Telling my partner I lost my job, store manager here

I have been leaving the house at the same time each day so my kids do not notice. Bills are coming up and I cannot keep this quiet.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 9 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

Do not wait until a bill surprises them. The longer it goes, the harder it gets.
