Share your journey to making six figures. Have you achieved that milestone yet? How did you do it? Share some advice and tips with others in reaching that level. I haven't made it there yet.
This year I made 72k. If all goes to plan hopefully I can get to 80k in the next few years then I'll be able to look for roles that will put me near 100k.

Is it true?
I would really appreciate if anyone can shed some on light on this.

I finally was able to convince my principal that we need a consistent math intervention at the MS level (grades 5-8). (Right now, we are just "doing our own thing," which isn't helping students progress much.) Does anyone have any suggestions? It would be beneficial to have some sort of progress monitoring tool as part of the program, if possible. Our classes run roughly 55 minutes (which is too long for an intervention, in my humble opinion).

Thanks for any advice.

Additional Posts in Retail & Hospitality

Thinking of switching employers. Do you think bigger retail stores (the ones that have several locations) are easier or harder to work at than little hole-in-the-wall grocery stores (which is all I've ever done)? It seems like the larger chain stores would have more downtime, but I'm wondering if anyone could give some input.
