Public transportation? Depending on where you live this is a viable option. It will most likely be super inconvenient (get up at 6:00 AM get home at 7:00 PM) because you will be at the mercy of the bus schedule, but it will definitely keep you going. Unless there's somewhere to work within walking distance or you can scrap together some money (personal loan, family loan, sell everything you own) it sounds like you're pretty screwed. There are a large number of jobs out there where telecommuting is a viable option, however you are at the mercy of your employer and most employers don't like people telecommuting more than a few days a week unless the job is specifically set up to be telecommuted or you're some exemplary employee they don't want to lose. Talk with your employer, look into getting a loan to buy a beater ($1500-$3000 car), find a job locally that you can walk/bike to, or look into public transportation are about your only options.

I'm not going to patronize you with the "this is why you need an emergency fund" speech... My buddy was a "work from home" rep for whoever Comcast contracts through for local support. It was a pretty okay gig at $10-$11 an hour and the only real requirements were: 1. Have a computer 2. Have stable internet access 3. Know how to google (or in this case internal wiki) problems I don't remember the name of the company, but you may be able to find it. Might work as a temporary holdover. Again, not trying to patronize you, but how much do you make at a job that is 30 minutes away? Are you even breaking even over minimum wage at a local burger flipping job?
