Comment on Have you ever gotten jerked around like this trying to get a job?
Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 13 hours agoIt’s on my horizon. I just finished putting my partner through university for 3 years. It’s been a lot of fun watching them go from having a job that makes them miserable most days to having them bring home nice stories every day.
We’re still getting over the tuition debt, but once we do we’ll be looking to find me some work that feels more meaningful. For now I need to stay in the traces while I can.

Just wanted to say “hell yeah” to both putting your partner through school AND having a partner that’ll do the same. Didn’t go so well for me when I went that route, haha

We’re lucky to have a deep friendship in each other. I think the trick with marriage really is just to be good friends more than anything else.
Or at least I hope so, it’s the only trick I’ve got.
