Struggle
Entering her zip code, Elaine focused on the task at hand, knowing it was the most important job for which she would apply.
Counting the change in the bottom of her purse, Barbara placed the coins in stacks, realizing she had just enough for a round trip bus fare to the interview.
Entering the code in the key pad of her office, Jasmine knew she would have some heavy decision making to make about who she would hire for her personal assistant.
Calling the doctor’s office, Elaine entered the code which ensured it authenticated her, only to hear the answer she needed to know, the news, if bad, would be a nurse and the phone redirected to the nursing department.
Barbara walked into Jasmine’s office, ready as she could be for the job interview, she had a job, but she needed to supplement her income, due to the high bills from her husband’s medical treatments; Keeping him always in the back of her mind, after the funeral, she knew he would be there in spirit.
Elaine hung up the phone, went to her computer, emailed to Jasmine’s office, confirming her appointment, she needed this job more than ever, but she also knew it would offer her no promises in her life.

oh man! that call for test results… funny, the best news comes from the nurse (or even the admin), the worst is the ‘invitation’ to see the doctor!

This reminded me of the movie Crash that spun like a wheel taking you into the lives of all the people tied to a single incident. You did the same, and carried it off very well..
