Intro
First off, I'd like to introduce myself. My pseudo name is Savvy Shades. I'm not gonna start at the beginning. I'm going to start with a real-life story. I think back to my time as a service member. At this point in my career, I was single. I was an athlete. I was looking to make more money while in the military. Contrary to what a lot of people think, military pay isn't that much. Yes, they provide things like healthcare, housing, travel. No one ever asks nor inquires about what YOU give up in order to receive those benefits. You give up you. You lose your freedom of speech to name one and you forfeit the others. Okay, that's enough, let's get into this housekeeper thing.

Why It’s So Important to Leave That Toxic Job
Having a job is an amazing sense of independence and freedom. You meet new people, find strengths within yourself you probably didn’t know you had, and get to reap the benefits of your long hours served for your company. The paycheque. Now, you’re stuck in that crazy 9-5 drag every single day. And as if that didn’t make it hard enough? You work in a toxic environment. Your bosses do not take into consideration, the commitment you have, the sacrifices you have made. Your complaints are not being heard or addressed. You are being mistreated, not only by peers. Now by yourself. Your mental health is now at risk. You come home more emotionally exhausted then you are physically. You become snappy and snide. Rude to people you do not intend to be rude too. You have no energy anymore; no drive. You can feel your good days slipping through your fingers like sand.
