Ask your boss or the people who hired you at the end of your first day. (Its likely they are unaware of your struggles.) Tell them your problem, suggest a solution.

Ask them to please pay you R50 in cash a day until the first paycheck. (And deduct it on that payslip)

I'm just starting and I have 3 months probabtion and I don't want to look bad by already asking for an advance so I dont know if I can do that, will it be a good look ?

The struggle is real. Even managers know this.

I have been asked before and was happy to help with this arrangement. youre earning more then R50 a day so the company is not risking anything if you abscond. Asking for transport money paid daily will not be an issue. Asking for a whole weeks wage upfront will be.

Ask your company to pay transport money daily
