Hi all. Apologies if this is not allowed here. I know people out there are struggling, but I just want to share my good news with someone.
It’s a big milestone of accomplishment in my life, but I feel weird just telling family members or my online friends about it. The only other people who know are my coworkers because we all got the same raise. Money doesn’t go as far nowadays due to crazy inflation post COVID and my area has higher cost of living than where I grew up, but I’m still very happy about this. I remember back when I used to only make minimum wage. All those years of schooling eventually made their way back to me. I’ll never make as much money as someone like a doctor, but it’s definitely enough for me to live comfortably as a single person.
Anyway, I’ll delete this in a bit (or sooner if it gets removed by a mod), but I hope you guys out there have a good weekend.
Edit: Thank you guys very much :)
Edit 2: Jeez there are so many more comments than I expected. You guys are so nice!!
They do what they want because they’re the Hamilton county government. They don’t even need evidence to convict someone. They just keep moving your court date up indefinitely and have your appointed lawyer sign off on it and tell you that COVID means no fair and speedy trial.
I’m gonna be bitter about this forever, and the worst part is that there is no seeking help from others. Everyone is too wrapped up in their own problems or rich enough to think that things are so easy that people deserve their problems. People only know what they see, and what they see is controlled.
I wish I could help you bud. If I had money I wouldn’t be able to keep it for helping folks out, but I don’t, and I have no drive to get it.
I hope you have some good luck soon.
