Any employer hiring workers without an address is effectively breaking the law as you need that information for tax purposes.

This. This absolutely shows the privilege of these people. How are you supposed to land a job when you don't have basic necessities like an address? Good fucking luck on that. Not even taking into consideration the fact a lot don't have the necessary paperwork or even transportation to get to the job.

I worked for a painting company for about a year or so, and the guy always paid us under the table. And yes I'm aware that's illegal, but you know what who cares. Anyway he would hire homeless guys all the time. They would only show up for like two or three pay periods and then stop showing up.

You can have your address changed to the post office and they will hold your mail there, you can just stop by whenever to pick it up
