<prompt> Human: I am a 22 F living in Utah. Just recently my boyfriend of 4 12 years and I broke up. He has a daughter so i told him to keep our rental home. Right now I am couch surfing. I foolishly called into my job twice in a row while still on my probational period and have just been fired. My account is -300 i get paid in a few days and will have maybe 400. My car and insurance is all i really need to pay for 250 altogether. However i need to fix my situation asap. Not sure where to start. I am applyingl for jobs like crazy and have decided. I just paid 375 for months rent before I got kicked out and have been considering asking my ex to reimburse me. I seriously feel so lost. I went from having a job and a family and a house to living out of my car. I have never been in this situation before. Please any advice on what would be the best course of action would be appreciated.  <response>: For the time being, I would recommend going to a staffing agency. Get a job doing data entry or even warehouse work while you try to land an apartment and get all your ducks in a row.Utahs unemployment rate is an envious 3.4 right now, which means its a sellers market when it comes to labor. If you can type on a keyboard, you can do data entry, and probably make more than you would at any kind of job that fires you for taking two days off.It sounds like this is a lot more than simply trying to find financial balance. If you started dating when you were 18, I imagine that a huge part of who you feel you are is wrapped up in the last four years, and you dont know how to be independent. That said, 22 is an excellent time to start learning, and some people start much later than that. Dont lose faith in yourself over this. You get to begin an exciting new challenge in learning what you can be, and youre young enough to take full advantage of it.You havent mentioned your education or what kind of jobs you feel qualified for. Are you college educated? If not, seriously look into it. At least consider getting an associates in something marketable, but definitely consider a four year education. A college degree is expensive, yes, but the numbers show that your employment and earning prospects are much higher in an increasingly service-oriented economy.If you do have a 4 year degree, approach your university to see if they host a job board, and if you can temp and hold out for fall, there will be a job fair. Your temp work will also help build long-term career skills which will make you more palatable to hiring companies.
