Long Time Member (Dr. Gonzo GED) Needs help
LLong time member, Dr. Gonzo GED, is in dire straights and in need of some help to prevent him from becoming homeless in January.
First and foremost, he needs and prefers getting a job. He is in NE (waiting for his PM stating exactly what area in NE). When I find out exactly where, I'll post for you guys in that area who might give him a job lead.
If you would like to donate to help out, PM me and I will give you info as where to send funds. Any amount will be a blessing.
Please give what you can.
Thanks!!!!

That's my current resume, but I also have a great deal of experience in customer service / sales, food service both front of house and back, shipping and recieving / office support, and also some basic facilities maintenance. I've done some small part fabrication and assembly work building scale models. Also some polyurethane casting, as well as some entry level woodwork and painting / staining. Also done a large amount of high quality / high volume printing and matte work. I'm computer litterate, proficient on both Mac and PC platforms, and most importantly, I am HIGHLY motivated to start work. Oh, and I just passed my OLCC test and food handlers test, so I could work as a bar back now. (State requirment for serving alcohol.)
I am in NE Portland Oregon. I'm not planning to move any time soon. I tried relocating to California where I have family a few months ago, and that was a horrible and costly mistake. At the moment I really cannot afford relocation, moneywise or otherwise.
Not to confuse anybody, I have found a room, and the rent is payed for the next 30 days. Just got in on the first, but until yesterday I had been homeless since march of last year. I lived in a office space for a while, and I've been couch surfing for most of the rest of the time, or living in flea bag motels a couple days here and there when we could spring for it. I don't have any children, thank god, because it would be awfull for kids to be in this situation. My income was unemployment, but it went hand to mouth and it ran out last week. I used most of my last check to pay for my room.
