    I am on lifelong disability which means I get a guaranteed amount of money each month for life.

    No landlords will touch me, a person with a GUARANTEED INCOME.

    However, if you have a job, that you can get fired from or quit the next day, they’ll accept you. Blows my fucking mind.

    Btw, for anyone wondering, if I lose my job, the government will step in and give me money for my disability. If I have a job, they don’t give me money. If I have a shit job where I make a couple hundred per month, they’ll cover the difference. I don’t mooch off the government, but my point is that I’m lucky enough to have a safety net, and landlords are so dumb they run away from it.
