Currently I am only able to work 32 hours a week due to doctor appointments, dentist est... And I am looking for a better job, the only reason I keep this job cause its flexible with daycare and more stable than the ones i have been in where I made more money but they'd not get the concept when a child is sick, I have to leave and get them from daycare. On top of that, I work on a computer, I'm one of those people that work in call centers and handle all the so called "educated" peoples financial information and the person that people call for billing and technical matters when they can't figure out their internet and computer issues. And yes.. my story makes no sense. I agree, but thats exactly how it is running. I'm atleast trying to work and get back off the system. There''s many people out there that intentionally don't work and live off it for years (I have no idea how they do it) . I'm just in a hard time right now, I'm not a lifer on housing or that crud. Isn't the service suppose to help people get back on their feet instead of keeping them on the system? I've noticed majority of the social workers really don't care about the people, they just care about keeping the statistics low and what looks good on paper. So misscalculating runs to their advantage, especially when most low income people don't take the time to look over the paperwork and are at mercy of what the social worker says. Especially when they hire a bunch of spoiled snotty college grads that have never lived in poverty in their own lifetime.

Why not try to get off the system and get a better job. You stated "a payment of $317 I'd get stuck paying", how do you figure you got STUCK. Who do you think gets STUCK paying the rest of YOUR rent? That would be us tax payers. And you must not be working many hours a month if you only make $600. Try getting another job or even a second job so we arent STUCK with YOUR responsibilities.

As an individual who is educated in the field of Social Work this story does not ad up. You state you and your children have to live in a shed but you have access to a computer - Did you go to the local library to post this or do you own a computer with internet access? If so - get rid of the computer, turn off you intenet access and stop sponging off goverment assistance ie: my tax dollars Stacey
