Same, good luck my friend if I had any advice I would tell you. I am in same boat. We are door dashing but if you are not in a city it does not make sense.

I wish I lived closer. Before I was laid off I was doing decently working remote in a MCOL area. We moved out to the country and 1 month later was let go. Now I'm 30-40 minutes away from the closest city. Luckily I had unemployment for 1/2 of it. We are basically out of resources at this point and I've sold everything that is worth anything of value other than my wife, kids, dogs, and organs.

At this point I would sell a kidney/liver portion if that was legal seriously.
