About two months ago I lost my job (actually, my temp assignment ended) and went several weeks without income. I missed my rent, electric, and a most of my credit card payments. I started a new job a week ago that is very secure and long term, but I will be waiting until the 19th of this month for my first paycheck, which is too long to wait on bills. I received a legal notice from my apartment complex today saying that they filed for eviction and that I can stop the process if I pay within the week.
