      just a HEADS up do not go into STVT WELDING school PREGNANT !!!
      this school was on the south side of san antonio
      i live at HAVEN
      I am 22 weeks PREGNANT
      MY FIRST day of school they had me waiting all day outside class BECAUSE THEY WERE RUNNING A BACKGROUND CHECK
      how much did you get for that check STVT?
      YOU HAD ME TAKE OUT A LOAN BEFORE YOU RAN A BACKGROUND CHECK ?????????????
      LETS RUN THROUGH What i missed while out of class
      your a third party entity
      you share a building with a thrift store
      on the same block as PIZZA PATRON greasing things up for the autoMOTIVE department
      next to that a DENT IST A BRIDE DENT with DRY sockets running so hot the grass is FRIED MIGHT as well been a damn CHURCHES but if i need a REAL RUSH i can HOP across the street to the STRIP BAR CAR LOT with the IN FRINGEMINT ALERT IF they aint stripping BIC EZ THEY STRIPPING TVS? LAMPS?
      no they gladly throw those away
      a very large TV with an auto MOTIVE DEPART MENT that LIGHTS THE WAY for swivel RTTs PARTS and lamp cords stripped to the COPPER WIRE
      i was in welding
      asked multiple people
      "they dont do that here"
      me being at haven traveling to the south side every morning was not a challenge but sitting in a class
      stressed that i missed the first day then testing over an entire chapter PUT ME TO SLEEP
      SO i tell them im pregnant i didnt want them to not let me in because of that reason
      CREATING A STRONGER BABY
      A STRONGER AMERICAN WASNT ON THEIR MINDS IT WAS my BEHAVIOR
      using HAVEN as a copout as an excuse
      knowing that fafsa grants pell funding for people whom want to continue thier education and work
      they used this to their advantage
      they CHARGED JUST ENOUGH TO TAKE THE FAFSA AND GET A LOAN
      this is the second school i encountered
      TULSA welding in HOUSTON (234 greens )has me signing a master prommissory note LAST SEPTEMBER NOT PREGNANT yet i ALSO DID NOT GET TO GO TO THAT SCHOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!WAS INAPPROPRIATE
      WANNA SEE BACK LOGS OF IN PRO RATE? PI RATED? OR should i TRANSLATE??????
      i get called into the office
      THEY TOLD ME A COMMENT I MADE i couldnt say in class
      I SAID THE WELDING TIP LOOKS LIKE A CLIT
      i also told the third party boss that it was ignorant for her NOT TO RECOGNIZE it
      if you go into the RUclips and watch the videos some of the lingo is LAUGHABLE
      BEING A MOTHER OF TWO SPANISH NOW THREE SPANISH speaking children
      i would not want to MOLEST or BOTHER ANYONE WITH the terms FOR FEAR OF IGNORANT PEOPLE NOT KNOWING HOW TO RECOGNIZE NOUNS colors weights patterns repetition
      BECAUSE IT MIGHT BE IMPORTANT
      no i need to dumb myself down for the bosses next door
      maybe if i had givin them a LAP BAND across the street or THROWN AWAY THE HEAVY METAL in the yard in the GREEN CASH CAN for an EASY A instead of doing yard word "SERVICE WORK< COMMUNITY SERVICE< HAVING METALS TO WELD AFTER GRADUATION CLEANING MY SIDE OF THE STREET I WOULDNT HAVE
      said "you know what? this school IS NOT WORTH IT "
      they had more BEHAVI ORAL problems to talk to me about but i said you know what
      save it WITHDRAW ME IM OUTaOF HERE
      I WAS THERE FOR A WELDING CERTIFICATE NOT AN ACTING CLASS ON HOW TO BEHAVE
      EXCUSE ME WHILE I PRACTICE WELDING WITH A CONDUCTOR TIG TIP CIGARETTE WALKING MY PREGNANT ASS TO HAVE FOR HOPE
      DUECES
      YOURS TRULY
      STEPHANIE WALKER

