[quote=Anonymous]I am 56, when my kids were little I stayed home w/them while my husband worked + supported us. 
Then when kids started school, I went to Jr. College & earned my Associate of Science Degree.
Then got divorced after graduating and have worked as an in-home Nanny since 2010.
I initially was going to go to University after completing my A.S. to earn my Bachelor’s but once I got divorced then I had to work.

I have had about five families I worked for, and only two were willing to pay me on-the-books.
These two families I cannot use as job references because one passed away and the other moved overseas.

I am trying to find a suitable job right now to fully support myself, I live in low-income housing currently and am desperate to move out, into a regular apartment.
(Too much crime/drugs/etc.)

Because some of my other families did not want to pay me legally I unfortunately cannot use them on any job applications or resumes.

My DIL told me that I can only get hired at Walmart or McDonald’s but I have my A.S. plus I HAVE worked full-time the past fifteen yrs. so I think I can get something a little better paying than fast food?
Or is there no hope for me??
