I agree with all the other comments. Hopefully sharing what you’re feeling with all of us helps make you feel better. Although none of us personally know you, we feel like you’re our friend and only want the best for you and your family. We’re here to support you however we can. Watching, liking, commenting and sharing your channel is something small we all can do. 🌺
You are not alone. We hear you and see how hard you are working for your family. Take a deep breath, ask for help when and where you can, and keep going. You can do this. 💕
We love you and your awesome cheerful personality. You're a great mom and it's okay to feel just sick of the way things are going. Just think about the end of September when your boss is back and go get that promotion! Money will get better, just keep going it's what we all do! Crying is good too.
I'm 30 and I see you sorta like a mom figure, I like watching your videos of you delivering food. I know you're trying your best, keep it up 💕😁👍🏼
❤❤❤this was sad Mama. I pray you will be okay. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 God bless you. Stay strong. You are blessed and the best is coming. ❤❤❤😊😊😊
People think it's crazy, but I walked away from my regular job to do Doordash. On my regular job I was only making $18 an hour and with Doordash on average I make between $23 - $26 an hour. And I only work a few hours on Thursdays Fridays Saturdays and Sundays on my terms. And I'm not as stressed as I was at my regular job.
Oh my stars, that’s so not right. ALWAYS take care of YOU first!! Hopefully you’ll get a raise & come closer to being out of debt. 💗🙏🏻
I had to take a break from dashing. I started a new job and was way behind in bills so was just running myself to the ground working both jobs..I will start again next weekend but I do enjoy dashing
I wish I could do it full-time but don't see it possible. Hang in there
What do you use to record ? I tried using my phone and it’s so difficult.
I use a GoPro.

My friend has a disabled son with cerebral palsy. He has the functioning of a 2 year old, maybe. He’s 37 yo. (We have been friends for 41 years) She is blessed to live in a town where she is able to let him go to a occupation center. Idk what they are really called. It gives her the respite she needs during the days. Monday through Friday. They come and pick him up and drop him off. I feel so bad for you that you feeling so sad. I’m sorry. 😢Idk if they have that where you are but if they do look into it. She also gets paid by someone (not sure if it’s the state) to take care of him. She does well enough to buy her and him a home. She also gets his ssi money. Please don’t feel bad if you were to decide to get paid by the state. That’s what these programs are there for. You take care of you and your son/family. 🙏✌️❤
Absolutely, take advantage of what would help you!
I wanted to reach through the screen and give you a hug. So many of us are struggling right now and it seems even small things are to hard to get. I'm older then you and can't really work full time anymore but watching your video's makes me smile and feel better. Thanks for sharing the rough patch's. All i can do to help is watching your video's and keep liking. Keep your chin beautiful lady, you got this.
This may come across wrong but I was smiling the entire time you told the story bcuz in my head all I could see was the blessing. You have 4-6 weeks of extra income and I have been listening to your get out of debt and move to a better location for months.
Take the next week's and make as much money as you can, rest when you can and keep repeating THIS TOO SHALL PASS!!!
This is a blessing in disguise.
And I totally get the relaxing part of delivery. You're doing your own thing and there's noone to stress you out.
JUST BREATHE AND WATCH GOD WORK YOUR STUFF OUT 😊
Hi mama we are rooting for you. Hopefully it is therapeutic to share your feelings with us - we are listening. I started dashing as a 3rd job because I have a pretty bad situation too, my parents in law had to escape the war in Ukraine and are living with my wife and I. They have nothing - no benefits no nothing. It's been a burden but I want to fight the good fight and keep them safe while trying to raise a family. Be kind to one another you never know what that person is going through in life
I’m so sorry you feel so sad. I hope things change for you soon but we’re all in the same boat. Watching our money not be enough and just hoping for something better.
I just wanted to say I’m probably on the younger side of your average viewer but you are seriously such an inspiration for me. You’ve been going through it but your ability to persevere and continue living with a smile on your face is so admirable. Wishing you and your family the best. ❤️
At least you can joke and laugh 😅 tell her again to stay on her side. I hope things will get better for you. Thats something for you to think about being his caregiver i don't know what it's called in your state but its called public Partnership here in Virginia
Aww Girly, u broke my heart. Know that u are an inspiration to others. One of these days things will turn around. U are a hard worker & it will pay off. I'm one of many cheering u on 😊
🙏🙏🙏 for some peace and better days. You’re an incredible mom, provider and human.
Oh gosh, I just watched the end. I wish I could reach through and give you a hug. Here in California, we have regional centers that will provide free respite care workers, or also, after school programs for social skills for the developmentally delayed. This was a huge help with my son when he was younger. Please look into support services when you have time to catch your breath again. You deserve to have some help. ❤ Sending you a big hug! 💕
Easter Seals and United Way should offer assistance. If United Way denies you, we need to know.
