7 years ago I (31F) was homeless due to mental illness. I got stable and rebuilt my career. Now I’m going into my first day at a $40B global company and I’m making 30% more than my last job.
I have a long commute so I drove to a Starbucks nearby and am sitting in the parking lot in my gray pin striped suit reflecting on my life.
I’m so proud and grateful. I’m also nervous because I need to do well at this job to attain the future I want.
Wish me luck, Reddit!
And sending good vibes to anyone who is currently job hunting.
