sorry to hear about you circumstances. they are truly behind the times. there are many many other places that are far far better for bike commuters. I know jobs are hard to find but you should be looking. my wife thinks I'm nuts for bringing bike commuting up at 1st interviews. but you know what? I know who I want to work for, and if bringing something like that up turns them off, then I don't want to work for them. I am old enough to know this. for example REI in Natick has a shower and they welcome bike commuters as employees.