The words of wisdom PSA at the close of the video are my favourite part! When I worked at a coffee shop, a little girl (with her mother) told me I was good at my job. I thanked her but made sure that she knew to work really hard in school so that she didn't have to be good at a job like mine unless she wanted to. Her mother nodded in agreement and knew exactly what I meant. I left to go back to long term care (health care aide) work not long after that. We see your struggle and even though there really isn't anything we can do to improve your situation - we are here to listen, we send virtual hugs and we choose to sit with you while you struggle your way along.

Meaty Mama..there are tons of jobs working from home that are non-phone related. find one that you enjoy doing. You have skills so it shouldn't be hard to get one. Keep your head up! ❤
Hi Meaty mama, I do Uber eats, G h, DD and I saw your video this evening and I would like to share with you that if you ask Jesus for things to go the way you would like it will happen for you. I only say this because I'm a single dad and I went through the same type of issues you've experienced and all I can say is everything I needed he provided and he keeps blessing me continuously even on deliveries, please accept him and watch things change for you, he will help you more than anybody can including yourself
Single parenting is a struggle and like all the others i wish i could dp something to help. I will be praying for you and your struggle!
Sending you hugs. I’ve been watching tic toc videos and everyone is in the same boat. Things need to change. No one seems to know what to do. Me too. I’m 74 and still work 12 hours a week just so I can buy my organic food and vitamins. I don’t even want to know how to survive on my measley social security right now. It pays the bills but nothing left over. We all feel your pain👍🙏💕
I’m 75, Vietnam vet, lost job, now I’m dashing just to stay alive. I feel your pain. Hang in there, you’re still young. Hope things get better for you.
They need to pay you now. They will use you until you stop it.
I understand. Do hold on to your job BUT look into details of being a caregiver for your son it is not depending on the state. It is supplementing. .I don't live in the state of Florida so it may be different to what is available in California.
I agree. You are most likely eligible for assistance from the state while earning an income. You are most likely qualified for disability income for your son.
You work very hard. Do not think of these services as handouts. ❤❤❤
I love your videos….just take one day at a time ,and you got to do what makes u happy.
Praying you get the promotion and raise otherwise now would be the perfect opportunity to give an ultimatum being the only one there. Stay strong ❤
Your son, who I believe you said is over the age of 18, would be for sure eligible for SSI. Once they hit 18, it is based on their income...not yours, as they are adults. It's not a lot of money, but it helps pay for some of those extras that our kiddos with disabilities need. You would apply through the Social Security office. I'm not sure how long the waiting list for the Medicaid Waiver is in your state, but it can help pay for things like Respite and day programming. If he attended a day program, be it vocational or social, it would allow you more flexibility for your employment. Hang in there, Mama!
I have not been able to find day programs in our area, unfortunately.
Hi Meaty Mama, I'm so sorry that you are going through this. I love in Washington State. I have worked as a Home Care Aid for a client with Autism over the past 6 years. She was 15 when I started. Now that she is 21 years old, her Mom can claim and get paid for any remaining approved personal care hours that I don't use. She runs a thriving in home day care so she is able to work a full time job with a little less stress!Sorry every time I post a comment it ends up very wordy. I know you've prob checked into it but just thought I would put it out there for something to look into just in case.
You are such a sweetheart and I hate to see you going through so much. You are a great Mom and you are doing what you can, please don't beat yourself up. Take a deep breath and pause. And while you may consider new opportunities, I would hang in there for now, especially if there is a chance of promotion and more $$$ coming. In the meantime, you can start to look and see what else is out there that can help you with your longer term goals. Take the time now so that it will be the right opportunity not just change for the sake of change. Adulting is hard, but you are one strong lady! You are fabulous and it will get better!!! I wish you the best. I'm going to leave your channel up and running - try to get you some extra ad money - hope others will do the same.
Stay strong you’re doing the best you can ❤❤❤
I hope you are able to come up with a good solution. Sending positive vibes your way !
Maybe try a noise cancellation headphone set if you’re looking for another job that requires you to be on the phone. It totally blocks out any background noise!
Why don't you have a live interaction with your audience of what fun "short stories" you are going to write about.
Or tell us some of your ideas of what you would like to write about.
When I'm feeling like that, I actually ask random people for a big hug. Helps me a them usually. I'm 70, so people just think it's crazy cute. Sending you a long, warm hug.
I’m with you on all of that girl….trying to dig out myself….praying for better things to come for us both!
Praying that things get better for you and your family
Party City orders are crazy. This happened to me before. My heart understands your dilemma. Trying to battle, my debt also, at 67 years young. Living alone, after 34 year marriage.
