Job application

Tomorrow, I will be going for the first job interview of my life. Thereafter, I will go the second job interview of my life. On Friday, I will go for the third job interview of my life. Thereafter, I hope to land one or two of the jobs, depending on pay and time management. My hopes are best for the bank job, though it’s working time is the weekend. Firstly, it will reflect better in my resume that I have worked for a bank, even though I do not think they will give their temp workers big responsibilities. I’m hopeful, because the timing of the job is not the most appealing, occupying all of the weekends of my holidays (and most people’s). However, I still feel its better than my regular friend’s job. Now, pay would be a great factor too, and of course whether they will accept me or not.

The other interview is a 5-day work week job. I do not know what is its job scope. The lady said I registered for a financial exec job, and she asked me for an interview. “By all means, just go!” That’s my mentality. People are also choosing me too, so I might not get it either. Anyway, I should practise my interview skills, haha… When I registered with Recruit Express, the lady (younger than me) said I looked like a shy person, so she asked me whether I am able to accept the sales job. What a great first impression! Lucky I did. That was my first normal job. I took it for the sake of money, but I got more in return. Jobs are not just about money. They could be about pride, service if you are really that great a person, self-improvement, job-filtering selection, so you know next time what kind of career to not look into, and many more.

The last one is even weirder. It’s a freelancing job on bank loans. Sounds rather sleazy to me, and the company is some unknown company. I will just go to see what kind of jobs people offer to people, and see what is up the company’s sleeves.

Last thing to note, friendship is valuable for its quality, not its quantity. I am quite confident to say that I have quality friends, and not quantity. I keep quiet nowadays because I want to shut up, and if people, you all see me not being quiet, sorry, because I am still at the changing phase. Other people that think I am too quiet, I am sorry too. I am still at a changing phase, so my quietness might look like a form of 'sianess' to you all. It really is not. I guess I do not know how to be quiet yet. It’s not for anyone but myself. I have said my piece, and I do think I have said enough crap to last me a lifetime. I will now hand the mike over to someone else that has a better use with words. Peace to my mind. The world can never have peace.
