Furloughed Government contract Worker
Donation protected
I was recently furloughed from my job at FAA in Oklahoma City. Not getting any money soon because of shutdown. I never expected this to happen. I have 3 dogs and a house payment, house bills, car payment, insurance and at this time worried I won't have health, eye , or dental after the 31st.
I have lived in my home 20 years and love my home. this money will be used to benefit my survival and my home. Normally I would get paid on the 10th, but now i have nothing coming. I am being held hostage in my home , praying and hoping I go back to work soon. I used the last of my money on Christmas and putting my dog down after he had a stroke..
They charge $241.00 to put a dog down. WTF? If my insurance runs out , my meds will cost $1500.00, with insurance it's $130.00 per month. I live very simple, mad as hell about this. I want to work. Unemployment will bring in $287.00 per week. i had major back surgery and was off for 3 weeks so it lowered my income by $8000.00.
