There is a soup kitchen in Waterbury. that according to their website is open for breakfast and lunch. You may want to consider visiting them until your Walmart job starts.

There’s a soup kitchen near Baldwin street I tried to make it to but I found out about it too late. So I’m going to try to make it tomorrow

I didn't see any problems today either. I guess the answer to your question is, it hasn't.

I’m sorry but what? I have no reason to scam. I have no reason to lie. I have no reason to embarrass myself and put my situation on blast. Do you know how embarrassing it is to admit you’re homeless when you try so hard to make it look like you’re doing fine. If you message me I can show you whatever you’d like for me to prove that I’m homeless. I have dialed 211. My stepdad was the only family I really had. I’ve been going to gas stations and taking bird baths in the sink basically. I’m not asking for anything but to figure out where I can go or what I can do. You don’t have to be mean. I have no reason to lie.

Yes, it's powder coated, except the glass tabletop, I had a fire in the patio last weekend, and you never know in CT. I'm always ready for a beer and a firepit night.

Nah, they'll just figure out a way to make poison really expensive

Sorry I should’ve added more info. Im in Waterbury. I am not working but I had an interview at Walmart yesterday so I think I should be working soon. I used to eat at least 2 times a day before this happened but lately it’s been slipping my mind to eat. So I’d say about once within 2 days something small if I can afford it. I’ve been getting headaches and have been feeling dizzy when I stand up fast. I forgot the name for the word.

We treat our pets with more dignity than our ill. It’s really sad. People should have the right chose their own path. It’s not a decision that someone else should have any opinion on.

Why? It's more expensive, meaning more profitable, to keep people "alive" as long as possible

Reply to comment by fastnsx21 in T mobile coverage in CT by Bagelstoss
I've used mint for 3 years and like it, just north of you. Good coverage almost everywhere I go, iirc, they're 5g up to Chippens Hill. Hotspot usage of your phone is included. I use T-Mobile for my home internet, and the nice thing about using 4-5 G instead of cable is I bring my modem in my motorhome and get wi-fi without using cell phone data.

In a perfect world, most people would die by assisted suicide, right? Comfortable and in control of their own lives. I get what you're saying but that's not an inherently scary statistic.

Ahhh. Moisture retention. Got it. I’ve had issues at least early with too much moisture, slugs and some mildew. Every year it’s been a new issue. Last year I didn’t have a garden for first time since having a yard.

Because it’s New England and a shovel serves many purposes. I keep one in my car all winter.

Maybe this is a scam, I don’t know, but I have a little time to kill, so:
What part of the state are you in? Knowing that will let people make suggestions that you can actually drive to. Are you still working? How have you been eating since you lost the house last month?
Give us a some more information, it’s hard to give advice with what you’ve written here.

No, I don’t. At least where I work, employees are very clear that our job is to support the company by ensuring we are adhering to employment laws, our employee handbook, and by working to attract and retain talent by creating a good place to work. Luckily, adhering to employment laws in place to protect people and retaining talent are best achieved by creating a safe, pleasant workplace with good pay and benefits, so I don’t find that my job is often at odds with helping employees. The only part I have really hated is having to lay off employees in the past, through no fault of their own. But at the end of the day, I work for a business and those are business decisions. That’s why I tell people I know that they don’t owe a company their loyalty - it’s a business relationship, not a personal relationship, and that is true on both sides. Do what’s best for you and move on if you need or want to.
