<prompt> Human: Im a 27 year old male with a 6 year old. His mother and I are separated. I have spent the last 10 years as a career server at many different restaurants in the city that I live in. I was making pretty good money in the industry, but have recently had to quit that profession. Going back full time is not an option.I am currently in the process of building a new career in the construction industry, however, it is coming with some growing pains. The main issue being that I make considerably less money than I used to. To the tune of 1000 less a month.As a direct result, I have blown through all of my savings and am currently behind on almost every bill except electricity and, as of today, daycare. I have 3 dollars to my name, a phone that is currently shut off, and I owe my apartment complex 1100 dollars in fines.I fear that if I do not get caught up on these bills soon, I will lose everything, including my home and my son. I am in desperate need of additional income to bolster my finances, however, the job that I currently work for does not offer extra hours and due to my custody agreement, I can only work every other weekend which makes it impossible to find weekend jobs.Any and all advise would be greatly appreciated.Edit: I have no assets to speak of and an average check is about 350 a week paid weekly. I pay 650 dollars towards rent, 105 towards my cellphone, health insurance for my son is 125, electricity is around 75,300 for daycare, utilities are around 50, plus food and gas. The bills Im behind on include the 1100 to my apartment complex as mentioned above, 220 towards my cellphone, and I also need to get my registration and inspection done on my car before this months insurance expires since I dont think Ill be able to pay for that this month.  <response>: Ditch the cellphone for a prepaid plan and a cheaper phone, you cant afford that shit. Sell the phone, hopefully you can recoup what you owe. Are you receiving Foot stamps? Depending on where your located the kid at least should qualify for CHIP. Most utilities have assistance programs to help customers having issues. You need to contact your apartment complex if you havent already. Communication, especially communication you initiate can go a long way to getting their patience while you sort things out. Find a local church in your area and see if they can help offer assistance with food, navigating govt assistance. They might even be able to hook you up with local mechanic to help get your car inspected and registered.
