Just yesterday, I completed an application for snap benefits. That’s all I wanted and needed assistance with. Because I’m a part-time worker, my finances at times get strapped because I’m paying off a loan from a bank and it makes my working budgets feel a little compressed. I need some breathing room here.
I hope I get them but I never intend to be on it forever, I just need some financial security and resource assurance. I’ve always tried being a person who looked to things like this and only go to them when I needed them, not because I wanted them and mooch off from them.
No, I paid for those benefits. I got laid off once and even though my company paid me severance I still signed up for unemployment benefits. While employed they took money out of my check every pay period for that purpose.
As for snap, your employer should feel guilty for not paying you enough. No employed person should be on food stamps.
