What Annoyed You Today? (1 Viewer)

As many of you know, I was killed in a head-on wreck 5 years ago (the EMTs brought me back for some reason, though) and even though the Docs say I'm in bad shape, the state says I'm fine - hence, no income...that's pretty stressful as I am watching my life savings wither away BUT, it gets better.

The landlord of my place, where I've lived for 28 years, has decided to completely remodel the buildings in order to get a higher rent. So, what this clown is doing, is evicting the tenants (many long term, very nice people) and making the places more "modern" and appealing so he can up the rent...especially now that Redding is in a housing shortage because many people were displaced by the savage wildfire that destroyed several towns in our area.

Perfect...the Holidays are upon us, I'm soon to be out on the curb and no jobs, no places available - I hope this douchebag has karma fall all over his stupid azz... :rage:

Really sorry to here that Dave. It's amazing how some people like your landlord seem not to care about pain they inflict on others as long as it profits them.
 
Sorry to hear this. Hard row to hoe. Some states are less cash-strapped than yours and more generous with disability benefits, though possibly more challenging climate-wise. Maybe a little networking could help you find one. Like maybe the ones that are making a killing on shale oil and have booming economies. Good luck.
Cheers,
Wes
 
What did you use for bait?
Well, jump starting my car in the cold, pouring rain because I had left the lights on all day might have had something to do with it.
By the time I got things running I was soaked, the driver's seat was soaked and there was water sloshing around on the floorboards.
The seat was still wet two days later.
 
Thanks guys and I apologize for the rant...just that the past few years have been a bit much and then this latest development was the tipping point.

Really frustrating to say the least, especially with winter (and the Holidays) coming on.
 
Work putting me in such an awesome mood just before the weekend. Just waiting for the 5000 pound ACME Anvil to fall on my head and get it all over with, why not just about everything else has gone south on me so far today.

Dave, don't know if this an avenue youve already explored but there are lawyers who specialize in representing people applying for disability and do it on some kind of contingency.
My mother is disabled, became completely unable to work, and was turned down for disability. She then got a lawyer who knew how to document everything, fill out the write forms, etc. and got aproved. Also she didn't have to pay anything up front as I recall.
I didn't know know youd been in a horrible accident but sure glad they brought you back.
Hope this helps.
 
Thanks for the info, Michael, but I fought SDI all the way to a hearing "judge" (laughable at best) and this clown was an angry old guy who pretty much had me in his sights the moment I sat down.

To get you up to speed, this is what happened on the evening on 7 April 2013:
