Can has praise, cannot has money
The crappy economy has hit home.
I don’t usually post about personal things on this blog, but this is a pretty big deal for me.
In case you’re assuming the worst, it isn’t. I have a job (and even recently got some very nice feedback on the way I’m doing that job).
…but it comes with a hefty chunk less salary than before.
I’ve spent a lot of time feeling lucky recently, before the downturn hit directly, and I’m still lucky. I have a rainy-day fund and I still have a job, and I have friends and connections.
But damn, it still sucks. I have sticker shock.