      ​My organic sweet potatos, were purchased EBT. Had to work on producing the slips. Hoping they produce enough leafs, am told they make great nutritious consumption. The organic potting soil I had to purchase, along with planters were not cheap. Am hoping my gardening budget next year will allow for an easy to work with composter. So, I can recycle my soil and vegetable scraps. More money I hope to squeeze out of my pockets, that I hope I will get ,y money's worth out of. More skills to learn, such as figuring out how to keep insects off my vegetable plants. Each local EBT office should hand out free, a few planters, packets of seeds, potting soil. But not all EBT have places they can easily grow foods. The EBT office should hand out food preservation supplies. Some people can can. Others like me, a 'no', but it is more economical and healthier produce I can purchase at the peak of harvest season. Am still experimenting. Fruits are too sticky and not much success, so will stick to freezing off for smoothies. Bagged produce has that recommended step for preferred blanching, already done for my tiny kitchen. Dig deep into my pockets, spent a lot of time on the internet, researching, products and tips. Am happy with much of my dehydrating. Most veggies end up getting powdered and added to salads, soups, stocks and ramen. My food experience today is with watermelon rinds to powder. Want to try and add to fruit juice smoothies. Am skipping the Depression Era sugared watermelon and citrus rind recipes for kids candies.

    Getting Prime at 6.99 per mo. is a bit too tempting. I can't afford much beyond the necessities unless it's on sale and can be used enough to justify the cost. Dollar Tree non food "fun" purchases are limited to five or six dollars per week. Good to know, though. I'll pass this info on to the constituent assistance staff at my alderperson's office to put into their database of knowledge. Oh, and Lifeline/ACP are excellent programs.

In fact, you couldn't support a Chihuahua on the amount they give a single person! Anyway, since Social Security is getting an increase, HUD will get 30% of that, and the Food Stamps will decrease. The government gives with one hand, & takes away with the other! Hoping beyond hope for another Stimulus Check to get caught up on bills.

Can barely pick up 5lbs my whole spinal cord is messed up now and I can no longer work in the Health Field as a Home Health Aide that I did for 32 yrs-That was my Love and Life! I suffer from severe anxiety and PSTD amongst other injuries. There’s day I have to stay strong and positive yet it’s not always easy yet I manage.

Im seriously writing a letter and sending it to everyone involved in Government in the state Of FL. I’ve done it before I will do it again.

      ​​@@AllBrightColorshave lived in several subsidized apartments over the years. Some have small porches, but do not catch the sun enough to grow veggies. The one place I am at now, was thrilled to have a front porch. My most recent place, grew some marjoram seeds that came my way, and catnip my first year in to see how they will grow in this climate. My psychotic addicted neighbor ruined them by overwatering and clipping. She is finally gone. Am in the process of growing two organic sweet potatoes, from slips. One is doing fairly well. Need to put in larger pots. Anything over 20 inch pot is a lease violation from the porch police. Might have to break the rules by a few inches. Think with that neighbor finally gone, will try again next year. Community plots, if available in an area, run about $40 plot. Sure wish some of these churches can legally be allowed to donate portions of their lawns for community gardens.

