2022 and Beyond
4 years ago
So... 2022 is here. And the world is still spinning while people are coughing. And so far... 2022 can go for a swim in a magma pit for all I care.
It started on December 23rd. A few days prior, I received a call from my landlord about a couple checks being deposited several weeks after I had given them the checks, and after several bills had been paid, which meant that the checks would not go through. They demanded that I pay them in full then and there or they'd file for eviction. After some negotiation, I thought the matter was resolved, until the 23rd when I received a "Notice to Vacate" from the companies lawyers. Furious, I called the landlord and demanded to know why he lied to me. He then told me to take all communication to the Lawyers, for he would not talk to me any further. I attempted to contact the Mosquitos with Briefcases, but got no response. So now I have to find a new place to live.
Unfortunately, this is only the start of the issue. Yes, I could've fought the decision, and likely won (who the heck tells someone to get out two days before Christmas?), but this company has already shown they can't be trusted with anything, so I've decided to move out. However the actual search for an apartment has not gone very smoothly. Most of the places I've looked at have either turned me down outright (some with no explanation I might add), or are so expensive up front as to make it impractical to even attempt it. There's some that are affordable, and will take me no matter what... but they're also in dahood, and I'm not interested in getting mugged or worse because my occupation (Security) makes me look like a cop at a glance.
To this end, while my search continues, I've created a GoFundMe to help gather the funds necessary to cover the costs of moving. The link for which can be found here: https://gofund.me/3aca1763
For those who want to help, but want something in return. Please let me know, and we can work something out.
As far as everything else is concerned at the moment, my job is going ok, but I had a "Mission Failed Successfully" moment earlier last week when the manager of my previous site decided she didn't want me on that site any more, and had me transferred out.... to a site that actually pays more. And future sites will also pay more according to the district manager. So there's that.
And if all that wasn't enough, despite being vaccinated and taking the precautions, I got a short bout with COVID. For me it was more of inconvenience than an actual threat, but it still cost me most of a weeks worth of wages.
Anyway, I hope everyone is doing better. And for those that help with the GoFundMe, I will be eternally grateful.
Tank out.
