I have a serious problem, and I can't sleep because of it.
A few months ago I lost my job, my apartment, and basically everyone I had cared about.
The end result was me moving out of state with a friend's mom, in hopes that I would be able to get back on my feet.
It has been a month now and I have made several strides to get ahead, but I am only human, and have not guaranteed a solution yet.
I had applied for a job through a staffing agency, and gone through their hoops to the best of my ability. Today, after filling out some paperwork, they directed me to do a drug screen that I had no idea I was going to have. Needless to say, I was not able to go, even after drinking tons of coffee and water to accelerate the system.
Not being able to provide a sample, the staffing agency was nice enough to let me try again tomorrow, however as with my current transportation situation, causes my friend's mom to take an extended lunch from her job to take me.
I feel like I've let her down, she's visibly upset with me, despite her not wanting to talk to me about it. Is there anything I can do for her to show that I'm trying?

Please tell me you called him son; talk out of it, talking with a reasonable person will always come to productive results

You can succeed, friend. The point of this is you took drugs and were unable to take the drug test so they told you to come back tomorrow. Wouldn't that be the opposite direction of progress?
You want to turn your life around without changing your lifestyle. In any case, you need to find some alternative method to getting to the employment centre or whatever it is. Bus maybe? Taxi? I don't know. The big issue isn't really so much that you're cutting into her work time; moreso that you're taking advantage of it and not really doing anything with it.

You said you have taken several strides to get ahead. Yet the only thing you mention is going to a staffing agency and filling out their preliminary application and then not providing a urine sample. Why weren't you at that staffing agency within the first couple of days of moving and not a month later?

Stop taking drugs. They are such a waste of everything and they get boring after a while anyway. Someday you may wish you had the time back.

What an idiot.
