Same here, 15 years. Took a while for the career stars to align (niche scientific specialty).

That’s a bummer. I frequently get manicures there and it lasts at least a month so it’s worth the money for me

I've been keeping an eye out for the local big names but they all want degrees for things I've already been doing for years. I keep getting screwed by fake jobs. 3 so far I've gotten the job only for the pay to be no where close to what i was told in the being.

I'll keep an eye out at my company. Entry level postings opens up fairly frequently with a large company like mine

Customer service management or any entry level office job. Some guy was trying to shoot me over hamburgers and I need out of fast food. I've already been handling all the back office paperwork purchase ordering on boarding training. I know how to do all of this over several different businesses and I've got the phone voice of a robot.

Shockingly, it’s possible to both grasp something and be annoyed by it.

4 years but I was spending the weekends in richmond anyway so
also a lakeside boy (as in he grew up in lakeside) told me that there's an urban legend in richmond that unless you leave via "the old indian trail" (which is Parham), you'll be back.

First time 1.5 years. Second time 10 months. Once you live here is calls you back and when you come back you wonder why you left.
