"I've had to give up living in my home state where all of my immediate family lives. It is so expensive here that the only way for me to afford living on my own is to leave."
"It sucks because my sister is about to have her first kid, and I so badly want to be involved in my niece/nephew’s life, but I’m also not interested in living in my parent’s basement forever, so I accepted a job halfway across the country for almost double my current pay in one of the lowest cost of living states in the US. Here’s hoping I can move back someday when my career is more established, I guess.
They knew they couldn't handle the mental and financial stress that children also add. I know it was a hard decision for them but it's an adult decision.""I had to give up my monthly sugar waxing and learn to do it myself. Kind of a blessing in disguise, though. The learning curve isn't too bad and my $20 tub of wax has already saved me around $500 worth of appointments.
"My contract ends at the end of this month, and I've been scrambling to find another one. . It would be a relief if I could just work only full-time again, but I can't make the numbers work.""I gave up breakfast, and sometimes lunch to cut down on grocery costs for my family.""I'm a 28-year-old woman and I make $55,000 a year. I was saving to finally move out of my parents home.
"I’m also just really disappointed because I felt like I was finally getting somewhere and now it’s yet again a struggle. I can’t even find a job that pays what I used to make without demanding a masters degree, which wasn’t a demand when I was hired at my last job doing the same thing. Even 'entry level' isn’t truly entry level anymore. I don’t know who the job market is 'strong' for, but it isn’t anyone I know.
