Better start doing some surveys for cash.

Preferably something that doesn't involve me waiting a week for money to come in, I may as well sit around and do nothing all week and just wait for the paycheck than do that shit.

>>457722
Find a temp job that pays by the day.

>>457725
Where to look? I'm already working and going to school, I just need something to get my by this week.

>>457722
I don't know what you're talking about. Some sites pay what you earn in 24-48 hours of meeting the minimum payout.

>>457729
the ones I've encountered take 3 - 5 business days before I see money. There would be no point in doing surverys if I'm still going to starve for 3 - 5 days.

Let old men touch you for money.

why not donate some blood? I'm sure someone else can have it that doesn't whine so much...

When I have over 3k in bills to pay in the next week on top of having no money for food or gas to get to and from work/school, I don't think that's whining but a shitty situation I'm trying to get out of, faggot.

>do some online surveys
I've done that route in the past, not enough money and takes far too long to see any money
>beg for money
the last thing I want to do
>pray
okay.

I just set up a small odd job with some random. Going to go to a store and return some clothing for a dude and going to get paid 20 bucks for it.

>>457752
>pray

Speaking of, you could hit up your local Methodist or Catholic church and maybe they'll help you. Of course you'll have to help them a bit though.

>>457756
I wouldn't mind helping them, I just wonder if they'd be willing to part ways with cash

Food bank? You could always "volunteer" at a soup kitchen and neck soup on the sly.

OP - Why is taking so long for you to get paid? I have never worked anywhere that made me wait a month to get paid?

>>457868
According to HR, my first employment date was a day after the payroll deadline. So basically I had to work last month and this month without a dime to my name.

>>457752
>>sell your car
>Live in a large city, that's suicide.

Must not be a large enough city.

>>457752
>doesn't want to beg for money
>making thinly veiled "pls gib mini" threads on /biz/

If you really want quick money go on Craigslist and look for odd jobs like helping someone move their furniture or something. Its an easy $20-50 that will let you eat. Every suggestion that's been given to you so far, you have brushed off. Why are you SSO lazy? Maybe you deserve the situation your in (assuming it isn't a lie to garner sympathy)

>>457877
I'm not selling my car, that's fucking stupid.
I've done surveys before and it's 2 hours work for maybe 5 bucks that comes in 3 - 5 days after it's put into my paypal account
I'm not letting old men touch me for money.
The only thing I brushed off that is totally possible is donating blood/plasma which I can't because of tattoos.

>Why are you SSO lazy?

Go fuck yourself.

Your large city must suck then. It's called public transportation and most cities have it.

>>457885
What is a 30 minute drive to campus quadruples on public transit.
I have only 30 minutes to get from work -> school and school -> work.
That's not a feasible option.

>>457887
And before someone tries to say some bullshit, I had to take public transportation when I got here so I know how long of a commute that is, I had to do that shit for almost 2 years.

>>457896

That's a rough commute.

Well, anyway it looks like you've zeroed in on the solution. You have to quit school for the time being and sell your car.

>>457715
>get food form food bank
>walk to school/work
If it's just a week you can deal with it

>>457901
I may do food bank thing.
I can't walk to school/work
There isn't enough time in my schedule for that.

>>457904
OP /biz/ isn't going to help you, i'm pretty sure 98.9% of the population here is assholes.

find a waiting job - tips

go to a construction zone and check if they need any grunt work for some pay at end of day.

set up a lemonade stand

>>457715

What computer-based skills do you have?

>>457872

I am 100% certain you work for a chinese company that forces you to check-in with a time card.

My only /adv/ice to you is to not buy food but to 'ya know' go to walmart/grocery place every day and you know where this is going.

As for money, craigslist and 'ya know'

Same day consulting works too

>>457715
rummage through garbage near trainstations and other crowded places. they always have a bunch of bottles you can turn in.

I thought of another idea which will allow you to keep your car.

You need to do some street racing.

Don't go to school for a week. Walk to work. Visit a foodbank for food. Sell/pawn anything you can cheaply for a quick sale.

These are the only real options available to you.

