Sarah's Letter
"My husband and I changed states for jobs that let us work together with great hours and pay. But before long, we noticed some shady business practices. Within just a few months, my husband was even being asked to do things that were illegal. We were crushed: We'd left everything for a business that now asked us to lie and cheat. Deciding to draw the line, we quit. While it forced us to move out of state only six months after arriving, we never regretted it. I learned to listen to my heart before my wallet; your conscience won't lead you astray."
