Because you know it is the "personal responsibility" crowed that help her. YEAH RIGHT!!! Personal responsibility trope == I dont want to pay any taxes to help my fellow citizens. I hardly want to pay for the infrastructure I use myself (code).

@@CynicalEmpath I've been to rehab. Some of the stories I've heard are insane. Addicts attract each other somehow. It's just this unsaid energy. Best way I heard it was from a guy hooked on coke and Roxies. Dude was like "I moved to another state and small town and I'll be damned if I don't meet the only dealer In town within the first few days being there". Not so crazy compared to other stories I've heard in regards to action, but it just proves a point that you WILL find your fix no matter where you go. You can move states or countries, but if you don't fix yourself, you will fall victim to the addiction again.
@@thejtd21 where's the line? Does a company have to make sure you can have time off for kids? What about employees without kids? Or is the line paying for every mistake you make?
@@TheWeakMinded yes, companies should make sure you have time off for kids. whenever people say ‘oh when does it end?!’ The answer is FUCKING SOMEWHERE lol. It’s about treating people right so you can work but also have a life.
@@pasta-and-heroin why even respond to the weak minded?? He already showed us he has a weak mind. Nothing is black and white (having a solid line). I totally agree with you.
My granddad stopped smoking 3 and a half packs of cigarettes a day, because he realized he could buy a new truck, with the money he would save. Not quite the same as being addicted to some of the drugs out there. Still an amazing task fueled by self desire of wanting a truck, and nothing else(not even his own health).
@Tobias Saibot I think the drugs are the racket. Unfortunately addiction is much like cancer, in the way that, if you beat it there's no guarantee that you have actually beaten it. Congrats on being free from drugs! Keep up the fight, and keep the reason strong in your heart. You're a stronger person than many I know.
At 71 my wish is; employers will learn they would not own what they have without the employees like this woman. Working at 125% never really made a difference to most places I worked. Stay yourself love. ❤❤
Oh you can see that look in her eyes… she been through some very hard times, and not out of the woods yet. Hopefully she gets to the place of being happy.
No excuses, just taking responsibility and learning from them and growing into the beautiful soul she is today. I know she's a great mom because of her journey! ❤️
That’s so beautiful to see someone who takes accountability for her past and her actions and willing to change her life for the better cause someone’s life depends on it. Bravo chica !
A real mother! I salute you young lady! There are wemon with the world at their feet that can't be bothered to mother there own children. Thank you for being a beautiful woman!
I'm a recovering addict/alcoholic from a teen into my 20s. It just happens one day when all your friends are partying and you like that fun, it just becomes a habit one day and you don't even realize it. That's the thing with addiction, no matter how bad it gets you always think you can stop anytime. But it's always tomorrow. Been sober 15 years. Got a 4 year degree and good job now. But unfortunately ppl like us is the exception. Most people relapse all their lives or just give up or die.
She really is right though. I’ve moved several times to get away from heroin, but my problems followed me wherever I went. And we all have different bottoms… Hers was having her daughter. Mine was police intervention. I finally decided to stop running from who I was and decided to dig deep. I decided to invest in a run down property and flip it. And flip it I did. I’m coming up on 2 years clean, I have an amazing girl who pushes me to do better, my family is in my life again, and I have an amazing job with a Fortune 500 company making great money and respect. When you’ve been in a position like that and finally come out of it, you are motivated to work harder than you’ve ever worked. But most people forget that after using drugs for so long, your emotions and thoughts and feelings come rolling back in all at once. Getting clean isn’t just abstaining from drugs, it’s trying to grow up in a relatively short amount of time, while also trying to get back into the work force and making amends with those you love. You legitimately have to relearn to be a human being. Most people who aren’t addicts have the luxury of growing up when they’re supposed to an working through their own character defects… those of us who are addicts are stunted emotionally. I started using at 15. I’m 36 now, and even with nearly 2 years clean I still cry at the drop of a hat, I can get extremely frustrated and upset but I’m learning ways to control it. My anxiety is crippling most days. It’s all a consequence of the life I led. But if I can work my way from the bottom and end up running my own 3 man crew in a year and a half, anyone can. If you’re just getting clean, know this… I was a trash can. I ended up in the hospital numerous times, and not because I overdosed when I got a bad batch. It’s because I was using to such a degree and ignoring my health that I ended up with anemia to the point where my bone marrow stopped producing red blood cells. I had hypokalemia to the point where my heart was in atrial fibrillation. I damaged my gallbladder and pancreas to the point where I ended up in the hospital for a week. If I can get clean, ANYONE can. You have to want to quit, you have to be ready to truly invest in yourself. And I don’t just mean you want to live. I’m talking you start aggressively seeking hobbies. Start going to the gym and lifting every day. Start working on a better job or better education. KEEP YOURSELF BUSY. Set realistic goals and keep setting new ones. Yes, I got promoted and I have a 3 man crew, but I wanna be where my boss is; 3 luxury sports cars in his garage, is able to take like 4-5 2 week vacations all over the country with his wife and kids and grandkids, drives his motorcycle up and down the east coast… he’s got tons of responsibilities but also has fuck you money.
You've been through hell and back and you're still standing! I understand. It wasn't heroin for me, but I have 15 years clean and sober. I'm so happy for you that things are so much better now. And if this lady in your life is as good as she seems she is, I hope you care for that relationship and nurture it. She sounds like a real keeper! Your story would make a hell of a book or movie. It was better than a speaker meeting! 🙏💞🙏
Fellow 12-stepper here. I know exactly what you mean about having to grow up. I just stopped at age 15 or so, and then after getting sober, realizing my immaturity etc. And don’t beat yourself up for being emotional - even the best life is full of pain - we SHOULD cry! But we don’t have to medicate, but can love and help others. Much love, -j
This woman is one employee that an employer would not like to lose being on staff. Personally, she is motivated and dedicated to provide not only for herself, but for her family, and to improve a working Bierman by learning new skills that benefit not only her but her employer. Definitely she is a future hire management employee who will benefit these companies workforce for the future.
for sum of u that comment went over ur head. "UNFORTUNATELY, I TOOK ME WITH ME" that meant a lot. as steps yo recover r, accountability, she acknowledged real accountability. too know that even tho u change/try too change ur environment/surroundings. ur still the same person fighting demons inside. and until ur ready to deal with them Nothing will change.
Don’t ever tell coworkers that you used to struggle with drugs. Even when you’re clean. I made the mistake of doing that and when I called in sick, they thought I relapsed. I even went to the hospital and got a dr’s note. The manager threw it away. I ended up leaving cos they kept blowing up my phone when I was still sick, cos they didnt believe me. I even saw the general manager asking a coworker who worked at another job with me if I used to call in sick alot at my other job. Never share your buisness.
GOOD FOR YOU ,PRECIOUS GIRL!! I AM SO VERY HAPPY FOR doing something that is probably the hardest thing you will ever do. KEEP UP THE GREAT JOB!! HOLD YOUR HRAD HIGH
This young woman earns my profound respect She didn’t know who she was talking to in terms of his position. She just thought it was another coworker. I would love to have her go and speak to young girls in middle school and high school as a reminder to make good choices. I hope you have a terrific life you’ve earned it
She still has a lot of pain in her heart I too got clean to be there for my son, it was the hardest times of my life no doubt. Shes learned a lot from her mistakes, she would blossom with the right promotions and mentors. Good luck honey, stay clean! Life is better living!
How can you not love this girl. Screwed up her life for a while but takes 100% ownership of that mistake. Tried rehab. Tried moving. nothing seemed to help. THEN she got pregnant at 18 and instead of going deeper into the darkness she told herself this was the end of the line. It was time to grow up. She's a fantastic employee and even without seeing her daughter I'm pretty sure she's a fantastic Mom as well. I'd hire her any day!!!
Deep respect for her! She clearly had a demon in her childhood that drove to drugs! I hope she finds a man that sees what an incredible woman she is! He will be incredibly lucky to put a ring on her!
Sounds like she got her head right. Props to her. I bet she's one hell of a momma.
In bed as well.
@@colorlessking. lol
Women always know what they are doing
@@michaelzero5278 you mean some women right same can be said about men.

