I know you think I'm career-hopping but that's really not it. What happened with the 2nd job was a conflict of interest. I wasn't interested in them anymore. But, onto better and brighter things.
My 3rd job, and hopefully so for a long time, is wonderful! I am working as an advertising sales executive (sounds fancy huh?) at a national publishing house called Portfolio. I sell advertising in annual business publications.
It's difficult, and at times I wonder if I can really do this, but no matter what, I am grateful for a job, a place to come to every day with people I enjoy spending time with. I have an opportunity to speak a lot, and for those who know me, you must think I'm in heaven! I have an opportunity to make good money and learn a new skill, as well as use some of the skills I attained during my studies. At the moment, I couldn't ask for a better place to have landed up at.
After all this, it still astounds me that some people are still so fussy about the job they have. Being unemployed for two months was a dark hour. I cannot say it was my darkest because I still had everything I needed. I felt bound and restricted, my hands were sort of tied and it was altogether a kak feeling. So I am very happy things have changed for the better now.
That doesn't change the fact though that I can't believe I still have to be in the office for another hour and a half!!!!
I trust I am not alone in feeling this way. Will keep you posted.