Thank you for sharing your feelings. You are definitely not alone in this. Life has been holding so many of us in a chokehold and just when you think it’s getting better, something else slaps you around. Sending you love and hugs from Michigan. ❤❤❤❤ We got this 👍
Hugs and ❤ from VA. You have the best laugh. Stay on your side though😂
Party City with the balloons- it’s getting ridiculous. Really. I picked up an order of balloons on Sunday and watched a young man load his car with balloons just like you did- right & rear windows blocked. It’s nuts. And I’m sincerely sorry things feel so overwhelming and difficult for you. I’m rooting hard for you. I hope a good, unforeseen break comes along soon to change & lighten your load. ❤
We love you 💓 Meaty Mama's.. things are gonna change! In JESUS name ✝️🙏 everything gonna be alright 💕
Hi Meaty Mama! Enjoyed your video today. If I may, I would recommend a change in mindset. For one thing, you appear to be doing phenomenal work at each of your jobs. Therefore, it may be time to venture out on your own. Put out your own shingle, for example, Meaty Mama Transcription Services. Cut out the middleman and make more money there. You could start your own transportation service and do your own dashes, run errands for seniors, drop people off at the doctor, or other. And lastly, you could start a daycare for wonderful individuals like your son. It may sound to difficult or far from reality, but if you are interested, please consider it. It would be more money and you would feel terrific about your accomplishments. Just a few thoughts. Best wishes to you always. Thank you for posting your wonderful videos.
Wow, I felt this… I’m trying to dash my way out of debt as well… please know you aren’t alone in your feelings, I can completely relate.. it’s been very hard for a long time.. the tide will be turning soon ❤
I’m so sorry you are upset and feeling frustrated. It is really difficult. I’m praying for you.
Doing the best for your son. ❤❤ You’re a good mama.
I will pray for you hope things will get better financially and mentally.
Praying for you and your family ❤
You will fine what you are looking for someday. It's the journey. Good Luck.
Pulling for you. Keep fighting.
I’m sorry, MM. I don’t think I could Door Dash full time either even though I make more on it than doing medical transcription and how messed up is that? Sometimes I have trouble sitting and typing for 5 hours at a time. I have a lot of debt too and it gets so frustrating. Things will get better.
I'm not sure how old your son is, but I hope you can find some respite care for him soon. My son is on the spectrum, we have had SSI for him for a long while. I live in a state where you don't get paid to be a caregiver, unfortunately. He's just turned 18, so we are applying for him to get SSI on his own. He probably can work, but it will have to be a job with support or else he will wander etc. I don't believe he will be able to support himself completely, but I could be wrong. He's very bright and wants to be a mechanic. I'm so sorry you have a job that you hate. Sending big hugs from Georgia.
Cheer up. Things are going to get better. Hang in there. Something will come along and make your life better. You're doing a great job. I know it's hard sometimes I've been there
You are doing a whole lot meaty mom!!! I really feel for you because you have so much on your shoulder . These jobs don’t care how much they overwork you until your breaking point.. I had one and had to take a month of short term disability ( depression and anxiety issues) . I am still in therapy as well. Please protect your mental health
I love you, and my heart breaks for you. Please know that your viewers truly care about you. You are strong. You are beautiful. Good will come to you. You are very deserving. All my best, sweetheart. ❤
I believe most people in our country are in a similar position to everything you just said. Some are more to blame than others, but the statistics show that the gap between pay vs cost of living is 10-20x what it was 50 years ago. Things will change in our lifetimes and we will get through this 👊
You are a full time care giver, you should get help with that role. NO shame in getting paid for additional job the state would have to take on if you were not such an exceptional mother and provider. It could really help you reach your goals and provide you some much needed relief from constant working.
You are a wonderful lady. I really enjoy watching your videos. You keep doing you and stay positive. Things will fall into place.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Oh Mama, my heart goes out to you 💗I'm so sorry that you're going through so many difficulties lately. You are so proactive in improving your situation and your determination and hard work is something that should applauded. So many of us admire your work ethic and are extremely proud of you. Things have got to get better, right? Some commenters have already left some interesting suggestions that might be worth looking into. Take care and please remember that we're thinking of you and got your back! 🤗
Great real video! So sorry your having a downer day. We all understand “trap”. Tomorrow is another day. You can figure it out.
Your a momma and it doesn't allow your to give up. It's all worth it and those kids will appreciate it. It's ok to be stressed out about it. My son turned out to be a great person. He knows who stood by his side taught him how to be a man. I get compliments all the time about how good a man he is. ❤ It's worth it. You're a good mom.
I am sending positive thoughts your way.
