I am unemployed and I just overdrafted my checking account again. It's such a simple thing, and I just got careless. No excuse. I feel like shooting myself. My fiancee and I are struggling as it is. And this is the second time I did this. Hundreds of dollars going in my bank's pockets. Unfuckingbelievable. I really don't feel like shooting myself, but I can understand why some people resort to crime.
I once saw this car at a gas station and it was fucking sharp. Probably in the 50-60 thousand range, and it was so cool lookin'... an Acura I think. And I thought, "Man whoever owns that car is going places." Here my buddy knows him. He's a drug dealer. Here I am struggling, like so many others, and this dude... Oh well. He'll probably end up in jail someday anyways.
Good news though... I was just told that I am going to receive a letter of offer from this place I interviewed at. And the position will pay well. The light is there at the end of the tunnel. I can see it. But it sometimes seems like it's lightyears away. I know that it's there though, and I know I'll get to it. Some people don't even have that. I suppose I should be thankful.
I gotta go. Happy Holidays to all. Never ever give up.

Dude, I know we might not like eachother because of the Steelers and although I am happy they are finally being exposed and showing that the defense has carried that team for years and that they need a TOP NOTCH defense to win, that doesnt change the fact that you are a mess right now. For a second there it seemed you were envious of the drug dealer. Unless he is the 1 in a million who isnt greedy he will end up in jail or dead. Get your shit straight and keep trying. If you throw out the bait [job interviews,apps] enough times you will catch a fish. Think positive and you will fall on your feet. Take your own advice and dont give up.

They always say "judge a man on how he handles the bad times not the good times."
Keep your chin up, and forget about all that jazz about commmiting a crime, I just recieved a letter yesterday from a friend who's incarcerated till Jan 2011 here's a portion of the letter
"Iam embarrassed beyond words at who I have become. My self destructive behaviour has taken away everything from me."
I could quote more but I think that sums it up. Ironically it was his gambling addiction that got him in this mess.

Sounds like things are turning around for you. At least you have your health right because if you don't people will give anything for that which you cannot necessarily get back. BOL and happy holidays to you too!

Just remember man, when you think life has gotten as bad as it can get remember that there is always someone who is worse off than you. Be thankful for what you have and strive to do better and you will be happy.
Happy Holidays bud, I hope it all works out for you

Sorry for your struggles, I hope you get the job. Put some "overdraft protection" on the checking account. Keep fighting, the drug dealer will get his one day in this life or the next.

With overdraft protection, the bank still charges you, they just cover your check. You still get the $35 or whatever charge. I wish you the best, hope you get that job. Most of us have been broke and jobless at one time. A better day to you tomorrow. Onward and upward.

Well said man. Still its tough. I had some shit kinda blow up in my face recently. Someone might have loosened the bolts on the wheels of my car. I wrecked. But I'm still alive. Nice to know there's other stubborn bastards out there who won't give up.
Off to watch Shawshank. Or Deliverance. At least we don't have to squeal like a pig.

whatever you're doing to get back on your feet, don't give up ... not even one little bit ... if you're trying to save money, don't ever say "oh i'll spend a dollar on this bullsh!t and start saving tmrw" ... be persistent with whatever you're setting your mind to .. don't even give an inch

almost as bad as you with your pimp shades on mean muggin with a 6 inch fish in your hands...
not sure what bank you use, but hundreds of dollars sounds like a lot for one overdraft,assuming you didnt go over by that much
hang in there. My dad is 54 with a masters in biochemistry and he has been through 5 jobs in 7 years. The economy is affecting everyone, but it always turns around as long as you keep fighting. at least it sounds like the important things in your life like love and family are heading in the right direction though. Good Luck man

SteelCash, I know how you feel as I have been unemployed several times and it is no fun scraping by for your next meal. But I firmly believe you will come out of this situation okay if you keep hope alive and try to stay positive. Don't ever resort to crime or suicide or anything drastic over money. There is always a place to take you in even if you hit rock bottom.
Tough, unpleasant times like these define a person's character or lack thereof. Hang in there, keep doing the right thing, and you will come out of this okay. I wish you well.

I've been there a lot, in the past when I worked in the TV industry shows would get cancelled all the time, and I'd always bee looking for a job.
Then just last year I got laid off and screwed out of back pay by my employer. Now I've started my own business and life is better, but those hard times still come, each time you fall you just get stronger climbing back up.
I know it's hard but you have to concentrate on the good stuff and stay positive all the time, even when it seems like there is no where to go but down.
I could go on a serious rant about the banks too, they have no mercy. Just last month I had a situation where my spending account overdrew by .78 cents so I transferred money over from my business account to cover it and they charged me $35 for every transaction I made costing me $245 in fees. They said I didn't transfer the money over in time and refused to take off any of the charges. Overdraft protection helps lower fees but you still get charged.
the part that made me sick is i kept on seeing this one transaction from weinerschnitzel where I bought a $2 hot dog and it cost me $37!
So just keep your chin up and take the punches, tough times in life just make you tougher.
I'm at the point now where my business cash flow can go crazy sometimes. I can start a job that drains my account then I'll be broke until I finish. But I've been seasoned over time, so when it seems scary I just roll with the punches and everything works itself out in the end.
stay tough and walk around acting like nothing is wrong, if you keep on trying and fighting the outcome will be positive for you.
