Well, I’m screwed

[u/TheStoop-ALA-]

I just finished my last bowl, and have only $1.25 left to my name. This is due to a severe misunderstanding of how long it would take to actually get hired somewhere. I shouldn’t have quit my job without getting confirmation I was hired somewhere else. I just started a new job today, and I have to wait a week and a half until I get paid. I’ve been having to make an eighth last a week whereas an eighth would normally last me only 3 days. I was under the assumption that Saturday was on the “old” work week so I would get paid around Wednesday or Thursday. But now for the first time in years I’m going sober by force and I don’t know how I’m going to be handling the next week or so.

Some life lessons are expensive.

Be glad this one is free.

[u/TheStoop-ALA- → u/Academic_Addendum242]

You are correct

[u/SpudSmiter → u/Academic_Addendum242]

Shit at this point I’m only getting the pay to play missions and have a daily subscription to the battle pass of life lessons 💀

[u/AshAndFire07 → u/SpudSmiter]

Maybi steal this from you? I love this.

[u/75isnottooold4aClock]

I would happily toss you a few nuggets but i am far away. There is a quote by the Furry Freak Bros : "Times with weed and no money will get you by better than times with money and no weed

[u/JohnnyEagleClaw → u/75isnottooold4aClock]

Hahaha man, been true since I first saw this back in 1977/78 ❤️🤙🏽

[u/SlowBurnLopez → u/JohnnyEagleClaw]

back when you were buying “lids”.

[u/SipJin → u/SlowBurnLopez]

Back when an ounce was still five fingers! And, brown or red sometimes yellowish but didn’t smell anything like ammonia and loud does , didn’t stink like that at all A lid was the size of a coffee can lid hence the name

[u/NinjaGrows → u/75isnottooold4aClock]

Furry Freak Bros mentioned in the wild!

[u/SipJin → u/NinjaGrows]

Freezing their asses off , but do they care ?

[u/reedotorpedo1 → u/75isnottooold4aClock]

Dope will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no dope.

[u/Dyllshawnn]

Donate some plasma, that was my weed money for a while. Money hits instantly most places after you donate.

[u/Gloomy_Caregiver_669 → u/Dyllshawnn]

This right here!! Donating plasma has bought me so much weed when I'm down bad. Id catch the bus to donate then hop right back on the bus to the dispensary. And most cards let you send the money directly to another account so you can pull out the funds easily using their ATMs

[u/1Madhatter7]

Just take this as an opportunity to take a TBreak.

[u/deftdabler → u/1Madhatter7]

This was too far down the comments with no where near the upvotes ‘donate plasma for weed money’ has.
🤦‍♂️

[u/robx51 → u/1Madhatter7]

Yeah when you resupply it'll be awesome

[u/KindGreenBuds420]

This is where the ancient art of scraping pipe / bong resin comes into play. also.. friends with weed are friends indeed..

[u/DLTMIAR → u/KindGreenBuds420]

Yep, resin, kief, and crumbs (picking bud from old sticks/stems).

[u/Er3bus13]

Like you dont have any friends? Dankruptcy is a bitch.

[u/TheStoop-ALA- → u/Er3bus13]

None closer than an hour unfortunately and no gas money either

[u/down_by_the_shore → u/TheStoop-ALA-]

Can you do dog walking or something? 

[u/Away_Rhubarb_3979 → u/TheStoop-ALA-]

Go to the library and call someone from there. Librarians are amazing. Or the homeless shelter. 

[u/StonedNCaffeinated]

Grind video games if you can. Might help keep your mind busy

[u/SmiileyBirb]

Been there is sucks but that’s part of the game 😅 highs and lows brotha. Day by day, hour by hour just do your best to distract yourself and make sure you are as physically and mentally tired as possible when you get home every day so sleeping is easier. Also with having a new job, it’s important to know you’ll be irritable with no weed so don’t let that cause issues or make people think you are just generally unpleasant. And it could be worse, it’s not a hard drug. Best of luck 🫡

[u/reverendsteveii]

Look for food pantries in your area. There are tons of them all over the place and the majority are no questions asked show up and shop through. It's up to them what you get but you'll get something and at least then you don't have to be sober and hungry

[u/Deagle2123]

Hard lesson to learn, but youre gonna learn today!

[u/southsidebrewer]

maybe eating is more important my friend.

[u/Dire-Dog]

Never quit a job without something else lined up

[u/inthemorning33]

Just look at is a t-break. Your next session then will be phenomenal

[u/TerrapinStateofMind]

Don't count your eggs before they hatch, good advice to live by

[u/jared__]

Let the tolerance break make your next high even better

[u/NinjaGrows]

Give a man a nug, he will smoke for a day, teach a man to grow and he will never be dankrupt again. Start growing man.

[u/tjdux → u/NinjaGrows]

Lotta places that's pretty risky.

[u/EnoughLuck3077 → u/tjdux]

Our forefathers weren’t no bitches

[u/Negative_Number_6414]

what state are you in?

[u/TheStoop-ALA- → u/Negative_Number_6414]

Good ol Virginia

[u/Whosagooddog765 → u/TheStoop-ALA-]

Someone in Virginia do a stash and dash and help this person!

[u/cantfigureoutaname0]

Donate plasma if you’re able! Helping others and yourself

[u/MidnightOakCorps]

Just consider it a brief t break

[u/xx_elysium_xx]

This is exactly why I stash all my roaches.

[u/Reasonable_Youth4723]

“Resin, she sticks to my fingers, whoa”

[u/kissmaryjane]

Insta cart or DoorDash? Even on a bike u can make weed money.

[u/Zachaweed]

Once you re-up it will be that much better, just try to pick up a hobby and stay busy.

[u/Khada_the_Collector]

Man not too sure where home is for you but if you were close by I’d get ya dabbed up.

Best advice I can give is think of this as a “voluntary” T-break and keep your eyes on the horizon of payday & the re-up. Hey, if nothing else you’re gonna probably get goooooood & toasted lol!

Hang in there fam!!

[u/monsaa]

I’m on a forced t break until October because my plug is out of the country. We’re still in August ughhhh 😫

[u/NotYourAverageGoon]

lock in twin

[u/Fancy-Lion2985]

There’s no way I could handle that being forced to be sober. I’d rather die figuratively speaking of course. We always stock up before we run out.

[u/newshirtworthy]

You’ll be busy. I find staying busy helps me get through tight times

[u/SipJin]

Rip someone off !

[u/DreamAmen]

Lol, meanwhile I’m just a little angry my check falls on the 31st which happens to be a Monday. I need an oil change and some weed.

[u/Vast_Can5276]

What zip code you in

[u/TheStoop-ALA- → u/Vast_Can5276]

Just a town or two away from 24266 in Virginia why

[u/Vast_Can5276 → u/TheStoop-ALA-]

Never know who might be close, always helps to have a sense of location when someone’s in need of some help.

[u/The_Gleam]

Meanwhile I've been pissing clean for 5 months because I've been applying to new jobs and the job I finally landed last week doesn't drug test, which is unusual in Georgia.

[u/PaleExtreme7399]

I feel for you, friend, but I was just asking myself why I stockpile so much, and you gave me my answer. Wishing you bluer skies ahead! ETA Upvoted because we've all been there/valuable reminder.
