I'm a Postal Worker Who Lost Work to COVID & an Injury! Please Help Me Keep My Internet!
My Story:
I'm a 56-year-old postal worker, but I've been out of work recently due to an injury and due to COVID. I got hurt on the job, so that leave of absence was covered, but while I was out, I used all my available paid leave. I came back and started working and was exposed to COVID, so I had to take time off of work to recover and isolate. Now, I've been out of work for an extended period of time and am really struggling with my financial situation.
As someone who lives paycheck to paycheck, it's difficult for me to deal with long periods where I don't have any income. Even though I'm better and have gone back to working more hours, I'm still struggling to catch up on all of the bills that I fell behind on. Right now, I'm worried about being able to pay my internet bill, so I'm asking for assistance with that.
Keeping my internet on is really important to me being able to keep my job. It's the only way that I have of staying in contact with my work. on top of that, it's the only way I can keep in touch with my family too. Losing my service would be difficult for me to overcome, so I would be very relieved and grateful for this assistance. This would also help me catch up on some of my other bills like my mortgage. Thank you all in advance for this extremely generous help, and I promise that I won't forget it.
