Mcdonalds Tags

my name is chrissy. in a 25 year old mother of two. and in currently pregnant. our electricity was just turned off. our bill is right around $2000. i have to come up with at least $500 to get it turned back on. my gas is about to be shut off. i really need help. i do have a Job. I'v e worked at mcdonalds for 6 yrs now. but i am so far behind that in truly desperate for help... is there anyone out there?

This is why I'm posting here:

I am 25 and for my entire life, I have been fat. I don't mean this as in, a little on the chubby side; but obese. I can remember being in 5th grade, when our class had to get weighed and measured at the nurses office. The sinking feeling in my gut that came up when I weighed almost 200 lbs at the age of 10 is something that I don't think I will entirely forget.

Because of my horrible diet as a child (McDonalds, soda, you name it), I have spent my entire young life coping with being overweight and all of the horrible things that go with it: wondering if I'll fit in a seatbelt, wondering if I would break a friends bed or chair if I sat on it, or never being able to find a cute outfit to wear like all the other girls. When I was about 14, I was diagnosed with PCOS, which is cysts on my ovaries (contributing to my obesity, or as a result of, but they worked in tandem to make my life miserable). Without health insurance, I was never able to get this issue resolved, and with my poor diet, my weight increased. PCOS symptoms also include abnormal facial and body hair, which was (and to a degree still is) the bane of mine and any woman's existence. A woman should never have to feel so ashamed of her own body, and yet that is exactly how I've felt for as long as I've realized that I was different, and that looks mattered.

My highest weight as of 4 months ago topped out at 324 (thought I had reached 340 a year earlier but had lost some weight over a long period of time). Recently I began taking HCG (a hormone that helps regulate fertility and also helps with weight loss), and am amazed to report that for the first time in my adult life, I am 270 lbs. While this still is a lot, for me it is an incredible number to be at. Never in my life have I felt the fear of dying at 30 begin to be lifted, though I still have a long way to go.

So the point of my request: there are a lot of dreams I have that I feel like I am within reach of grasping. Some of them have already been fulfilled: I have been able to travel with my family, and this past year my parents helped me to finance a jeep. This is a huge one...I live on the west coast and have always wanted to live a surfer/beach lifestyle.

But how could a fat girl ever be a surfer? It's been my dream for the past 10 summers to learn to surf, with beaches only 15 minutes away. But every year, the fear stopped me, my weight stopped me, my inability stopped me.

I want this year to be the last year fear gets in the way.

With my weight going down, I've been trying to exercise. I've been attempting a modified version of P90X, and have been eating healthy and avoiding all the foods that got me where I am today. The problem is that financially, while I do work full time, I barely make enough to cover my bills (gas, car insurance, car payment, cell phone), and am not even able to help my hard working parents pay rent. So money for extras this summer is not really possible, but I CAN'T let another year go by without accomplishing this task.

I want to attend a surf camp this summer in San Diego, called Surf Divas. The problem? Surf lessons are expensive. I think to get me on the right path, I'd need at least 10 hours of lessons. At $82 an hour, thats $820.

The reason I want to fulfill this dream is to prove to myself and others that no matter where you've been, or how far your body is from being in shape, that the human body is remarkably capable of change. I would want to encourage anyone who doesn't think they are the right "type" to surf or do a sport that they can push their bodies to do things they never thought possible. And I sincerely believe that learning to surf will help me pursue my health and fitness goals long term, as well as truly set free the earth-and-sea-loving hippie that I keep snug and close to my soul. I live for summer and the ocean...and being able to ride a way would be life changing for me.

If anyone is able to donate or help support me in taking charge of my health and fitness...there would be no adequate way to thank you. I will send you a picture of me riding my very first wave as a token of gratitude, with a friendship bracelet made by me with a few shells from the beach strung on it. My way to say thank you for helping me to live a healthy life.

I'm a giver who rarely gets, but if you could change that, I would be most grateful.

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing because I have found an injustice that it seems no one else has noticed. I know that I am only one person, but they say one voice CAN make a difference.

