I'm so, so sorry. I don't know what to say.

Workwise, look into temp agencies -- in particular if there are any that staff colleges and universities. They tend to jerk people around less than the ones that staff businesses. I got placed by a temp agency before I had any administrative experience, so you should try, too.

This sounds awful, but the businesses that are doing well now are collection agencies and companies that clean out foreclosed homes. It's not a pleasant job, but somebody has to do it. You could look into those.

See if there is a food bank in your area. I know you're more concerned about rent than food, but money is money.

I wish there was some way I could get you guys jobs. Or do something.
