<prompt> Human: I have recently returned to the states, to my grandmothers house in texas. I am 20 miles away from the nearest town. I used my savings on family issues, and have recently split from my family.I have nothing to my name at the moment, and I need to fix this. I have housing and meals, thats it. I dont have any credit history since I was out of country for so long.There is TDCJ, and other jobs in the area but I dont have a car. I do have a recommendation from a deceased sheriff for when I was a dispatcher before I left to move back in with my family. I also have certs in web design, java, A that Im trying to monetize and find work online, but its quite difficult. Ive resorted to trying to do labor in the retirement home but they have contractors with the home owners association with just about everything lawn, computers, cars, etc. Im currently just browsing craigslist and looking over odd jobs.I really, really need some kind of advice. I was thinking of getting a credit card or something to buy a 2-3 thousand dollar car just so that I can get moving with a real job.  <response>: Do not go into debt before you even have a job, so much could go wrong. If you are desperate for money, start out in fast food- they are always hiring. Keep looking for work without putting yourself in a hole. Once you have saved some money then you can start looking for a car and better work.
