Literally got my furlough notice the day I signed my offer letter

wildeone

Yes and No. It was the most I've made in my career but because of COVID fell short of the potential it had...

Furloughed for 11 weeks but investments and house shot up in value.

I thought it was until I just found out my taxable income from the pship is 50%