If your child can't change you, nothing will.
God can change anyone.
That's a fact......just look at my wife.......😂😢, damnit
@@fourbyfourblazer2 wish that was true
Only if you adore your child.
I dont know this young lady,for
Some reason I applaud her.
@@DiabloDave Awe, how sad. My siblings chose drugs over their children too. I have a sense on where you're coming from.
“Unfortunately I took ME with me, so not much changed.”
I wish I had had that much insight when I was trying to get clean. Good on her, and I hope she’s doing well.
That quote revealed she definitely paid attention in rehab lol I remember sayings like that well from my time
Like myself, she learned that in 'recovery!' Bless you... I hope you're getting along fine, just as well!👍🙏
God bless you... some people won't admit it that just shows how strong you really are don't worry and keep pushing ❤❤❤❤
It’s a common saying in recovery.
You have to change your playground and change your friends!
I wish you all the happiness for you and your little girl!
The realisation of the mistakes she made, holding herself accountable, not passing on blame.
Kudos to her, she sorted herself right out, what a valuable employee!
The realization she just said being a drug sluts got her the skills she has today lol
That means shes not American because she holds herself accountable for her actions lol
Because you know it is the "personal responsibility" crowed that help her. YEAH RIGHT!!! Personal responsibility trope == I dont want to pay any taxes to help my fellow citizens. I hardly want to pay for the infrastructure I use myself (code).
@@Lobos222 Im more than happy to pay taxes for the services needed. Sounded to me like taking personal responsibility hit a nerve...
How can you say nice things like that about her you may hurt someone’s feelings lol
What a beautiful lady!! Accepts her past, accountable for the future. She's taken the lessons and turned them to blessings.
Yes she has 110 percent bless her for being a beautiful young lady who gave herself the step up to be strong then even stronger !

