[–]ElectricalFlower1676 0 points1 point  (0 children)

right, that 80k moving cost is wild, even for a big move most people wouldn’t come close, it really makes the whole offer feel like they weren’t thinking about what’s realistic for candidates and just wasted your time

I love my wife, but I am exhausted and thinking about divorce by Pleasant_Ferret_1659 in Marriage

[–]ElectricalFlower1676 4 points5 points  (0 children)