I know many people who have made their share of mistakes  we all have sinned no one is perfect. Some just get caught up, can't afford a lawyer and   And want to confess, hoping there would be some type of leniency.  Considering they were young and didn't realize this would affect them the rest of their life. and i have tried to correct each mistake i  have made. The question I pose is how long is a person supposed to pay for those mistakes? Everyday I see people who are doing there best to clean up there life and get a job; but because they are felons/ or have a heinous misdemeanor as society feels that is a liability.  they are turned away from having a better life. That not only affects them and their families but it also affects society. If a man or woman is trying to lead an honest life and jobs are turning those individuals away what’s left? Go back to “the block”? If they get back in the streets they take the risk of losing there *freedom* but if they keep being turned away from jobs because of their past they risk losing there homes and families too. So what is a person to do after all we make mistakes.  Some are just smarter, or maybe they just know how to hold a lie like Casey anthony. But how is it fair for an employer to turn me away for being honest about my past. After all it was 13 years ago and did I ever really know how hard of a punishment and debt that I would half to pay to society as well to my unthought of family at the time.  My decision as a child is affecting my now 10 year old.  I made a mistake i feel like I would of been better off stoned to death I'n the center of the city.  Than to go on continue getting turned down left and right I don't know how long I can go on like this.  Where is the justice for me? Do I no longer have rights.  Am I considered a worthless piece of trash now that I have a conviction a black cloud holding over my head? From 13 years ago I was 18!!  How fair is that for my family NOW! Something needs to be done.  Justice for all!!! These employers shouldn't have the right to go as far back and discriminate. There should be a 7 year law.  After all there is a clean sleight after bankruptcy.  There able to wipe their debt clean as if they owed nothing.  Why can't we. Why is there some type of stigma.  For people that have been convicted and have never gotten convicted again.  That's showing you were trying to live as productive as we can I'n society.  But trying is the key word here because I feel I can't even get a chance!  

Despite what people may think, individuals who have records also have families they have to care for. Once a person has paid there debt to society for there crime and is making noticeable effort to clean up and live right they should have the opportunity to do just that, not be sentenced to a life of crime because there is no other way to survive. I’m sorry but McDonalds and Burger King just isn’t going to cut it with a 30 year old man or woman with 3 kids. This is supposed to be America, the land of opportunity and justice for all, but where is the justice for these people?

I feel very strongly about this and I would love to see justice made true. I plan to write every address and person I can find. I plan to be that one voice that is letting as many people know that this is wrong and unfair according to plain ethics and the so called American Dream.

I truly hope this reaches out to you and I hear back from you soon. I don’t know if a 32 year old female who is living a life like the one I explained above is going to make a difference but I can say at least I am trying make a difference.

It's verry hard for me. I can't find work. I have no health insurance. And recently I need work done on my mouth that I can't afford to pay for. I don't know where to turn. I can't afford a Christmas for my daughter. And if unemployment dint get passed for 2012 were screwed. There's been days of me going without to bed hungry so my daugter can eat. Sometimes I think of ending my life cuz I'm some useless pice of crap that can't make it I'n this word. But my daughter gives me strength and with god I know all this are possible. I won't give up, I'll keep fighting. It's just so hard. Abd it doesn't get any Easyer I'n this small town. If you know of anything that can help me and my child please feel free to call. 484-560-0090. Something's gotta give there's gotta be a way out... -Ceecee

Please remember Gods loves everyone and gave his life for EVERYONE to live even convicted misdemeanors.

Yours truly an American reject

I am 38 years old, mother of 3, & currently trying to find a job, but this economy!! Not even McDonalds is calling me back! I have never asked for any help like this before, even having lived on the streets for a few months, but am swallowing my pride & asking for help now. My utilities are about to get shut off & my rent is coming up, but no money to pay any of my bills & if it wasn't for the foodbank I would have no food. I really do not want to live on the streets again, so PLEASE help me? I am desperate enough now to ask for help, as much as it kills my pride.

