mood: a little bit disappointed
Soon approaching August.
I was
really hoping to have a fulltime job by now.
So far, I've only had 2 job interviews. The biggest problem seem to be too many bloody people applying for the position. The last job interview that I went too had over 300 people apply...
I didn't even get a call back from it.
That's why I have been thinking about going back to study to be doing something; yet, I can't really afford to either. So here's another post to ponder my thoughts on.
I'm not letting this get me down again, I have a casual job that I don't mind, even though it was the same as what I was doing in Western Australia and I was starting to hate it. I like the working environment. It's because, I'm not there all the time, it doesn't bother me so much.
My attitude has changed towards customer service, that's what has changed within me. If I don't try my hardest for the customer then I haven't really done my job, now have I? And it has to be the same for every customer.
Another thing was my living conditions were getting down also. I am alot more stable since living with Dan. Drama, very rare occurs and I'd rather it stay that way.

Recently, I have been thinking a lot of about careers and what people have to do in their jobs from day to day.
Yesterday, I thought about being a Nurse and asking myself,
"what if I was a Nurse?". Honestly, I think I would make a great Nurse, I'm very gentle, I can sympathetic and I am a nice person. I don't think I'd like the 'blood' and 'death' side of it, but that would come with the job. I'd get used to it.
Recently, Dan's oldest sisters husband has joined the police force. He had a talk to Dan about what is involved in joining. A few days ago, Dan and I spoke about what if we both joined, we could motivate each other. Motivation is a big thing, it's what keeps people going and pushing on. But, really, what would be the odds of both of us getting in? There's always hope though.
Really, all these jobs were just a thought at this stage. I really can't afford to stop working and study. I wouldn't have to do that if I joined the police force.

You can be what ever you want to be when you grow up

I am still thinking about I want to do as a career...Still thinking about being a nurse if I can get in without needing a degree. There is a possibly I could get one through a traineeship,
(although, I have already done one before)
The huge draw back would be the really long shifts. At least, I'd be getting a good amount of money.
Still the hardest choice for some in life: Is what do you want to be when to grow up?
Some people just seem to 'just know it', a lot have to work it out and spend a long time doing that...
As we grow older, it seems harder and harder to achieve what we really want to be. Depending on what is it though.
