STARTING

hellooo my name is jentry! i’m 18 years old and im not really new to lemon8 but im new to posting on lemon8:)

a little about me, i graduated in 2023, my first job after high school was actually my first job at 15. i went back to my hometown bk and was quickly moved up to a manager position. i was working 50 hour weeks, closing and needed a change so bad, it was a very toxic work environment and honestly depending on who was scheduled with me, most times i dreaded going. i decided enough was enough and i quit. i took about a 5 day gap and now im working in a factory with so much better pay, i enjoy going to work and i enjoy learning about the parts im working with daily. i felt so stuck but i kept asking the universe to bring me better and eventually it came. i believe the universe gives you exactly what you need and when. i have a dog named bellamy and a cat named doobie. bells is 4 and doobie is 2, ive been through a lot with these two and im very grateful for them, i wish they knew the impact they’ve had on me and needing to better to be better for them. i’ve always enjoyed photography and cars. my first car i bought was a 1990 honda accord, her name is razzie. that car brought me so much joy and helped me learn a lot about myself. i never knew i could have such an attachment to an object. she’s currently at the shop she needs a new transmission but i recently heard good about that so keep an eye out for posts! my car brought out a different side of photography for me, i used to be out every night taking pictures with her and if anyone would like to see them i’d be willing to make a post with my favorites. i currently drive a 02 dodge ram 1500, it was definitely an adjustment but i love my truck and i do plan on keeping both as of right now. if you read this far thank you, i appreciate you.

... Read moreWelcome to my Lemon8 journey! At 18, I'm excited to find my place in this vibrant community. After graduating in 2023, I learned valuable lessons from my first job in a toxic environment that shaped my career choices. I transitioned to a factory job with better pay, where I enjoy each day and the learning opportunities it brings. Beyond work, my dog Bellamy and cat Doobie inspire me to create a better life. My love for photography blossomed through my first car, a 1990 Honda Accord named Razzie, which taught me the joy of capturing memories. Currently driving a 2002 Dodge Ram 1500, I embrace change while keeping my passion for cars alive. Join me in sharing our stories, tips, and experiences to uplift one another!
