I am always on the look out for new ways to find survival jobs. Today I went to Craig’s List and I found www.expressemergencyagency.org. They need people many different types of jobs.
Check it out,

The Resource Girl has worked a ton, now she is going to have some fun.
In June watch for exciting updates about the diversity that this city offers.
Random tips: I found a chinese place on 34th, near the Wendy’s close to 8th Ave, where you can buy 5 items to eat for 5 bucks! Starbucks has a new combo offer, look for that.
Random things: Cock Roaches are gross. If you are thinking of moving here, it is one of the hazards.
More randomness: We did not have a Spring this year, the weather has been horrible.

Okay so if any of you were wondering where did the Resource Girl go…well she was taking her own advice and was working hard. Hostessing for the first time, (if I could have worn flats, wow I could have stayed for months, but after nights of crying from the shooting pain in my legs from the high heels, I moved on), doing research…mmm…yeah that was interesting, if you know me personally you know just how interesting…ho hum, yawn yawn and this week it was back to what I do best i.e. being super silleeeeeee and they pay meeee. Yes I was in Times Square in a onesy promoting www.sleeptonight.com. It was warm and since the weather here has sucked mama cow teets, was greatly appreciated.
Expect more info about this crazy, wonderful, nutty city, very very soon. I promise to never got this long without writing. I promise.
Ciao,

Sometimes in life you need a change of pace, something to put the pep back in your step. This weekend was not an easy weekend for me. Valentine’s Day is for those who are cherished, apart from my mother’s love, that would not be me.
However I am not one to let things keep me down and I found a mood-booster. The Lobster House on City Island. If you have lived here for 100 years or you have just moved, City Island is not to be missed.
The Lobster House provided us with enough food for three meals, most of us took a goody bag home. Lobster, clams, mussels, corn on the cob, clam chowder, salad, dessert, port wine and champagne. The service was amazing JoJo the owner struck a conversation with one of my friends about cars and within seconds she was presented with a purple challenger (whatever that is). Oscar our waiter was attentive, energetic and enjoyed giving us our lemon shower to cleanse our hands between courses. All of this set us back 40 bucks each.
Good times had by all. You can get there on the 6 train, then you need to switch to a bus or you can rent a car with www.drivemint.com. We did just that and it made it like a mini-road trip. Check out www.cityisland.com
Simple pleasures like dipping lobster tail in thick butter can beat the winter blues or in this case the Valentine’s blues.
Ships Ahoy,

Okay, have you heard about Random Acts of Kindness? People choose to give something or money to raise the moral of the people. Well yesterday the morale of so many New Yorkers, and tourists, was raised by receiving 50 bucks, however I have searched the world over for this website and I can not find it. So it makes me think, was this a publicity stunt or a simple moral booster? Was this a college students final project for school?
I have no idea, but I will tell you if it was just for a morale boost, it worked for me for sure. 100 bucks for hanging out with a friend on-line for 2 hours, not too shabby.

The most exciting part of the BailoutBooth.com is the opportunity to “Get Paid Today For What You Sell Tomorrow.” BailoutBooth.com offers an interest free “Click Cash Loan” that allows members to receive money immediately, while their stuff is being sold. The loan can be kept until the item sells or up to two weeks, then pay it back. No deal of this kind has ever been available online.

So the line is closed at Times Square for the free money. Sorry about that. Also the name of the website is not Bailout.com, there are more words. I am going to find out the rest and update it as soon as I do that.
Sit tight,
RG
Okay people I can absolutely not make this stuff up. This morning as the snow poured around me and I was pushing yet another product, a friend sent a text, come to Times Square Free $50 bucks! First of all I wasn’t sure who sent the text and I thought it was promo work for the whole day and the pay was $50 bucks, but it wasn’t.
Are you ready? Are you in the city or can you get here tomorrow? Line up at the Charmin Store, next to Virgin Mega Store in Times Square tomorrow morning or whenever you can get there, the earlier the better and tell your story why you need the money. Everyone will get the $50 bucks, but the sadder or more important your need for money is, the more money you are going to get.
I don’t want to tell my sad story here, but it did earn me $100 dollars when most of the people earned the regular $50. So tomorrow if you are in the city, why not go and pick up an extra $50 up to $5000.
You may be thinking, what is the catch, what is going on, what are they promoting? Well, good question, every good business idea has to have a competitor and for the longest time the only real place to sell your used stuff would be on eBay, right? Well now there is competition, Welcome To America Baby!! www.bailoutbooth.com is a place where you make money instantly for listing your items.
Crazy this town I call home,

I try to keep it real on this site. One of the problems of living in NYC is that many buildings are old. I live in a building that is 100 years old. We are currently not having any heat and sporatically no hot water. Tenants that band together can make a difference but it is a headache just the same. So if you are going to move here, remember to do your best to get into a good building, if you can’t afford one, well just be aware that there are some of the issues that you will face.
If you live here already, keep calling 311 as often as you can to make your complaints. They have heard ME and are sending an inspector on Saturday. Of course when you ask a dog to roll over to impress your friends, they never do, who knows if my heat will be working when they come to vist, who knows.

Right now until Sunday, you can walk into Starbuck’s Coffee Shop and pledge that you will give 5 hours of service to your community, on the spot they will give you a coffee. I heard Ryan Seacrest saying this, this morning, on his radio show. Then they give you a website that connects you to places to serve in your community.
