Oh hello again! It’s been a year from my last angsty post and i now got a new job. Yey right? Wrong.
I used to think that transferring jobs is the solution to a toxic work life. So i tried my luck, shifted careers and landed a new job. Surprisingly, my new job is as toxic as the old one. So could the problem be me?
Well, according to my mother, yes i am the problem and not the job. She said that i can jump from 1 job to another but i will always have the same issues anywhere i go because there is no such thing as a dream job.
Work is work and it naturally comes with pressure, she says. It is up to you to adjust, and apparently in my case, downgrade a bit. According to her, i should slow down and realize that i am young and no matter how hard i work i will only be as much worth as my salary.
Wise, reality-biting words, huh? But it makes a lot of sense. I guess my dream job will be the one of my making. So instead of hitting the job market yet again, armed with my resume, i should rather be looking for something worth going to work for in the current one that i’ve got.
