shameless self bump
>>31583271Why do you want more? You have a stable job. Save money, start businesses, your never gonna make it wagecuckin it
>>31584592I am looking to buy a home in the next year or two max. I have saved up enough but I just want extra cushion. And my role is underpaid to what I would be getting at another company.Business ownership is something I am not interested in at all I am fine living until retirement as an employee.
>>31584592sorry, OP here. also as I said they greatly misrepresented the job duties and environment to me in the interview. i was told I would be doing finance duties when im doing accounting stuff only. I was also lied to about the work hours and expectations
