Yeah, I think moments are tough to embrace in that situation for a variety of reasons. I was almost like a robot during those years—wake up, participate in the grind, come home, go to sleep.

Where there's a will there's a way I guess! : ) Around 2015 I was feeling desperate to escape and, shortly after, the universe plopped Steemit into my lap and that ended up being my ticket to freedom.

For sure! There's truth in that phrase misery loves company. I had several co-workers try to instill doubt in me about leaving. Many were just there because of the perception of security but the ironic thing was many of the tenured employees were offered buyouts and let go just a few years after I left. I'm almost sure I would have been one of them.

You're welcome!
