About a month ago, we were contacted by our current workamping boss, after sending emails for possible workamping opportunities. We spoke to the man several times on the phone and decided that we were going to make the trek from VA to TN. Before that happened though, our car broke down and we ended up having to scrap it. Before we scrapped it though, we contacted our now boss and asked him if he had any possible transportation we could use. He said Yes! He had 2 work trucks and a scooter that we could use to get back and forth to work once we found employment. Also, we discussed the fact that we would be working for a free spot. When we arrived everything was fine and dandy, but has now turned to a complete nightmare. He was a single man at the time, so we would all hang out together as if we were family. Our first mistake. Come to find out, none of the transportation runs, has a title or registration, so I moved my family half way through America, thinking I could still provide for my family. We came here under false pretenses. If we would have known that part of the truth, we would have never come. We cant get a job, because we have no way to get there, and he wont let us use his car. And I cant move my motor home, because it is a 83 and needs serious repairs to the brake system before we leave anywhere. The journey killed our breaks. And that costs money which a job is needed for money and wheels are need to get a job. The area is so spread out the closest town is 12 miles. Something that cant be walked to on a daily basis. And now he has gotten a new girlfriend, so we are banned from the house, so we are by ourselves, in a non existing "RV Park" in the middle of Tennessee with nothing. And now he has told my husband today that once we get campers, my 2 year old daughter will have to learn to not be so loud or she will have to remain in the motorhome. I cant have someone telling me what my 2 year old daughter can and can not do, as if that is controllable for a toddler to remain quiet ALL DAY, or is forced to remain inside my motorhome. I dont know what to do anymore. I have never felt so stuck and hopeless. I fear that he will kick us off his property before we have the chance to get the money we need to fix our breaks. I dont know what Im looking for here. I guess Im looking for advise, whether it be legal advise, or advise if someone has been in my shoes. I just need some help. Its sad when in todays world, kindness is stolen and lies are all you get back.
