My name is Peter Fillmore
Update!! 10/11/17 - It is looking good for me getting the job, of course now there is the background check which takes a week and then the 4-week first paycheck waiting
Lol well, I'll keep doing online surveys, and fix-it jobs as I can get them but I'm still left in an awful spot. Those who have donated to me and sent me positive wishes you have been amazing. If you know others who might be able to help or can share this posting with your social media I would be grateful. I'm so close now just need to hold on until the actual paychecks start coming in but have 1/2 rent and bills at critical lateness before then. Again bless and thank you all!
Today (10/06/2017) I applied for another grants for assistance and was disqualified due to my response of not having employment. I feel this was not entirely fair in this case as I am doing any jobs (chores, handyman, fixing computers, etc.) for people that I can, I post my services on local online bulletin boards as well. I also sell things for people on consignment to earn extra money. I am actively applying for and interviewing for jobs, however, keep getting vague rejection letters and emails. I have been unemployed for well over a year and have a hard time even getting interviews because of a DUI on my record from 6 or 7 years ago. I suffer from depression and this last year has been the hardest of my life. I have gotten to a point a of despair and feeling of hopelessness that makes even getting out of bed in the morning a challenge.
I have beautiful twin daughters that are 5 years old and the light of my life. I have only one friend left and he is struggling as well and not the best place to turn for support of any kind. As my ex-wife receives some assistance from the state I am ineligible for any assistance through the State of Utah and unemployment has denied me. With not much in the way of a support system it truly feels like the world has turned its back on me. I am trying to keep positive and keep going but I am just so tired of rejection and solitude. I apologize if I'm spilling my guts to you here but I really have nothing and no one. My gas has been disconnected for 6 months. my power will be shut off any day and by the end of this month, I'm not sure I'll be able to convince my landlord to extend me another month. I am facing homelessness and I am very scared.
I only eat on average 1.5 meals every 2 days so that the little money I earn from side jobs I can use to make sure my daughters have all the food they need when they are here on the weekends. So please, if you could possibly find it in your hearts to help me in any way that you can, be it financialy, with food or clothing for me and the children, help landing a job or even a kind word it really would mean so so much. I am not a lazy person nor am I a bad person. I am a good hearted father who has had a very rough couple of years and really needs to catch a break. If you can't help I will listen to any other suggestion you have. I am desperate and I do not qualify for anything it seems; am I to just waste away because I don't fit into anyone's list? I don't know what will happen to me with Utah winter coming.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and I thank you in advance for any assistance that you can render.
Sincerely,
Peter Fillmore
