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...

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

Eesh. That sucks. Most companies will cover taxes for members / partners.

Yeah...just a weird year because they chose to pay down a ton of debt to make

Fdnman

Definitely. Promotion and ~60 hour weeks for the past year.