Hello,
I am a single mother struggling with two children. Ages 11 and the baby 11 months old. I am a full-time student in college obtaining my bachelors degree in february of 2012. I've worked all my life; never imagined myself in a position where i couldn't provide for myself or my children. I set goals and high expectations for myself and now that my life is at a standstill, i find myself falling into a depression, granted i am going to school but it's hard to concentrate on my studies with all that's going on in my personal life. I pray to God day and night, but i understand he must have a plan for me, i truly believe that what doesn't break you will only make you stronger. i am a person that was the one to help others if they needed, but now that the shoe is on the other foot i don't see these people anymore, i have no family or friends that can help me in my situation right now.

We live on a fixed income, not enough to make ends meet. i buy what i can but it doesn't last more than two weeks, then baby needs pampers or more milk or we run out of food and i have to humble myself to ask the manager at the supermarket for store credit. Paying him back is still shortening us.

I can't afford to buy my son a crib, since he's grown out of the bassinet, he's been sleeping with me and has fell off the bed at least five times, thank God he wasn't hurt, Thank God for carpet, i have spoken to social services and other charities requesting a crib because i can't afford it and they've told me that i don't fit the criteria, i'd have to be leaving a shelter into an apartment or i'd have to be a victim of a fire where my belongings were all destroyed. It's unreal, but i'm fighting it now.

It hurts when you can't give your children the things they need. My oldest is walking around with the sad face because she see's what i'm going through. She doesn't ask me for anything..., not like she use to. but she tells me that she understands and she's patient because she knows it will get better. She says this because she see's i'm out everyday i'm only home when the kids are home, i'm in school monday thru friday if not in class then in the study hall. MY daugher sleeps alot now and i'm praying she's not seeping into a depression. I talk to her on a daily basis and try to do fun things like go to the park or take a walk around the neighborhood but it doesn't seem like it's working. she's becoming quiet and it's bothering me, i'm considering counseling for her. she's going through alot for an 11 year old and she shouldn't be, but i always tell her she's my trooper and i need for her to be strong right now, she's angry...., i know she is and it probably has to do alot with her father for not helping us and for a few other reasons, but i explain to her that how can he help us when he can't help himself.

School time is coming around again and i have no money to get my daughter what she needs. Baby boy is beginning to grow out of his clothing and i'm worrying and stressing. I am a honest person, a respectful person..., the kind of soul that would do what i can to help sum 1 else and in my current situation, i have. i remember just a few weeks ago it was this woman who looked to be about eight months pregnant sitting in front of mcdonalds holding a sign up that read something like "we're hungry can you please help". i gave five dollars knowing i needed it, but i just couldn't see a pregnant woman not feeding herself and her baby...., as a mother i couldn't see it. And if she was running a scam, then God will deal with her, but at least i know i did what i felt in my heart was the right thing.

I've tried high and low to look for legitimate work at home jobs while i'm in school to help supplement my fixed income but i've run into nothing but scams.

I am asking for a kind hearted individual to please help us. I've never done anything like this before. I had come across this website while searching 4 work at home opportunities, and maybe this is God's way of answering our prayers. This is a temporary situation and once i get myself back on my feet i vow to myself and my kids that we will never be put in this situation again, i'll save..., i'll do what i have to. This hurts so bad.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story, if you've read this far then it means your a caring person. God Bless you.

Hello great people,

Please help donate $4.00 less than a McDonalds happy meal. If we get 100 people to donate then we can get our central A/C fixed and save our two dogs, two cats, and two children, wife and guinea pig from melting in the 100 plus Texas heat inside our house. I have never had to ask for help from fellow Americans before. We greatly appreciate any amount that you can donate. Our family will pay if forward within the community and on begslist in the next 60 days. Thanks and God bless.

