So the last time I wrote about my job I was hopeful. :) Now. Not so much. I'm a temp. That blog was almost 2 and half years ago! And I still don't have a real adult job! If your saying WTH? I know times are tough. They are even tougher when you refuse to work for less than $9.
I don't know where I got the idea that I would get a degree and get a job fresh out of college making $15 an hour. I must have lost my mind. How dare I think of such a thing w/o PH.D. Those people get paid real money -_- yeah right. I might attach the artical about the lawyer who has her own cleaning business in NYC to make ends cuz no one is really hiring lawyer right now. I just might.
The jacked up thing is, all the things you heard about getting a good job are true! Yes it is all about who you know! Yupe I said it. It's about who know. Now of course there is more to it than just knowing the CEO or preforming sexual favors for the right person. Side note: I don't know anyone who's stellar sexual performance got them their dream job. I honestly don't. Also it would be good if you can actually do the job, or be trained to do it.
If you know the right people, you will have a decent job or even the idea of your career path in no time. It's all about networking in the right circles. Also being a decent person works in most people's favor, even though that's not always the case. This is were the snake supervisior usually comes and smiles at you. Grrr. I digress
I've found that most people who are working in a certain field are only *snapping of fingers* that far away from someone who can help them get to where they want to be. With all of that being said GO TALK TO SOMEONE
There are moments in life were you have to figure out what's going on. No seriously what's going? Am I living an Outstanding life or am I just Stand out; being an offie or weirdo. Sometimes you can own that moment. Other times... Not so much. In this spot you get to peek at me and my world. I laugh hard and cry. Then sometimes I'm just confused.
