I still belong to the other substitute teacher placement agency, but this agency bought the other agency out. So, I don't know if I will lose my job with them as default? Also, I can substitute teach in other school districts that don't use either agency. But, those two districts only pay their subs once every 3 weeks instead of bi-weekly, or weekly.
I could use some ideas of what kind of jobs I should apply for. Since I had difficulty finding consistent temp work this summer, I can't rely on the temp agencies to find me something quick either. And, since I applied for emergency assistance once already, I can't anymore. I have to wait 18 months before I'd be eligible again. I'm sure I can get food stamps with no income since its income based. I'm just worried about rent, car payment, car insurance, etc. and I don't want to file bankruptcy.
I envy people who have stable, full-time jobs.

The Mighty lists several remote/work from home jobs on their website. If you search "remote jobs" a few articles will pop up.
NOW I will say be mindful that these jobs have a level of stress when you are dealing with upset customers, but it's a decent job in the crunch, just not for long term--at least not for me.
if you are into teaching: Edmentum is an education company that offers online courses and teaching materials, and currently lists 100 open virtual teaching positions across the U.S. Applicants must be certified to teach the subject they’re applying for at the secondary level in the state they live. Subjects include French, English, Spanish, Sciences, Art and more.
I've seen something called VipKid as well.
Good Luck!