      Kinder eggs are a waste of money, especially since at the stores, foodstamps monies are recognized as the equivalent of a dollar bill. My kid now aged 40, remembers when on foodstamps and a bus system we relief on a lot. No junk or non-nutritious foods to be purchased with the paper foodstamps. Told her that was hard earned taxpayers money and most don't qualify, lived life on both sides. We had an obligation to eat healthy, and not put the taxpayers paying for poor health choices twice at the doctor's office. Rarely, I needed to stop at the store on long buses. Didn't want to deal with messy fruit. Back then, some nutrition bars did not qualify for foodstamps, yet candy and chips did qualify, had to just in, ' give in purchase a few candy bars until we got home so her hands were clean on the bus and she was not with a growling stomach. She has toddlers to teens now, her hubby makes good money, came from a wealthy family that never taught him how to budget. Was impressed with my daughter straight out of highschool math and budgeting skills. Until then, he thought people on welfare were stupid. Of course, I have stood in long lines, glancing at their shopping baskets with all kinds of too many products of unhealthy food choices,. Sometimes her family does go on a bit of junk food binges, usually busy schedules, but they are all happier once their mom gets back on track with healthier food choices that each of her family seems to enjoy. Also, I have had to scrimp and save. Enjoy using my gifted used blender, crockpot and rice cooker. Am using the rice cooker for boiled eggs. Scrimped and saved with the purchasing extra produce, and to freeze some off. Learned to make stock. Grocery rotisserie and fried chicken are cost effective, as I freeze the bones off for a crockpot stock. Extra produce on sale such as tomatoes, I buy extra. Bits and pieces are the extra, I can cut up to add to a can of soup or stock. My apartment freezer small and I am slowly running out of food management space. Scrimped and splurged a few months ago. Am still on a learning curve, but ending up to be satisfied at the sight of foods, includes dehydrated carrots, celery which I store in baby food and spice jars. Not appealing to the eyes, once dehydrated and powdered. A, mostly adding to salads, soups, stocks and salads. Lots to learn, includes brining vegetables, am not into canning. So much work to learn, scrimp and save. Will never get rich off of these food management techniques, but lots of effort not to waste. Recently purchased a food saver, but only for some longer term use items. Will stick with baggies for the fridge and a short freeze off. Am having limited success, maybe it's a new brand of baggies I need. And cucumbers and watermelons are not suggested for foodsaver longer term freezing.

    How are energy drinks a necessity?
    I was behind someone yesterday in an expensive CONVENIENCE store getting 2 Lance meat and cheese snacks, 2 Jubba bubba chewing gum packs and 2 Otis spunkmeyer cookies. How are these necessities? This person was dressed in fine clothes and got into an SUV better than what I drive. WTF?!?
    What happened to incentivizing people to get better jobs to get off assistance? Our system is creating a generation of dependents.

    • @Dawly0000
      @Dawly0000 Год назад +2

      I certainly wouldnt buy energy drinks or cookies because I think sugar is bad for you. IDK what Lance meat is, if its meat, then that is an essential. cheese snacks? High protein, fills you up, great to put in kids lunch boxes. Gum, if you have gut problems chewing on gum actually produces good bacteria and relieves you of issues, also some people quit chewing tobacco this way. Maybe the SUV was a rental, had an Uber driver pick me up in a Tesla, could not stress enough it was not his. Fine clothes? You can find nice clothes at thrift shops, maybe they were old clothes but the person kept them nice, thats what they did in the 1940's, they would have fine clothes, but they'd keep them nice, not a lot of clothes but the ones they did have were nice. You never know somebody's situation, so theres a few scenerios for you to think of

    Tops Grocery Store is the only Grocery Store I know of that does not allow you to buy cold subs with EBT. They say that they cannot sell cold subs on EBT. They actually have signs up that state that they will not sell cold subs with EBT. Basically I thought that all grocery stores follow the same rules. Maybe someone should go and train them on the uses of EBT.

There're better options when trying to make your SNAP benefits last until the next time it's reloaded. Still, it's WAY cheaper than going to a sushi bar/restaurant. I'd consider it a rare treat that's healthier than a lot of snacks IMO.

Usually, it's a larger container of lemonade or other juices on sale. This is my on the go should I be with on outing or shoppings with her and the grandkids. About the same price as a 2 liter of soda. Healthier. Once I get home, I will add water as I go along drinking it. Cuts down on sugars and calories. There is a Starbucks, but none of their drinks meets either my cash or EBT food stamp budgets. Long lines and the drinks are not pure fruit, lots of overpriced chemical flavourings.

    Most will allow prepared foods such as cold hoagies, but not hot foods, however one can simple ask if they'll warm it for you... That's a hit or miss depending on employee and if it's busy say rush hour 😉

      Think for a nickel or so, after purchase of a cold food, then they can legally microwave.
