Just got a job offer (finance) in oil and gas. I get the impression that the sector is very conservative. I'm a person of color and don't feel like I won't connect well with my possible colleagues.

I wanted to go to a place for one day turnaround.

My preferred place, Curative, doesn't seem to have any rapid testing in Houston. I wanted to ask Reddit before randomly picking a place.

I have a friend who lives in Texas that is 60 years old with limited financial means. I don't know how to really help her except to ask for the Reddit community to recommend some websites to get her started.

Is this a good website to get started? https://www.hud.gov/states/texas/renting

Not sure if Section 8 is the route to recommend. Any insights to the process?
