maybe i already have a job that i love, and i’m not aware of it?
i’m teaching philosophy at the uni, which is very satisfying mentally but not financially. but i really like interacting with new students and see the light bulbs get lit above their heads as i speak. delivering some new knowledge to open minded people is great and i love it.
my other work is a very simple one – i’m a secretary (actually, a secretary’s assistant). you can do it while you’re brain-dead. not satisfying at all. but the people there are very nice to me, and the atmosphere is great, which is a very important factor. also, i don’t have to think much there, so i can save my intellectual energy to my studies.
in sum, i think i like my jobs. if i could actually get a decent paycheck it would be perfect!
