"In 2014 Microsoft decided it could do a better job if it discarded a lot of software testers. This bright new dawn was lauded at the time by Peter Bright at Ars Technica in a piece titled "How Microsoft dragged its development practices into the 21st century". Testers were soooo 20th century.

The previous month, Microsoft had laid off many of its Windows testers."

Well this explains a few things

financial problems, req for help 

everything donated will go towards car insurance ($230) and gas money (about $50, but won't be necessary for a bit)

excess will be used to pay off a portion of my credit card (which was racked up by two necessary purchases (new car battery and some cheap shoes) just days before I lost my source of income)

if there is somehow any left after that I will pay it forward and/or refund some

financial problems, req for help 

quickly approaching 2 months no income (aside from donations which have helped me stay afloat so far)

I'm quickly approaching the point where I'll need to fundraise for being able to continue driving (necessary for finding jobs among other things) for another month if I cannot find a job by sometime next month.

So... i actually don't know what else to say, but please help if you can.

I'm also considering a paypal pool instead of this...

catposting in the morning to take my mind off not being able to shower yet and the houes being full of noise and workmen

TIL I occasionally reflexively typo "would" as "owould"
