<prompt> Human: I am going to be kicked out of my house this coming Tuesday. I have a bit of a drug problem which I am currently working on, but my parents feel the best way to help me now is tough love. I have a part time job at a local grocery store and only get about 20 hours a week. I need to get another job or a better one. I also have no car or bike and live in upstate NY. I have no family I can stay with, but a girlfriend willing to help me a little in the short term. Any suggestions on what my first few steps should be would be nice. Thanks.  <response>: Take this from someone that went through some of the same things. No job is below you. Get a job washing dishes, or at a car dealership washing car maybe not in the winter though, just something that gets you some money to keep you on your feet. And as has been said, look into getting food stamps. To be honest, getting food stamps saved my life when I was at my lowest. Getting them was the one thing that changed my outlook on my life, and helped me to get my life back together.
