While the straightforward answer to achieving our dreams might be a degree and well-fitted clothes, not everyone walks down the same street. One Slovakian woman in the UK is proving that there might be more roads to success than just the usual degree from a prestigious school.
Who Is The Trailblazer?
Diana Takacsova is a 34-year-old who had no idea how her life would pan out after she faced financial hurdles early in life.
What Does She Do?
Living in St Albans, England, Diana is now living her dream life while working as a fuel tank driver for Hoye. For those unaware, Hoye is a firm that specialises in bulk logistics for the chemical, petroleum, food and gas industries.
How Much Does She Make?
Diana¡¯s basic salary is a hefty 55K pounds (nearly Rs 58 lakh) per year and this also includes her London allowance as she lives in Hemel Hempstead. On top of all this, her job also allows her to work towards earning bonuses and benefits worth 2,000 pounds (Rs 2.10 lakh)
Why Is It A Big Deal To Her?
Diana grew up in a modest village in Slovakia with her small family consisting of her mother, father, and older brother. In a conversation with The Sun, Diana admitted that even with limited financial means, she spent a happy childhood in the Slovakian village.
She revealed that they lived paycheck to paycheck and never had much luxuries to bask in. From the age of 14, Diana did numerous part-time jobs like selling ice cream, working on a shop floor, and helping out on the local farms. She reminisced, ¡°I remember as a relatively little girl thinking: ¡®I love driving¡¯. My interest in trucks and big vehicles just grew from there.¡±
However, Diana could not study much as she got pregnant at the age of 21 and had an adorable son in 2010. After a tough few years, she moved to the UK in 2014. She had a split with her husband and left her son back in Slovakia.
After much hard work, Diana landed a job in Hoye. ¡°I now spend my working week delivering much-needed fuel across the south-east of England. It¡¯s a job that I love,¡± reflected Diana.
