Well, my job is over now. (I was working on a political campaign, and the election was November 4.) One of my bosses had to come pick me up and take me home every day. But they've moved on to other things now, mostly in other states.
I'm on the waiting list for better housing, but it could be 5+ years before I get anything. Because I need an accessible apartment (I can't do stairs on a daily basis, so it has to be first floor or in a building with an elevator), the wait might be even longer. I can't afford to move until that comes through because I'm getting my current apartment for less than market value. Everything that's on the bus lines is WAY out of my price range.
My city councilor is looking into the bus route issue for me, but he told me he's not getting anywhere with it. The transit authority covers two counties and multiple towns, so our city council doesn't have sole jurisdiction over them.
I've truly exhausted all the resources available. There just aren't enough services in my area.
