Wagie lament
Sounds bad. What the heck happened, champ? I'll break down his wall of text:
Lol unexpected but here goes. I'm management at a business supply store and I make $17/h while working 50-55 hours a week.
He's talking about Staples. When's the last time anyone has stepped in there?
So since I can't afford an obnoxiously small 500sqft 2 bedroom apartment for $1000-$1300/m I spend (usually) just under $1800 for this crack motel that's perpetually moist, loud, and rundown. EXCEPT I live in a college town with no car so our football games are back on so just for yesterday alone I was price gouged $280+ because quote “I can”. So I have recently had about $20 to get me thru the week.
Let me try to understand: this man does not have a car so he would prefer to live in a motel within walking distance. Motel rooms aren't much bigger; seriously I do not understand his logic at all 
“Why haven't you used our store share fund?” Probably because they basically told me to go frick myself twice already. What am I gonna do? Find a better paying job? Not around here. Move out of the city? I have no car and refuse to walk on the side of the interstate for miles on end (which I'd assume is illegal anyway and for a brown man in this shit hole of a C*NTtry I'd like to stay away from police) to get to the job that clearly hates the people that work there.
Poor man. Before you chuds get uppity: if you haven't caught on yet, he likes to make excuses for everything so invoking his race card is just eyerolling 
He's Irish/Mexican by the way 
Plus they still WANT not NEED you to make 3 TIMES the rent. THEY ARE EXPECTING PEOPLE WHO MAKE LAWYER MONEY TO WANT TO LIVE THERE.
Forgot about that rule 
I can sympathize with him here...well, it isn't much of a rule. I wonder if something else is afoot 
Again…. I'm not asking for the fricking world, just a tiny butt apartment I could call my “own”. Thanks for coming to my shitty rant lol at least feels good to get it out. I appreciate your time.
Sidenote: “how are you homeless if you're employed?” Was that an actual question? Or a little sass? Because honestly I see it either way lol
No comment. Maybe he wishes he has that Hotwheels money right about now? 
More comments
How long has he been in this situation? Not long from what I can tell; the first mention of homelessness was a couple months ago and older posts show pictures from what appears to be a garage. In this post, he is referring to himself and others; I could only find a mention of a future wife a couple years ago, which leads me to believe they moved in together at some point.
On that first mention of homelessness:
Yeah you're fricked. I doubt your income is the issue. Have you ever had a license? Bank account and credit??
These are all good questions
More on the woman:
Did you notice something? He's a huge stoner
Analysis
Moved in with his gf at some point
Is 29 years old and seems predisposed to work wagie jobs (previously at Family Dollar) (more rage
]Split up a few months ago and moved out
Trying to scrape by, using methods like ordering DoorDash
I think he is on the east coast and the county he lives in starts with a "P". He mentions Wawa in one comment, which appears to be a east coast chain, which leaves only six some states he could be in. Plus, he probably lives near a college. Why can't people redact private information properly?
Not very much is interesting about him in his other posts; just typical reddit-tier opinions.

$1800 will get you a small camper, crappy car, and a couple months at a campground. You can hire somebody to tow it or ask the seller if they'll transport it for $100. That or buy an older Winnebago and park it on the campsite. Crackheads on the West coast can find these things.
How do you even get two bedrooms in 500ft²? My garage is 784ft² and I couldn't see dividing it into two bedrooms, bathroom, and kitchenette.
The bedrooms in my house are rather small. One can fit a queen, the other a king, and one dresser each. Those plus the narrow bathroom are close to 400ft².
I love the Midwest. On $15/hr I covered mortgage (no housemates), newer well-equipped sedan, and name-brand food. Probably take about 20/hr in today's economy but still doable if you're getting OT consistently

Yeah especially if he's going to be a fricking Staples Manager. It's probably going to be a $17 hour job in Nebraska and the same in NY so might as well live where the CoL is half if that's all he aspires to be.
