Got a raise, will be moved to full time contract with 3 weeks paid vacation and they're looking to put me back on salary by the middle of the year.
Good day.

So having the hourly rate that also includes overtime does help when I have situations like that (they're kind of rare though). But it means that all my health, vision, dental, etc. needs to be paid out of pocket. Still having a guaranteed pay check value makes budgeting so much easier. Also, I didn't have vacation at all, so I went from 0 vacation to 3 weeks paid vaca, which is kind of nice, use it or lose it though.

First week on my internship is going well. First time working on a complex codebase and it's a little overwhelming. New apartment is pretty sweet too, but the pool is closed until further notice due to aids and the fitness center is like 4 ellipticals. RIP gains.

Got some news about my company that could be good on the whole, and very good for me, but can't talk about details for a few more weeks...

A lot has happened since I last posted and caught up with you guys. I now live with 2 of my friends in an apartment, I just paid off my college debts and plan on returning when I can and I have a new GF.
It's been nice to be out of the toxic environment I used to live in, it's so much easier to build myself up. I might be working for Best Buy soon. It's no Microcenter but it's better than fast food. Hope you guys have been well.

I'll be here for probably a year.
