Lets face it, if AL didn't have youtube what would really be her chances of obtaining employment as a 500lbs woman? She can't sustain an office job as she's proven to us, and most people aren't likely to hire her if she would be "the first person a customer would see" anyway. She can't do anything physically demanding which would limit her form jobs like Walmart. She's not intelligent enough to do tech support or other work from home. She was lucky for the handful of job's she's had in the past but broke her ties there as well.
Gotta love how she swore back and forth that her call center job was do-able for her and the only reason she quit was because she "missed being around her animals" and that "they were neglected". This coming from a person who drove 2 hours one to purchase makeup she could have bought online. The person that is constantly in the car getting food/going to movies/going to walmart. The hours she spends at home are spent in bed sleeping. On the off chances that she DOES get up and move around, she doesn't even take her dog for a walk. Just kicks her out the back door to crap on the lawn. To be fair Eric and Ricky are home a lot and they probably interact with the animals more than AL.
She is a class A moocher. She mooched off the government, ex's parents, ex's, and now her youtube audience with clickbait titles and empty promises. She goes on a rant about how her channel is kin to a television show and yet she puts the literal minimal effort into it possible. This is why people have such issue with her claiming its her job. Its not, picking up your cell phone and filming your girlfriend's yellow teeth and what you cooked for your 15th meal for the day is not the least bit taxing. She claims that its "a lot of work" to open up. Its not. She hasn't opened up about anything, she just doesn't hide how lazy she is anymore. She doesn't even edit her videos, how many times does she say in a video "I'm going to edit that out" and anything actually gets edited? Never. Hell, I would have more respect for her if she skipped a couple meals out a month and purchased herself a decent computer/camera and upped the quality of her vlogs.
