Vanity Post! I got a promotion and a 20% raise!
Today I went from Extreme Poverty to WIC and Electric assistance ONLY! I am staying with the same company and my rate of pay went from $8.73/hr. to $10.51/hr! Although I still may not make very much, my commute will be shorter (saving gas money) and I will be back in the Accounting field in which I am persuing a Bachelor's Degree. YAY! I am so excited!

19. shiraz is cheaper than rum
bottles for 7 dollars that are pretty decent if you put a bit of salt in it

20. Not where I live
Anything with a cork seems to cost double, lol. Repukes like to keep liquor cheap and anything sophisticated (like wine) taxed to hell.

Wonderful news!
Congratulations on the whole lot -- here's hoping the saying is true and good things come in threes. If so, you've still got two more great surprises waiting on you. :)

Of course your flattery could get ME somewhere.

23. Congrats!
You are now working poor instead of working dirt poor! (Oh, I forgot this is only a myth.) You must have been working your ass off lately, I'm glad they noticed! Enjoy!!!
