get a new job that I love

My current manager was asking around to see who would be staying and would go. I preferred to keep it quiet, but it turns out I’m not the only one with second thoughts.

It was interesting because a co-worker who I really like (although I like everyone within my immediate work group) was kinda sad. She also talked about being worried she “settled” although she thought it was more because for the most part, she really likes the people here too. She also said the next several months will become more exciting and that I should stay for it. I don’t know. In my heart I don’t think so.

i want a new job.
i’ve made my cv again and lettre de motivation.
now i’m off to grab the next taf.

Yep. Sometimes it can be really funny seeing how sloppy/messy other people’s cover letters/resumes look like. Other times I feel so woefully inadequate in comparison to what other people do (who has time to be board members and volunteer and interpreter and who knows what else…)

I don’t like my current job. I’m looking on job boards for postings I like. I’m terrible at networking though (I feel so shy…), so this might be a little hard with the “impending” recession going on…

I’m bored at my current position. There’s little chance for advancement and the place is currently under a hiring freeze (they’re cutting people, really…). The benefits have been hard fought for and increasingly it’s clear temporary employees are not too important to them.

It’s going to take a while, but it will happen.

NEED TO

I’m going to apply for a job that I am qualified for, in a town far away where a good friend of mine now lives.

I’ve been torn between staying with this profession and moving elsewhere, or staying here and finding a new way of making a living.

This city isn’t doing well economically. If I had a steady job I would be more inclined to stay, but with things so uncertain I’m going to check out this possibility far away. I am hoping that Way will open.

I quit my boring job at a pretentious homeware shop and got a new job at Pizza Hut and it’s sooo much fun. I mean, kind of scary, but in a good way. All the people are awesome, and every trainee is assigned to a trained member of staff, and my trainer happens to be my best friend. It’s going well.

Maybe I can create my own job. I don’t want to say too much, but perhaps there is a digital project that I could propose, write the funding for, and work on.

I’m having a hard time getting motivated to do this. The fact that we may end up having to move out of state is holding me back. It means getting the house ready to sell (which I’ve been-slowly-doing). But I’m not doing the things I need to do, like getting my resume out there and networking. I don’t know why it’s so hard. Maybe I just hate change.
