Sounds painful, sorry. I'm assuming biking, car-pooling, and borrowing a car are not going to work for you. Time is not on your side. Try to speed things up. Is your car totaled? Get an answer asap. Some rental places have good discounts for month-long rentals - prices vary wildly so shop around and around. Your insurance should restore your car to you (minus your deductible) or pay you what it was worth. Would be nice to get your car back asap, but if not, start shopping the used car market so you can move as soon as you have the $$. source - I had to rent a car for almost 2 months last summer in similar situation :(

Thanks! I actually considered that for the past few weeks. But i live alone and I am single so i have no idea how I would juggle 2 cars. It would certainly help save in the money being washed away by rentals and gas. I've looked at getting something used although I understand it'll betrickery. I just want to have something with reasonable payments for me.

I'm doing my very best to come up with a solution. I've actually had no full days off the past two weeks because while I'm not at work I've been busy on my days off trying to find work closer to home and sending out forms. I'm actually pretty exhausted right now.

Unfortunately I had to let one of the opportunities go for multiple reasons. It won't make sense here unless you've worked in my field. But the short answer was that there were glaring communication issues and no opportunity for overtime which leaves me back at square one.
