What now?

So your boss tells you that you are the best assistant she ever had but she can't afford to pay you anymore so this is your week's notice. You have worked there for 9 months, 6 of which were free. You worked 7 days a week between 2-3 jobs in order to pay your bills and keep your internship. When your internship ended you accepted lower payment than originally agreed upon because you knew it was a bad year. You are told you will get help finding a better position but that help consists of you blindly sending cover letters and resumes to 40 casting directors and agents and getting asked by your boss every day if you got a job yet. She didnt give you a list either, you did your own research. The people she did suggest were out of a book from 2003 and are no longer in business. None of those casting directors/agents that you applied to are hiring. But thats it. You have to leave cause she cant keep paying you. No help, over a year of your life wasted. And she gets mad when she forwards you a birthday card a week later and you dont respond to her e-mail.

So I ask you, What Now?
