I found a job listing at a local newsweekly hiring for inside sales. I got the job, did it for a year and then took an administrative/middle management position. The money is the same as when I worked “outside” but my back hurts a lot less now.

I payed off over $5k in credit cards over two years. I would make the minimum payments on all 4 cards, then every month pay as much as I could on top of the minimum, rotating cards until each one was payed off.
It’s been great not paying 1/6th of my income to debts, but my credit is still badly damaged from past indiscrections. Nothing but time will fix that though.
Be strong, pay in cash or don’t get it.
I’ve only had two jobs that were ever in an actual cubicle/office setting. It’s partly my background, but also my own outdoor personality.
