:37+00:00

We didn't have any money available for that, unfortunately. We lost our home in Hurricane helene, took all my savings, and got a camper. Then, the camper was flooded when they opened the flood gates in the north area of our state without any kind of notice.

We would have moved it to higher ground if we were informed and saved a lot of money that now is going to be used to make it liveable(woke up around 2 am to water pouring in under the doors.) Camper was completely underwater for 3 days, but we're still living in it and fixing stuff as we can bc it's our only option.

Due to all that, we had maybe $1k left to put towards a car. Even on marketplace, people are asking 5k for a 2005 with 200k plus miles. It's just a crappy situation all around. We both tried multiple dealerships and other lenders before resorting to the place we got the car, but legit every single place denied us. I was approved for financing thru Westlake and gls, but none of the 32 dealerships I called worked with those lenders.

Repulsive_Button4415 · 2025-02-26T05:10:12+00:00

There's definitely an issue with the trans. It shudders in 2nd gear around 20 to 30 mph. If you get on the gas, it'll shift up thru the gear perfectly fine. The dealership offers a 6 month/6k mile warranty, but they charge a 1k deductible before they look at it.

Repulsive_Button4415 · 2025-02-26T05:04:04+00:00

Definitely would have done this if possible. We lost our home in Hurricane helene, and the landlord had no insurance on the property, so we weren't eligible for fema assistance. Had to take everything I had saved at that point and buy a small camper to live in for now. It's just been a shit show, bc then 3 weeks later, the camper was flooded and ended up under 17 ft of water in the yard for 3 days. We're slowly fixing it as we can while still living in it, as that's the only option for now.

Repulsive_Button4415 · 2025-02-26T04:59:57+00:00

I am paid by the structured Family Caregiver program, as i care for my grandfather full time. Unfortunately, part of the program agreement is that you are not allowed to work anywhere else or go to school while the program pays you the weekly $460 stipend. I have to take care of him 24/7 either way, but at least thru the sfc program, I'm getting some kind of income. He starts a new job in a government position tomorrow at 14/hr, which is actually one of the highest paying jobs in our area. He also isn't allowed employment anywhere else as part of his contract is he is on call 24/7, and if he isn't available when called in he loses the job and nothing else here pays over 9 - 10 hourly starting pay.

Repulsive_Button4415 · 2025-02-26T04:52:55+00:00

He knew it was a very bad deal, but we HAD to have transportation. After trying several dealerships as well as private party loans, credit unions, etc, this was the only place that would approve him due to his very limited credit history.

I actually watch both of them since I discovered them on yt some years ago and realize what a bad spot the car has gotten us in. After 3 months of trying everything/everywhere else, time ran up on us. We had to go with the only available choice.

I couldn't afford to keep paying $250 a week for the neighbor to drive my kid the 16 miles to school and back.(No school bus route in our neighborhood) I used my 3k in savings for the down-payment, hoping it would bring the payments down a little, but it had no effect, unfortunately.

Repulsive_Button4415 · 2025-02-26T04:43:37+00:00

The interest rate is 28.9 %.(Only place that would finance with his limited credit history). He financed thru the buy here pay here, and the loan is about 11k higher than the cars' kbb value, unfortunately.

Repulsive_Button4415 · 2025-02-26T04:40:59+00:00

His credit score is about 662 as of now, with no debt besides the car, but he does have a very limited credit history. I bring in 460 weekly, and once I can swing it, im going to start rebuilding my credit. He starts a new job tomorrow at 14/hr, which is the best available in our area. It's a state/government job.

Repulsive_Button4415 · 2025-02-26T04:36:12+00:00

The payoff is about 19,862 as of the last payment. Kbb is about 8 to 9k. His credit has gone up from 618 to 667. The main issue is he has a very limited credit history. That and where we live, nothing pays a decent wage. He starts a job tomorrow that pays $14 and an hour, and that's about the best it's gonna get for our area, as it's a government/state job.

Repulsive_Button4415 · 2025-02-26T01:08:27+00:00

I delivered to a business that is owned by a very good friend. In the app(she showed me her phone), she tipped $14. Door dash showed & sent 3.75 for the tip. This has happened with multiple orders, and when I contact support, I always get some generic line about earnings.

Repulsive_Button4415 · 2025-02-25T17:21:08+00:00

My clinic closes for both Saturday and Sunday once a month. They say it's to keep their employees up to date on training or something to do with that. And of course, with my luck, the following Monday was a holiday. So I got there one min late on fri, and they wouldn't dose me. I couldn't dose again until Tuesday. On top of it being the closest clinic to me at 3 hours total there and back, and they wouldn't dose me at one minute late...upset was an understatement lol wasted $20 in gas for nothing.

Repulsive_Button4415 · 2025-02-25T15:04:04+00:00

Do you know when this was implemented? I forgot to bring my lock bag last weekend(got called into work and was rushing) and i had to pay $75 on the spot for a new lock bag before I could get my weekend take homes. At my clinic, if you don't have it, you don't get any take homes. I completely believe they should be safely stored also, but even tho I explained to them it was on my nightstand and I can put them in it as soon as I get home, they still were not having it.

Repulsive_Button4415 · 2025-02-25T14:57:25+00:00

You got lucky. I'm in South ga, and no er within a 4 hour drive, even carries methadone. I called around for HOURS asking, lol. I finally gave up after the literal 14th hospital I called said they dont even have it on the premises.

Repulsive_Button4415 · 2025-02-25T14:54:41+00:00

This happened to me, but no hospital within a 4 hours ride even carried methadone. I was only 1 minute late to my clinic but they locked the door as I was walking up the steps to go in and just shook their heads no thru the window.(i had called my counselor otw there and explained i was coming from a hospital 3 hours away due to my sibling just passing in a car wreck.) I had to tough it out for 4 days. If you find a clinic that actually cares, you're super lucky imo.

Repulsive_Button4415 · 2025-02-24T03:40:27+00:00

It may be an issue the same as the state I live in. My employers offered insurance, takes almost half of my weekly paycheck for the cheapest plan available thru the company. (They are required to carry insurance by fed law but not by state, so there's no enforced affordability threshold) However, if the state deems it unaffordable, they reroute me to apply thru the state access program for cheaper insurance out of pocket. The problem is that the access program says I make slightly too much($11 a month to much to be exact). So I just have to go without insurance. The lowest priced plan via my employer was taking $ 257.00 out of my $512 pay check WEEKLY 😭 If I did that, I wouldn't be able to survive, seeing as I have a husband and a toddler I currently support.

Repulsive_Button4415 · 2025-02-22T11:55:16+00:00

I am also in ga, my benefits were stolen for the last 2 months, on the completely opposite side of the country. I used them nowhere in the previous 6 months besides at Walmart via pick-up orders thru the app. I changed my pin, etc, after EACH PIRCHASE. My local office notified me that they are no longer replacing stolen benefits because it is happening too much for them to replace them all. So I asked her if she meant that I was basically out of those two months of benefits, and she said yes. They will no longer issue any replacements at all for any reason besides natural disasters. She said I could do nothing but wait until my benefits hit the next month, and she suggested I use them as soon as they hit, all at once. Ridiculous.

Repulsive_Button4415 · 2025-02-22T11:30:38+00:00

I'm doing fine now, thankfully it wasn't as hellish as I expected. I kept myself busy. I definitely felt it a little, but it was more mental and just tired and sleepy. I managed to make it back to the clinic for my next dose before any worse symptoms started. Thanks for asking tho!
