In a bad spot and I need help.
Hey, I have hit a rough patch. Some may know that in February my team was laid off from our job. It has been difficult finding a new job and freelance. I have had some short gigs that have pulled me through. I actually am starting one tomorrow, but the rent and bills are catching up. I don't have a safety net or family to rely on. I am really embarrassed to ask for help but here I am.
I am always told I'm good at my work. I am at a higher level in my career(Design Directer / Advertising, Branding). That higher level is tough to fill and I get a lot of "you are too experienced" yet I love working at any level in my field. Also, if you need a Design/Creative Director, let's talk.
Here is the deal:
My resources are depleted. I have many prospects, but it takes time at this level. And I only have a few weeks until I will not be able to pay electric and phone bills and ultimately (not far away) I will face eviction. I am in Jersey City and eviction is a very different story in NJ than NY State.
I am so sorry that I am here asking for help. But I am at this point.
PLEASE KNOW THIS:
I WILL find work and I get paid well. Any donation will be thought of as a loan. I do think I will be in a great shape within the next month or two and I WILL repay any assistance. Hopefully by the end of 2018. Or earlier.
I am a ridiculously optimistic guy. And I love anyone reading this. Thanks for any help you can give. Karma. xo
