Hey guys, I'm still lurking here.
I just recently got a promotion, I'm at $35,000 which is almost twice as much as before. I'm also hourly and I work about 30 hours of time and a half per pay period. I might be able to come out with near 50K in a year if this keeps up.
The excitement hasn't really kicked in yet. My first paycheck won't be in the bank until tomorrow after midnight.
