So much in 15 years :0
Dated my boyfriend, graduated high school, tried 1 year of college, had too many arguments with my mom. My parents were in a toxic relationship that affected me too much so I dropped out of college and moved in with my boyfriend.
Started my first real job as a receptionist / admin assistant. Got promoted to management assistant of the plant manager. My boyfriend had a dream of becoming a helicopter pilot, I told him I'd support him and we moved out of our own place and moved in with his parents to save money. I had been working in the weekends as well with an extra job, and I got a second extra job.
My boss the plant manager at my main job said something I didn't like so after 7 years, I changed jobs to some consultancy company. Got married to my boyfriend. Quit the weekend works because we wanted a kid.
The consultancy job sucked and was boring, so I applied for a job as office manager to a more local company.
I got pregnant. My son was born 4,5 years ago. By then my husband finished his studies as a helicopter pilot and landed his first job in it.
We bought our own house with nothing left on our bank account when we moved in, and then 2 loans to pay off; the pilot loan and the house loan.
We were living from paycheck to paycheck.
Corona happened, the boss of the company retired and handed management over to his son. The son sucked at managing the company so I was left managing it alone. I asked for a small raise and he wouldn't give it to me. So I changed jobs again to a company in Brussels as a Finance assistant where I could work remotely most of the time.
The manager I was supposed to work together with, quit her job right before I started so I had to take care of everything and was promoted after 3 months to finance administrator.
Our hard work made us able to pay off the pilot loan sooner than expected.
After 2 years, my responsibilities grew so much that I wanted a raise, my boss wouldn't give it so I started applying for another company. (Lol I always know my worth XD)
They offered me a salary that was 25% higher, I spoke with my boss because I did like the company and my job otherwise. He then promoted me to be finance director and I got an even bigger raise and salary XD
Anddd that's where I'm at now :D Excited for the upcoming years honestly ^^ I hope I can continue this path. Health and happiness are most important though. Kind of struggling with the balances of everything.

Worked (am still working), got married, got divorced, got into 2 relationships post-divorce where I lost my self-respect (trauma bonded basically). Did a little bit of travel. Let's see where the story goes
