Jobs
In my lifetime, I have had only 2 real jobs. Real as in I worked in an office. I worked in a call center and then I worked on a health and lifestyle magazine. Writing has always been my passion, but in our country, it's hard to get a job as a writer especially if you're a writer with a Psychology degree rather than a Journalism or Writing degree. Why I decided to take Psychology in college is still a mystery, I guess I thought I'd be a better writer, and besides, we had a some classes that covered writing and literature, and I do believe that writing is not something you can just learn to do, you have to have it in you, you know? I mean look at Stephenie Meyer, she didn't have any professional writing skills and yet she managed to write books that were turned into movies and people of all age groups go ga-ga for. So, while waiting for my big break as a writer, I worked for a company that offered call center solutions. Basically, it was like telemarketing, and it was hard because we had to work at nights when it was daytime in the US, where our clientele was based. B made me quit after sometime because he didn't think that the stress was worth it, plus the company I worked for didn't pay us on time and sometimes, not at all, so that was a problem. They closed shortly after I left. Some of my co-workers filed law suits against the bosses, but I don't think anything ever came out of it. After that job, I got to be an editor for a lifestyle and health magazine. I loved working there, but decided to quit after only a year, because I just had Lucas and I couldn't handle the stress. After that, I started blogging again, and the rest as they say is history. How many jobs have you had?
Yay!
Yes, my boss thinks someone will actually fall for that one.
