On the topic of work (again)

Lately all I'm concerned with nowadays is work. We had a meeting with our executive regarding how we felt about the company, our position and if we had any feedback, etc. I was able to get some more work that was unrelated to my position on the promotional side, so that made me really happy.

However it'll be a bit until I can get started on the fun stuff... and right now I'm kind of questioning myself because I am excited to have new opportunities and gain experience at work, yet I also know that I need to find a job to support myself financially...

I am picky.

I'm picky for a reason, I don't want to have a job where everyday I am miserable and hate my work, despite the pay. That just causes me to burnout and also makes my work quality subside. No one wants that. It's better to get a position that I'm comfortable with and can enjoy for a few years.

But I know that sometimes... that's not achievable... especially if you lack in experience.

The job that I applied to a while ago closed yesterday. Hopefully they'll see my application soon :)

I was going to apply for jobs today but I got so tired and took a nap. Then I woke up and just felt really lazy...

Applying for so many jobs at once is exhausting. For every job I've applied for, I try to make a distinct cover letter for that employer. I mean, I have different ideas and feelings for each job... so I choose to write differently. I don't want to just rename a few things here and there in the cover letter from a previous application... I'm sure employers can tell what a copy and paste letter is now.

I've been looking at jobs and trying to send myself emails so that I can apply for that job when I'm free. Then I go back to the job posting and realize this isn't what I'd like to be doing.... yes, it has some aspect of what I'd like to do, but the main tasks are something that I don't think I would enjoy.

There's this side of me that says perhaps I should apply anyway...

But there's also a side that says, I should put my effort into something else, something that would stimulate me and keep me interested.

It's so difficult.

Getting an interview would make me so freaking happy!

It's been 9 months since my last interview...

Tomorrow I'll apply for sure.

Just, no more invoice filing related jobs...

Also I think data entry drives me nuts.

I don't mind doing bookings... I love talking to people.
