Please Donate to help Indigo with living expenses

Hi, my name is Indigo. You might know me as Skyliting or ParadisaCorbasi. I’m raising money for rent and other survival expenses until I can get a job, disability, or social security early retirement.

I spent 40+ years in customer service, but in 2022 my company downsized my position, and although my manager tried to find an opening in the company I could transfer to, there wasn’t one.

Since then, I’ve had a few contract or temporary positions, including one back at my original company, but nothing permanent. The job market these days is terrible. I end up with job hunter scams, spam mail, and jobs I am not qualified for.

I have visited job hunting resources and I have had my resume reviewed to bring it into parity with today's job search requirements.

My job hunt is further complicated by my asthma getting significantly worse. I can no longer do a job that requires talking on the phone, which was the majority of my career. I have to do a breathing treatment every few hours. I get out of breath just walking around my apartment. I'm exercising to improve that.

I’ve started a disability application, but we all know how long those take (and how often the first application gets denied).

Unfortunately, as a result of my unemployment, I also don’t have health insurance at the moment and got denied for Medicare, although I’m appealing that. This makes treating my respiratory issues even more complicated. The ACA plans I could afford when I had work didn't cover my needs.

I know times are hard for everyone, so if you can’t donate, please click that share link and send it around? I’d really appreciate it.
