Netizen Buys Cake to Celebrate First Salary
SALARY CELEBRATION – A netizen celebrates his first salary with his favorite Red Ribbon Black Forest cake after a tough season.
Recently, Reddit user Ok_Addendum3249 shared a photo of a Red Ribbon Black Forest cake, his favorite, which he bought to celebrate receiving his first paycheck at his new job. For many, it might seem like a small thing but for him, it was a quiet victory.
The uploader had just come out of a difficult chapter in his life. After resigning from his previous job late last year due to a toxic work environment, where he was reportedly yelled at during calls.
He found himself unemployed for a few months, from December to February. It was one of the lowest points in his life, and getting back on his feet wasn’t easy.
However, things slowly turned around when he started a new job in March. Finally, on payday, he decided to treat himself to a cake.
He shared that he planned to eat the cake by himself, as a form of personal reward and celebration. The post touches many netizens who understood how hard it can be to go through a rough patch and still come out stronger.

“today I just received my salary 🥹 and bumili ako ng sarili kong cake to celebrate it
for context: Since end of last year nag resign ako sa work before holiday season- super toxic to the point na sinisigawan na ko ng mga boss ko (US clients) and wala ako work until February (pinaka low moment sa life ko).
Nag start ako sa new work ko this march and just today I received my first salary and first thing na binili ko ay yung red ribbon black forest cake na favorite ko.
Uubusin ko to mag isa Deserve natin bumili ng favorite cake natin”
