Jazebelle - I love my job
|
|
I just turned 25 less than a month ago, and I've been working since I was 22. A pretty late age to start work I'd say, still I was one of the first to start working compared to my college buddies, who continued their further studies in the UK. As for me, family fund issues prevented me from going back to obtain my Bachelor's in Communications. My original plan was to go to work for a couple of years, earn the money, then continue pursuing my studies by funding myself. (Parents have been paying for them all through before.) But that obviously never happened, and I don't see it happening at all in the future. I got too comfortable. Thought to myself, why go back to school when I'm already stable now.
Anyways, almost three years in the working field, I've gone through 4 jobs, including three free lancing jobs. A lot for one who's only been working for exactly 2 years and 8 months now? I think not. I'm sure many have gone through more. According to recruitment agencies statistics, by the time an individual hits 38, he or she would have gone through at least 15 jobs throughout their lives. Probably more too.
Today I work at a recruitment agency called Manpower Staffing Services. It started off as a temp agency in Milwaukee, and then went on to become one of the biggest recruiting companies globally. (So they preach to us everyday at work, how true this is, I don't know. But we do fall into one of the fortune 500's.)
I love my job, I have never loved any other job so much. What do I do? I'm a copy writer! I basically correct job advertisements, change the words around, make them look more 'attractive' for a candidate to want to apply for a particular job. I also help the marketing team on and off in their branding and advertising stuff. Lately, I've also been handling our website. Creating very basic HTML codes, uploading images, and some basic graphic stuff. Above all this, I love my job because I can come in at 8:30am, and leave at 5:30pm on the dot. I love my job because it allows me time to surf the forums everyday! I love my job because it's only 5 minuets away from where I live. I love my job because it pays decently. I love my job because it's stress free, worry free and allows me to do just what I like. So in conclusion, I just love what I do, and when the weekends here, Monday's usually a day I look forward to, and not dread.
