You have to increase income fast to absorb the sudden cost. Coincidentally, the manager can hire you to work the graveyard shift to cover that -- and make you his round-the-clock emotional punching bag.
You and your daughter deal with chronic health issues and rely on food stamps and medicaid.
The sudden added income causes you to lose your public benefits.
Now you’re paying more money for your room than you earn – accumulating arrears of almost half a month’s rent. You’re paying more rent than income. Your epileptic daughter has no insurance. You’re dealing with car troubles.
You’re trapped.
This is the real-life nightmare of Crystal Whittle, one of my fellow guests at our motel, and I’m going to be fundraising to help free her from the grip of a nasty, greedy, petty, incompetent, frumpy little tyrant who relishes in being cruel to already vulnerable, marginalized people. (1/4)
UPDATE: Crystal's GoFundMe is now LIVE. Please share far and wide!!!
