That friend I'm always yammering about, who lived with me for a year, messaged me yesterday.
Apparently her workplace told her they're letting her go in a month. It has to do with disability accommodations, as she has ADHD. I forget all the details. She's consulting with a lawyer about it, hope there's something she can do. They really suck for a lot of reasons. They time bathroom breaks, they time customer interactions down to the second. They seem really stupid.
I don't know how she will find another way to survive. It sucks. I called her last night and she just feels kind of defeated. No retirement savings, not nearly enough emergency savings, no family she can lean on. It all drained away last time she was unemployed. I have a few hundred bucks in an emergency aid fund for other people, but it's not going to be enough to keep her afloat. I feel terrible, I just want her to be okay.
