    in this economy there’s no shame in it. A person could be in a two wage family and they still can’t find a place because there is a housing shortage. It’s like musical chairs.

    and hugs for being so caring 🤗

      Definitely no shame in it. These days more so than ever.

      He’s got a really good attitude about it all. Well kept, in good spirits, and generally seems to have his head screwed on right.

      Really impressed that the labour hire agency gave him a chance instead of putting him in the too hard basket.

        That’s such a nice thing you did for him.

        Being in a not such a nice spot myself I appreciate that others are still helping people with things out of the goodness of their own heart.

          I still feel shit that I can’t do more. Better than nothing but yeah.

          We grew up at risk of homelessness and my early adult life was on the edge.

          Growing up, if it wasn’t for generous hand-me-downs, public housing, and Centrelink, my life would have ended up on a completely different course.