Mama you are loved always remember your never alone you have us to vent to and share with. You need a break for a weekend if you have someone who could help out. You rest when you can and try not to stress no more than you have too. Love you hope your having a better week.
aw meaty mama just know we’re all here for you and love u so so much life will get better I promise all it takes is time and patience🤍
We all have those times when emotions are high and we question everything. Don’t let it get you down for long. You’re intelligent and resourceful and you’ll find what you need for you and your kids, along the way. Things will get better. Stay strong and remind yourself why you do, what you do, everyday💕
Oh dear I teared up with you at the end. No need to apologize for your emotions. Sending a virtual hug!
Sending❤❤❤❤❤❤.
As one mom to another. I’m praying for you.
Party city is an automatic decline
Hugs to you and prayers. You are such an inspiration to your family and all of your UA-cam family. We are all cheering you on much love always!
Hang in there. Hugs. One day at a time.
“You have arrived” HAHAHAAA
I'm sorry you have so much stress right now, and I pray that God blesses you, your family and your finances. Although, it sucks that you are being so overworked, hopefully it will at least help you speed up your debt free journey a lot faster. ❤🙏🙏
God is with you, lady! Hang in there. I agree it is less stressful driving than in the office but I'm stressed because the gigs are the only work for me right now (by my stupid choice) BUT, I needed the reset.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Are more workers needed for doing what you do for your main job? I have been wAnting to work at home for YEARS but have always felt either inadequate or just didn’t know how to find that type of work. I think what you do would be perfect for me, because I do not want to deal with customers in a retail setting. If there’s any way I can join your team, I’d be interested in getting out of my main job…as long as it doesn’t matter if I’m in another state and if the pay would work for me.
This is why I won’t go back to nursing. My hospital job was killing me. Dashing is annoying but it’s way less stressful
❤
This is why I don't take Party City orders cause I have a smaller car, and safety should be considered.
Thinking of you !! Keep your head up girly !! 🙏🏽🌺
I hate seeing you upset and crying 🥹. You are inspiring so many of us to push through. Many blessings to you and the kiddos! ❤
I truly hope that things get better for you. I am in the same situation. I broke down on the side of the road in the middle of no where and I had to wait an hour and a 1/2 in the heat for a tow truck to get there. My son showed up with cold water which was awesome but I was so frustrated and I own an older Cadillac and they are hell of an expense to fix. I don't even know what's wrong with it. I haven't heard yet or what they found out. And I can't afford high dollar repairs. And I can't afford a new car. I did not want that car but my cheating husband thought that trash car would be a great parting gift when we got divorced. But he bought it anyways.
Can you schedule your dash times a week of head of time in my market we can I’ve only been doing this since May my numbers are all high and I’ve never been a top dasher i schedule when I want to work
What would have happened if all those balloons hadn't fit in your car?
Hugs!
Hi Honey first Happy Belated Birthday from a fellow Leo mines was 8/14. I knew I was drawn to you for a reason. Not only that when I was DD part time I related to every senerio I see you go through and it was therapeutic from my daytime customer service job that pays the bills. My reason for DD was different but overall it was to get me to my goal. I watch all your videos to support and will continue to pray for you and your family. I believe prayer changes everything and your upgrade is near.❤
❤❤❤❤
You just made me cry! Sending hugs
❤❤❤
Sending you love and strength! ❤
I pray that everything gets better for you soon!🌷
Try doing full time gig. Alot of us do
Mama I can sympathize with you. So many struggles but I find door dash is relaxing and usually fun. 🙏 for you to keep going in all your responsibilities.
I understand the wait time. I had one today I took from mcDs They were incredibly busy and I waited about 15 mins I was 18 mins past pick up time and then they said they were waiting for the cookies the customer order to finish. Mean while I’ve communicate to the customer about waiting and it’s busy. I know it’s a teenager and the person put me on blast why I wasn’t moving was I doing my job?
I was at the counter waiting patiently but I had a bad feeling about the customer, just cause they weren’t being patient themselves. (I was waiting standing on my injured hip btw)
I thought DD would let me unassign but it never came up that’s when I knew there wasn’t another driver in the area. Any way I unassigned and this kid would wait longer. I would have waited but he was not nice so he will either wait for a long time or not get his order. I then stopped my dash and went home. Made zero money but I don’t need to be disrespected.
To tomorrow cheers 🥂
@@cindyz7973 agree. Now I know not to dash between 2pm and 4:30pm kids at home with their CC from mom. (They probably have watched those viral tik tok videos on how to get free food from DD. 🤯
I love your videos and your energy
Why don't you try driving people with Uber x I make 7,000 a month doing it and it works great Make great money and it's no different than delivering food just keep it in mind Don't know what your market is like but look into it just an idea Good luck!
7 grand a month....memories
I call bs on that
.
Even in new York and California
Do you ever get paid by the hour
For dashing? No
@@themeatymama they offer it here $14 hour plus tips while you are doing an order I haven’t tried it yet but I will
