So I may have gotten a job and told them I still lived in NYC. If I get it, where can I safely stay for 2-3 weeks til I get my first paycheck? I unfortunately don’t have money for hotels or a sublet so I know my options are pretty limited to probably a shelter, but wanted to see if there’s anything I may be overlooking? I’ve been homeless several times but I’ve never actually stayed in a shelter.
