Hotels are an expensive option.
Check for youth hostels. It'll be cheaper. A bed, a kitchen (you'll need to buy your own food, shower, and internet.
Otherwise, there's the YMCA and- last resort- homeless shelters.
If your friends won't let you couch surf- see if they'll at least let you hold some possessions in a closet or something. Your situation requires an ease of mobility.
For food, check online for a food bank. You can often get a month's worth of food in one trip.
While you still have access to internet, take a few solid days and just start carpet-bombing job applications.
Just- fucking everything. Doesn't matter what the fuck the job is- any income is better than none when you're on the lam.
If pride is not an issue for you, there's also begging/squeegee/prostitution.
If you roam the shady side of town, you might get lucky dealing drugs. Do not rely on this, as the rewards are iffy but the risk is certain.
Whoa whoa whoa... I actually have a decent pair of jobs and haven't lost them yet.
Though that's definitely good advice should I lose one or both of them.
My main issue right now is housing... but thankfully, I have some ideas as of today. Just need to go in for an interview, and since my credit score is decent and I have a good rental history (minus this last shitty landlord) I should be able to get in... the only question is if the price is manageable.
Might have to drop the part-time work on the side and find a new full-time job soon though, so thanks for this.