Now I'm going to wait for you to give shitty reasons why none of this is possible.

>>457943
>pay 5k a semester to not go to school
No thanks.
>Walk to work
Yeah, I'd like to see you try that
>Pawn anything
I don't have anything worth pawning.

Been there fucking done that.

>>457715
Better start hitting the streets at night and "hustling" like a nigger. The other day I overheard some nigs talk about how a charged spark plug annihilates car windows, anyone know the physics behind it? Or you can always follow the premier advice that /biz/ gives on this matter...you know what it is.

Yes they are a ripoff but if you know you will get paid soon then you can get the money you need with minimal risk.

This is really shitty and you absolutely need to make sure it's a one-time thing, but it looks like a payday loan is your most plausible option.

You'll get ripped off, but you need some money now. Just remember that making payday loans a habit will fuck you in the ass and bite the bullet this time.

>>457956
Sell the drum set on facebook or craigslist.

I don't think that would work since he technically has no proof of income

>being this american

Couldn't you have stretched shit out until pay day? Did you even know when you'd get your first pay?

ffs it's not difficult, I've been getting paid monthly for the last ten years. Even at 19 it wasn't hard to plan shit weeks ahead and make my coin last...

OP, the fact that you are in this position means you need to re-evaluate your entire life setup. What the fuck are you spending money on that you've maxed out your card? How long were you unemployed?

You need to make sure to have ~3-6 months worth of expenses saved up and covered before you spend your money on anything else, like that fucking drum set.

>>457956

but you can pawn the drum set and then pay them back when you get paid no?

Steal from grocery stores. If you get caught, keep the total price of goods under $50 or whatever the cutoff for your state is for a misdemeanor.

Play drums for money.

If you're not good enough, I suspect you're too lazy.

>>457956
Hey, look man, if you want people to sympathize with you, dont be an ass about it when they give you suggestions. Youve shrugged off every suggestion thus far, and there isnt a whole lot more anyone can suggest for you.
Theres no magical, easy way to get a quick grand to hold you over, unless you have something you can sell in a day for 1k, youre just up the creek. Call friends and family and see if anyone will spot you. Alternatively, if your job isnt paying you when they should (as in; how it was laid out in your contract), call the department of employment in your state, because its illegal as fuck to withhold paychecks.

But thats all you got bro, so stop being a shit about it to the people who are trying to help you, and either take the suggestions, or leave man.

Good luck man, really.

>>457715
>My card is maxed out and I have 5 dollars in my checking account.

Jesus Christ, what the fuck are you doing? How reckless are you to blow through that much money?

payday advance loans exist for this reason

>>457715
sell shit on ebay.
CHATURBATE.

>>457956
Look, you're in a shitty situation. There are no good options for you. You need to pick the least shittiest.

You're right, I wouldn't walk to work because I didn't get myself into a terrible situation like you did...

I normally feel for people in shitty situations, but you come across as a massive dickhead, so I don't really care.

Have fun not eating bro

Is 13 miles one way a lot? I was thinking about getting a bicycle for commuting too.

>>458931
By mileage? No. If it's 13mi of stop lights, yes that's a long time. After 13mi you would probably want to shower and change clothes even after casual speeds. Your work might have showers. This is all assuming not much elevation change.

look, i hate to advise this, but desperate times call for desperate measures. get a payday loan for a few bucks ($75/$100) to get you through till payday and pay it back as soon as you get paid. you will probably pay $140 - $150 for $100, but you need money now and they can provide same day or within 24 hrs in most cases.

>>458880
This guy speaks the truth
There's not going to be any magical way for you to make a few bucks without any repercussions

If it's food that you need you should go dumpster diving.

Gourmet grocery stores throw out a shitload of good food at the end of each day and you will always at least find good bread. If you're really lucky you'll find a bag of vegetables or seal salads.

go to a farmer's market at the end of the day and ask if they're tossing anything.

>>459882
Don't forget to wash it...

Don't be a pussy, go talk to your boss and tell him you need money now.

>>457715
I have a network of short-term lenders waiting to help you anon.

Churches have free food.
