Car needs work = $210.
Need car fixed to start new job in next town over on Monday, thus meaning money to drive back and forth and loss of unemployment benefits. This means losing $40 a week, but gaining health insurance, various other benefits, and not being the "lowly unemployed" for longer than 3 months.
There's something wrong with being young and responsible in America.
I have to get my own place. My Mother's treating me like I'm 15 and conversely, I cannot help but feed the cycle. Time to look for a second job.
So tempted...so very tempted to turn this job down.
What's stopping me?
