I had a job already and it not on the same topic but I asked for my boss a raise because I have a family and we needed more, not because I legally could work. So 2 weeks went by and there were rumors I was going to leave because I could work somewhere else. The next day after I heard what rumors where going around he called and told me what I was going to do?I told him I wasn't planning to change jobs but I would do anything for my family even if it took I work a second job. He simply said sell that junk car of yours it gonna break down and then you will be in the hole with a junker(01 Honda accord 191k salvage title...yea kind of junkie.) a couple days later my car breaks down timing belt isn't working $800 in repairs but car is worth $2000 tops. I luckily decided to sell it the mechanics assistant that had the same car and need some parts from mine and we decided on $1500. I told my boss I was looking for a car with $1500. He asks me what do you really want. I said a car that wont break down and big enough for a family of 4. He calls me that same night and asks what color car I wanted with the money I gave him(gave him the money cuz he has connections.) the next day at work he gets there and starts to record me on his phone and asks me to walk outside to the parking lot. I follow him to see the surprise of my life. A brand new 2013 Hyundai Sonata Silver!!! I was in disbelief. So he used the money for the down payment and it turned out that he was going to make the payments and also pay the insurance on the car ($500 a month total) Its a lease for 3 years but at least I have peace of mind about driving a good car with my Cali drivers license which I have been wait with all you fellow dreams for years! I know its not paying me directly but its an expense I don't have to worry about and gave me a company credit card for gas allowance and emergencies. So blessed right now it took a lot of work, sweat, tears and pain, but its starting to get better and the only way now for me if up. I came from the lowest and I hope my story inspires you to keep at it and you never know what great things are to come.
