“Homelessness is a Paycheck Away”

Good evening everyone,

I am like millions of other people who are hardworking individuals that believe you get where you are by doing the best to your ability.

I was at a job with Bell Helicopter, in August of 2006 my job was affected by a “cost reduction”. I thought I would have a job very quickly since I have 3 degrees, can do just about anything that anyone would ask me to do within reason. I did it with a smile. I filled out over 180 job applications and was told on many occassions since I worked for Bell that I was overqualified and that no one could afford me because Bell pays very well, regardless to what the jobs are. It was frustrating and I was unable to sleep all the way through the night. I was losing weight, my attitude was still staying positive but was taking a beating. As of today, I signed papers to finally go to work. My job won’t start until 1-27-07 and my first paycheck will come on 2-16-07. I had to take out part of my retirement to pay my house payment and keep my utilities on as well as put food on the table.

I would appreciate some type of assistance whatever it may be. However, I ask that you send me a mailing address so that when I get back on my feet, you will be repaid back. The job I took pays $11 less than what I was making so my budget will be tightened a great deal. If I can get my bills paid off, I can then concentrate on getting those individuals who have helped me to pay them back. I am very serious about this, I don’t want a hand out without me paying back those who have helped me. I need some assistance to get back on my feet, I don’t have anyone else to help, it is just me and my 10 year old.

The address is SM Forbes - PO Box 10234 - Amarillo, TX 79116.

Thank you for stopping and reading what I had to say. Have a good day and once again thank you.

SM Forbes

As if posting your scam once wasn’t enough. You posted it twice.

Excuse me… but this is the first time I have done this and I accidently posted it twice. I don’t know how to get rid of the 2nd one. And what is your deal?? Are you this big of a jerk all the time? Why are you on here, to harrass people? Is this how you get your thrills? You are a pretty sad case and must not have much of a life to be this ugly and rude to people that you don’t even know. Please stop, I don’t like this and I don’t know you and this is ridiculous for you to be harrassing me for no reason at all. If what I said offends you in my Posting, then why don’t you leave me alone and go harrass someone else.

By the way, the town you live in is over 200 miles from Bell Helicopter, Textron. Just out of curiosity, did you commute that 400 and something miles to work each day?
