Thank you for highlighting this important issue facing homelessness in rural areas. Can all of the readers and listeners commit to contacting the headquarters of the restaurant chain Mickie works for? It's an outrage that she was not allowed to have the day off to gain housing a year ago. I feel strongly the company needs to know about this. Clearly she is a dedicated employee, with likely a better attendance history than most of her coworkers
