I just started a new job today. I left my old one after putting in my two weeks' notice. Well, come to find out after today's work I was let go.

At the previous job I was making under paycheck to paycheck. I couldn't even pay for rent in August so I had to have someone pull out a loan for me so I could.

I don't know what to do. This has never happened to me before. I don't want to be homeless.

I'm so sorry. I recently got let go from my job, and I'm trying not to freak out. First thing, get signed up for unemployment. Since you just started at a new job, I'm assuming your resume and cover letter are up to date. So, start applying. I'm using multiple tools to identify places to work, including linked in, personal contacts and indeed. Best of luck!!

So sorry this happened to you. I had a similar experience last month and am still looking for work. I've had some interviews but it's a very slow process. In the meantime, I'm doing short-term online counseling through Better Help (pay is awful but cleints are referred quickly), Door Dash, and diversifying by listing jobs on Fiverr. It's a hustle every day and I am still having to get a loan to pay my mortgage for next month. Still staying positive and know something will come up soon. Best of luck and positive thoughts to you.

I am generally uncomfortable when I’m around my mother-in-law’s husband.

While he is overall a decent guy, his anger issues, yelling at his wife for the slightest issue, and insulting nature makes me uncomfortable and triggers my own anger due to his blatant disrespect for just about everyone around him.

My mother-in-law says he’s worked on things, but it’s been 10 years of this and I’m not sure I want such behavior around my wife and our kids since we’re trying to conceive soon (cont).

So, I’m interviewing for a position that fits perfectly, HR likes my profile, had great conversations with them. Today I had a Panel interview with HR and the hiring manager. The manager is not experienced, it’s her first r manager role and she’s been in it for 3 months. I was prepared but was out of breath the entire interview, had a knot in my throat, had trouble finding my words. It’s like I had PTSD when this manager came into the picture. Ever had that?

What do you guys think about apps like BetterHelp and Talkspace?

Just seems a little fad-like and money grabby to me. Thoughts?
