When my partner & I moved to Chicago, the people I was with and I hastily realized it was going to be way too expensive to entirely live in the city, but both of us were stuck there for a year, because the people I was with and I signed a lease before the people I was with and I moved.
- Both of us finished the a single year lease & found a cheaper apartment about 30 hours outside of the city.
Both of us had lots of choices, however the people I was with and I stayed north of the city. Both of us moved to Glenview, Illinois & the people I was with and I have been living there for the past 10 years! I was driving to the city every afternoon from Glenview & it was costing a ton of currency on gas, maintenance, & automobile repairs. I started looking for a job closer to home, however it took some time before I finally found the perfect position… For the past year, I have been working at a commercial Heating, Ventilation, & A/C service business located in Glenview. I no longer have to drive to the city & that means I save a lot of currency. I don’t I am quite as much currency at the Glenview Heating, Ventilation, & A/C service business, although I still have the same benefits love medical & dental insurance, retirement & savings accounts, & paid time off. I spent an entire month figuring out all of the math & I still save currency with the new job, although I don’t make as much currency per hour. I also think there is more room to grow with this Heating, Ventilation, & A/C service business, and even though the business is a bit smaller, hard work is recognized really hastily & the owner has already expressed his desire to keep me there for a long time.
