Signed offer letter on first J2, nervous excitement.

Randomly stumbled across this subreddit about a year ago and was immediately inspired. Scared about trying it out, but ran into some financial issues and then when I was lied about a big raise at J1, I decided it was time. I’ve been working on getting J2 for about 5 months now and last week it happened. Signed an offer letter and start at the end of this month. Now the stress of money seems like it will gone as I’ve doubled my income. Want to tell everyone about it, but as we know, the first rule of fight club, you don’t talk about fight club.

Not in software engineering or IT. So finding a remote job where I’m not constantly in meetings or having to speak with customers was harder than I imagined. But we’re finally here.

I’ve taken every precaution I’ve read about on here, KVC monitors, take PTO from J1 during training J2, etc. Just wanted to thank everyone that posts on here, both the good and bad, for the inspiration and hopefully will be on my way to financial freedom. Any other tips and tricks are welcomed. Appreciate whoever took the time to read this.
