I am incredibly embarrassed to even make this but recently I left a job due to extremely transphobic/queerphobic actions towards me and I no longer felt safe/welcome in my job.

I applied for unemployment before Thanksgiving (which was approved despite my old employer fighting it) but I still have not been paid for it. I have used the rest of my savings / checking account to make sure I can pay the rest of this month but after November is done, I will not have the money for anything, including food, in December. I have canceled any and all recurring payments for things like Spotify etc so that I can attempt to survive until UE kicks in.

I am actively applying for jobs / interviewing etc and have not heard anything back yet but even when I get a new job, it will be two weeks minimum from the start date before I can get paid. I put a list of barebone expenses that I need desperate help covering so that I do not become homeless and in an even deeper hole.

Rent - $900

HRT - $150

Utilities - $100

Car Note / Insurance - $400

Phone - $120

Misc - $200

Thank you so much.
