Long story short, my mother has been laid off twice in the last 2 years due to companies downsizing.
I am trying to help point her in the right direction to get her a reliable income to help ease the stress.
She has been driving for UBER to help pay the bills, and although it is helping, it isn't cutting it.
She is a very self-motivated individual with an outstanding work ethic who instilled such values in me
and as such it hurts to see her and dad stressing on paying their bills. She is 60 but 100% fit and does not
look or act "senior". She works out frequently and is in outstanding health and physical shape.
That said, she fears that her age is what is keeping people from contacting her regarding her resume or
other job applications. She is using career builder, temp agencies, and is putting in applications on her
own as well. She has a 2 year associates degree from a college in Ohio (I know it sounds horrible but right off
hand I don't remember the college or the major). She has work experience as Sales and Inventory as
well as a sales order administrator for her previous 2 jobs (AT Systems tech, GARDA).
I am not asking for a handout, and I hate having to air her laundry. As a matter of fact, if I told
her I was trying to help her out by posting online she would probably get mad. That said, I just
cant stand seeing her stress out about paying her bills and keeping her home.
If anyone is aware of any places hiring around the Indianapolis, Shelbyville, New Palestine,
Greenwood, etc. areas I would love to hear about it so I can point her in the right direction.
I have seen the INGO community help before, so I figured I would see If anyone was aware of
any opportunities out there that she may have overlooked.
She is not picky at this point as to pay or anything else.
Thank You
