Forced career change?
I work as a sales rep for a Fortune 500 company. A couple of weeks ago, I got a DUI while driving company vehicle. Police station breathalyzer indicated 0.09. Limit is 0.08. I love my job and I am a good performer and liked by management. My boss, his boss want to keep me. HR don’t know what to do. Licence is Suspended for 3 month. No charges yet as it’s criminal. Best scenario. Charges are dropped Bad scenario, I get fined for dui but they drop the 0.09. Worst scenario. I get convicted and I have a breathalyzer in a car I buy and it becomes my expense.

Loyalty to a company doesn’t mean shit.
My aunt (who's like a second mother to me) has worked for one of the country's leading insurance companies for 30 years. She had her evaluation today and is getting a whopping $100.00 bonus and a whopping $0.20 raise (minimum wage just increased by $0.60). I said she should look at retiring because thats BS and can't afford to just quit but shes 10 years too young to take regular retirement and she doesn't qualify for early retirement because of some stupid rule.
