I don't even know where to begin. I was working a temp job 3 days a week and relying on my partner at the time to help with rent/bills.. and I really hated it. I found a listing that seemed too good to be true but it was just down the road and I was desperate for full-time. During my 3rd interview, HR was going over the benefits and I was so overwhelmed I could cry. Dental, vision, life, vacation/sick time, a ridiculous amount of bonus days, free school, and more. When I got the job I knew my life would change but I didn't know that it would in such a short amount of time. During the summer, we have weeks worth of bonus days and I've been taking time off just to swim, read, write, paint and just exist. It's so bizarre doing all that and still getting paid for it. I live by myself. I pay my own rent, bills, groceries and have disposable income to treat myself. I'm even in the process of buying a new car. Fuck. After years and years of instability, substance abuse, homelessness, etc.. I can finally breathe a little easier.