Please, please help me and my family. My husband is a teacher and his check is eatten up with furlough days. I have looked everywhere for a job (McDonalds.Dairy Queen, Merry Maids). And I can't find anything in my field at all. Im not picky I would clean someone's house, pick up garbage, clean offices, walk dogs, pick up dog poop.....anything, if I could just get a paycheck first. We have had our car break down and I had to use the last weeks grocery money to get a new battery. Please I have 3 kids and I have to feed them. I don't know what my husband would do if he realizes I'm on Here or that I blew it. Please if I could just get a total 150. I know I'm asking a lot but I have asked my kids to sacrifice so much already. And I can't go to my parents because they disowned me 18 years ago. I promise I will come back and repAy to others if I could get help this one time. I am truly desperate. and I am afraid that desperation is turning into depression. Again, Im truly begging. And I know you don't know me but when I promise to come back on here to help others, I will keep my word.

I was layed off from my job of 6 years in 2005 due to budget cuts. In order to keep up with bills while I looked for a new job I started a computer repair business that managed to keep us afloat for a couple years, along with tapping my 401k. During this time the local economy took and even bigger hit and even with over a decade of experience I was unable to find sufficient work without a degree. As a result I decided to go back to school in 2009 to get my degree. With fiancial aid, the remainder of my 401k, money from the odd jobs I could find, and my wifes wages we managed to stay just ahead of our bills.

However in the last year the economy has gotten so bad that I was actually losing money repairing and building custom PC's, my wifes hours have been cut wo less than 10 hours a week, and any job that I have applied for I am not eligble for either because I am still finishing my degree so am under qualified, or because I am over qualified due to the schooling I have completed so far. (That's right I have been told I am overqualified to flip burgers at Mcdonalds, not sure how that works.)

Because of our reduced income we have been late on a number of bill payments for utilities and the house. I have sold my boat, my guns, and various electronics to get were we are and am to the point I have nothing of value left to sell. Aside from the monthly bills I have repair bills racking up on the house and our remaining vehicle.

The to top it off we got hit with a flood that took out our water heater, washer and dryer, and did significant damage to the rest of the basement.

Current bills include:
Cable $185
Cell $195
Mortgage $850
porperty taxes $200
food $600
gas $250
misc expenses for kids $200+ (8 year old daughter, 17 year old son)

repairs
replace water heater $1200
replace washer and dryer $500
engine and transmission work needed $2400
replace flooring and wall paneling $7500


Current monthly income
Wife: $600
Me: $800

Even with the financial aid and some other assistance we are almost $600 a month short just for the basic bills.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

My name is Alexander Turro - my mother recently kicked me out of the house because I turn 19 next month, and still have no job. She did this KNOWING i have nowhere to stay. I've been living on the streets, and showering at my girlfriend's house - putting in applications by day, huddled in a pile of sheets by night. I have no money whatsoever, only the laptop i bought with the money I made helping my dad with catering oh so many years ago; i can't sell it, it's the only way i have to get in touch with people.

I am newly engaged and dirt poor. I would love to celebrate our wedding, and the start of our lives together, with all of my family and my fiance's family, however that comes to about 110 people, and I don't want to have the McDonalds dollar menu be the caterer!

My husband just lost his job a few months ago (after being unemployed for almost a year after his previous job almost killed him.) He has type 1 diabetes insulin dependent.

He was so proud that he finally landed a job and things were going better and then another mishap at work cost him another job. So, now we are facing losing our home. Our landlord wants the 600.00 for rent and we will also lose our electricity and so on. . . We do receive Food stamps with two small boys under three. They eat A LOT and my husband who should be eating quite a bit during the day to regulate his Diabetes is only able to eat one small meal per day along with me.

This is the first Christmas that we cannot buy any Christmas toys for our two sons. (Who is almost three and another who just turned one.)

Please help to instill happiness and faith into my husband while he's searching for another job. He has two degrees one from College and University in IT. Even Mcdonalds won't hire him. He's trying so hard. We owe so much to bills and every day life needs to keep a growing family going and the needs of my husband who will die if he doesn't keep his Diabetes regulated.

We have only been asking 10.00- 20.00 donation. Just a small donation as that helps towards anything right now. As a Mother. Please help me by helping my family.

Merry Christmas to you!!!!
