oh lawd. *eye roll* Please don't waste your time anymore with military recruiter. You are physically unable to commit and you have already stated you do drugs. Just. Don't.

Txt, you really need to get your life together. Time to grow up and be the adult you should be. You should have been saving money all this time. If you don't have money to save, and money to pay back grandma for vehicle, then you shouldn't even be buying drugs anyway.

I admire your confidence, but, in my experience, the drug testing usually takes place before the start date, so you will need to plan for that. Many companies will not even officially extend an offer until you have passed a drug test, so take that into consideration.

If you really want the best chance at a job in this job market, you need to be able to pass a drug test and start a job ASAP. Unless you have some unique skill or training that makes you extremely marketable, there are just too many competitors that are ready, willing, and able to work immediately.

Two incomes? Last I heard you had kicked BF to the curb and he wasn't providing an income anyway.

How about you let him buy his own vehicle?

You do realize that most places with a drug testing policy will have random drug tests right?

Not to mention that most hiring managers know what's up. A person who can't start or take a drug test for a month after an interview will raise some red flags. JMHO.

So to summarize:

1) You have no post-high school education, and you've been in entry level jobs for 11 years, none of which have lasted more than a year or 2, but now the big prospect is just gonna happen without any further education and while you continue to smoke weed regularly?

2) You left CO because of the high cost of living.

3) You moved to TN to help your GM. I never hear anything about that. Did you help her?

4) You have lived rent free all the time you've lived in TN but have no savings?

5) You decided to get a pitbull while a renter??????????????????????

6) Your BF has never had a decent job, does nothing but smoke weed and play videogames, has no education, doesn't have his own car but now magically has great job prospects??????????

7) You have chronic health issues following a car accident that was your fault, but you imagine that you will sue someone and win big bucks????????

8) You have no car, and owe your GM money for the car you crashed.

Did I miss anything?

Get your **** together txt, this list of accomplishments is a trainwreck.

You are crazy if you think this dream job is going to wait for you for a month. You haven't paid rent in, what, like a year. There is zero excuse for not having money saved.
