I was just laid off "due to budget cuts" and now I can't afford my rent - General

So I walked into work today... all dressed up and in uniform as a security guard in the Down Town Silver Spring outside mall in Maryland. I worked there for about 3 months feeling very good about this job. It was laid back, relaxed and we could work at our own pace. Even the supervisors were really chill. Almost every morning, the assistant head supervisor and I would always talk about video games and other awesome stuff, while the girl in the office and I always talked during my lunch break (she was pretty cute). But back to today. I walk in today and the vice president was there, which is odd because he normally works in Chicago. The vice president informed the supervisor that due to budget cuts, they would have to fire some people, and myself being the newest (along with my roommate) we were both fired. It felt awful. I gave NEVER been fired or laid off a job in my life because I have always been a valued employee. I usually end up quitting a job due to the lack of professionalism and intercommunication which makes the work environment impossible. Now, I should cut to the chase. I absolutely HATE doing this, but right now as it stands, I don't have many choices until I find a new job. I am so low on money (I about 200USD in my account for the rest of the month, which has to cover food and gas) and no money toward my rent (which is 735USD). I have nothing really to sell and I have been looking like crazy for a new job even while I was working security. Don't think I am some stupid jerk that is just begging for money for a new computer or some stupid shit, because I'm not. Remember when I gave my last bit of money to that one guy before Christmas only to find out it was a scam? Yeah, I know how that feels. I am asking for some donations. Just a bit. No Steam games or anything because those unfortunately don't help for food and rent. I will try to thank everyone personally for their kindness, but right now I have to focus harder on finding a new job. I never thought it would come to this, sigh. My paypal is -removed- (This is actually my real paypal linked to my real name. This is the only way I can show that I am being truthful.) Thank you so much facepunch. Another thing, if [B]ANYONE[/B] in the Washington DC area on Facepunch knows of any steady full-time job openings where they work, I will shoot over my resume as soon as possible. [B]EDIT:[/B] I just heard that asking for donations on FB is an instant perma... I did not know that rule, and unfortunately I can't exactly delete this thread. I just hope that the mods have some heart in my situation and my past generosity and don't perma me. I would like to make a wall of who donated, but it's hard to keep track of the names that donated. If you donated to me, PM me with your name so I can match up the aliases with donations and send you a personalized thank you message.

People don't really donate since that guy scammed everyone out of their money during Christmas to buy a computer. Sorry. Edit: Oh, you were one of them.

If this isn't real we are so going full Sherlock on you.

They shouldn't be able to fire you without a warning.

[QUOTE=Da_Maniac_;28107884]They shouldn't be able to fire you without a warning.[/QUOTE] Not if it was within 3 months.

Yeah your not gonna donations, plenty of people are in your same situation, and asking for donations on facepunch won't help you since your more than likely are just trying to rip people off like the "last guy."

That's terrible. I'll see if I have any money to donate.

Bum off your parents, until you got your shit back together. That's what everyone else on FP would do.

I was one of the people that got ripped off from the last fucker. In fact, there is still this thread: [url]http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1049494-There-are-actually-nice-people-on-Facepunch[/url] In this thread people were practically handing me money and I was refusing.

[QUOTE=Sobotnik;28107874]If this isn't real we are so going full Sherlock on you.[/QUOTE] Well judging how my paypal account links to my real name, this will be very easy.

Shoot up the place

$5 for you sir. Hope you can recoup.

After the whole lordofthefat incident, I don't think Master is trying to scam anyone. Seems like a nice guy and needs help.

[QUOTE=Ohforf;28108005]Who was that mod that said begging for money will result in an instant pban? He sure did let that promise slip, didin't he? :colbert:[/QUOTE] you'd think by now you'd know about backseat moderation

give us all of your personal information so we can send you pizzas and sign you up for the army if you fuck us over

You may want to also post this on some other forums like Reddit. People there are pretty generous and it has a large community so you can get yourself "out there"

[QUOTE=Ohforf;28108005]Who was that mod that said begging for money will result in an instant pban? He sure did let that promise slip, didin't he? :colbert:[/QUOTE] Wait, shit is this for real? What is the mod that said that?

i would but i also don't have a job and am in debt to the bank :(

I'd donate but I'm a poor bastard too :smith: Well, its not as bad as with you. I hope you'll find a job!

Master117. I love you. Your posts are always quality and you are a genuine person. Sadly, I can not help you in your time of need. I really wish I could because I know how that LordofFat faggot took what you didn't have in the first place. I just hope that you can find yourself in a position better than where you are now. As a[sp]Christian, I have prayed for you before I have even typed out this post. And I know that you've probably heard this from lots of Christians before, but it's true. God loves you so fucking much.[/sp] Just endure, Master. Help will arrive soon. spoiler tagged for shitstorm. [editline]huh[/editline] Why the funnies?

I think it'd help everyone if you were to post some personal information, actually. It sounds stupid but if we were to have your full name, email, facebook link etc people would be much more likely to donate.

Just donated 30 danish kroners to you

You should apply to work for your city. (If they are hiring) Government work pays well. Or move back in with your parents till you're back on your feet. Or if you want to stoop to new lows, do a porn. But honestly, asking for handouts on an internet forum isnt going to work..

[QUOTE=Ferosso;28108140]Just donated 30 danish kroners to you[/QUOTE] is that like £1?

I'm in the same situation. If I get any surplus cash, I'll throw some your way.

I've got some money on my desk - I'll see what I can do.