The saying goes, "wherever you go, there you are."
"I brought me with me." holy shit. that just hit hard. amazing she was able to pull herself back, a lot of people never do.

@CynicalEmpath that was a powerful statement. and I have to say I respect her!

The only way a drug addict stops is by wanting to stop. If they don't want it, rehab won't do shit.

She has a powerful soul. She's also gorgeous.
Props to her for changing her life for her kid. Stay strong
She impressed her boss, who probably looked out for her

In a Mother's experience she actually knew knows what she's talking about, she's an asset to society, for inside experience alone,
God bless this woman and her child. She is inspiring and I hope there's a lot of people watching this clip that take advantage of what she saying.
You gotta be honest and open about that stuff, it really helps.

From one recovering addict to another congratulations! Best decision of my life other than my wife and kids and first and foremost following Jesus
She's so beautiful... inside/outside.
She's naturally gorgeous!
Same with me, I got tired of seeing inefficiencies so I worked to prove I was the right person to fix it
So happy to see this version of her
She still has a lot of pain in her heart
I too got clean to be there for my son, it was the hardest times of my life no doubt.
Shes learned a lot from her mistakes, she would blossom with the right promotions and mentors. Good luck honey, stay clean! Life is better living!
That is a good example of why people should be promoted in a company, because of your ability and not for who you are.
Good girl and she's real😊
no matter where you go there you are.
stay strong and stay safe 🙏❤
Baby saved her life 💝
can we all give this young lady a hand because we all fall down, never give up
That is a great worker and a great mom. And if some lucky young fella was smart shes a keeper.
I wish my younger brother had this young ladies strong attitude..
Hat off to her for being able to free herself from her addictions..
Rip fingerboy
How can you not love this girl. Screwed up her life for a while but takes 100% ownership of that mistake. Tried rehab. Tried moving. nothing seemed to help.

She got to the end of the road stay sober . You can do it got 8 years sober myself keep fighting never stop no matter what..
I see the real fear and struggle in her face.its obvious she's relapsed but is in a good spot
Wisdom comes with cost of experience. “I took me with me.” She is so right. Geography is not any addicts problem.
THAT DISGUISE...
Mike was a good guy...the company culture just sucked during his tenure...
She's going to make it far in life as long as she stays the course. I wager she got a promotion by the end of this.
I'm am recovering addict God bless her I've been clean almost two years keep pushing girl
God bless you young mother! You live for your child now and you will be blessed!
She should be very proud of her self
You can see in her eyes she still thinks about it. Its painful.
She’s so pretty
"Wanting to make things better..." The key to making changes & good choices!!!
I’m happy for her, a lot of people can learn from this beautiful lady 🙏❤
Goid job lady.it's tough out there. But you came back. Hold your head high babe!!! Congrats. ❤
GREAT GOING KEEP
UP THE GREAT WORK U WILL MAKE IT GOD IS GREAT 🙏🏽🙏🏽💯❤️🌺🌺💐💐💐!!
