I recently (Friday) got confirmed for the job that I’ve been working toward for the last year and a half. The new management position gives me almost a 50% pay increase, and gets me, for the first time in 15 years, a regular Monday through Friday schedule, and still lets me get on the line a couple days a week.

😃 ← That’s been me since Friday. This is my last scheduled overnight shift. WOOHOO!!!
