Exactly! In this economy, it's hard to find a job even if you are educated and have never had any problems. I can't imagine how hard it would be to face so many obastacles. Not only do you have to face logistics (no address, phone, or possibly recent job history) you have to face a stereotype that says you are lazy and worthless.
