finally... I landed a new job | no more unemployment

HUGE job update. I did it! I got a new job after 11 months of unemployment post layoff -- it's been a damn ride and I'm so happy to start working again.

CONGRATULATIONS! I was laid off three months ago and received an offer last week. Your videos really comforted me and it was nice to know I wasn't alone in how I was feeling.

[@FirstGenMoney]

ah!! congrats on your offer!! I'm so happy that my videos could do that💜

[@moniqrupley6019]

Congratulations. Anyone who gets a job in this economy has beaten all odds.

[@FirstGenMoney]

thank you so much! truly is worst market I've seen in my short career lol

[@celestial_sphere3]

Congrats on the offer :) The job search is brutal out there. When people suggest having 6 months' worth of expenses on-hand I feel that it isn't enough.

[@ericcarson342]

It isn't. Can't imagine having only 3 months. Gotta have 12 months now.

[@FirstGenMoney]

thank you!! yes this experience has definitely shifting my mindset on how much to have on hand for "emergency" or "long-term unemployment"... you truly never know how long it might last

[@TheahLil]

You were really resilient and I'm proud of you! Congratulations, its well, well, WELL earned and deserved. I look forward to seeing the next chapters!

[@FirstGenMoney]

ahh thank you much :) appreciate you!

[@mc9580]

Chica!!! SOO HAPPY FOR YOU

[@FirstGenMoney]

THANK YOU! I'm sorry to hear that you too were laid off but yesss you are totally NOT alone -- and I'm glad my videos could provide some comfort. you got this!

[@aaliyahhhbeyy]

I remember my phone call I got when I got my current job! after months of being unemployed, finding my previous job which ended up being incredibly toxic, and constant applying, interviewing, and rejections I finally got the job and it is everything I wanted and more so far. So the joy in this video along with clips of your journey resonate so much!!! Congrats!!!! and this is a reminder that it is possible for everyone!!!

[@FirstGenMoney]

awww thank you SO much :) :) yesss you know exactly that feeling!

[@GGGThree]

Loved that you were persistent and did not give up. This unwelcome unemployment has provided you with many lessons that will set you up for a better future

[@FirstGenMoney]

yes exactly!! thank you so much :)

[@kimaaiyo]

[@rusmw]

One of your text comments is so true. A unique period, and it does impact deeper than people realise - your relationships, especially with a partner. Strong will survive, and come through the other side even stronger.

[@FirstGenMoney]

You're right, you have to feel 'your feelings' , because they are yours after all. This job market is really something else. Good times don't last forever and this shit show won't last forever either and we'll be back to better times.

[@FirstGenMoney]

[@dynamo3059]

noice. i was laid off 18 months myself in the covid pandemic, wouldn't have survived without that enhanced unemployment crap they did. jobs is a double edge sword tho, if u get a bad one u can easily be hating life worse than being unemployed -_-. not worth it to just take anything

[@megaawesomedaisy]

Ahhhh!!!!

[@sneakyninja5802]
