The Job Hunter
I’m still hoping that I can find a job this year. Two salaries are always better than one. After grocery shopping yesterday, we already spent most of the husband’s salary. Mind you, there’s only a small amount of “wants” versus the “needs” in there. But then again, that is not a full paycheck. I don’t want to keep on ranting about the lack of money because we do have money just less of what we need right now. More than the thought of buying more things, I’m more keen on saving. This trying times, we both learned that we are perfect for each other. One is good in budgeting while the other is good in saving. We plan to continue on doing that even when things are bountiful. That will really help us in fulfilling our long term plans like buying our own home.
For Hire
Recently, I have been really missing working in the corporate world. After two years of being a stay-at-home wife (not by choice), I’m so ready to start working again in an office. I miss the whole office environment – having a job, coworkers who eventually become your closest friends and of course, pay day! Unfortunately, it is quite difficult to look for jobs right now but I’m still hopeful in finding one this year. If there is one thing I’m quite thankful for for not working is that I get to spend loads of time with the husband and also I was able to expand my hobbies.
Worst Jobs
This is of course a matter of personal opinion and preference. I used to complain a lot about my previous jobs. Yeah, I’m a stay-at-home wife right now. During my recent job search, I just suddenly started pondering about jobs that I will definitely get into. I salute folks who accepted these jobs and as what they always say, “It’s a dirty job, but someone has to do it.”
Embalmer
The thought of a room full of cold dead bodies is enough oto scare me. Removing body parts is way worse and not just my cup of tea.
Elevator Operator
This job makes me claustrophobic. The idea of being trapped in a tiny little space and pushing buttons like a robot is just plain old boring.
Construction Worker
After all the laborious tasks, the pay you get can’t barely feed your family. The workplace is also accident-prone and you get exposed to materials that might have deadly chemicals like asbestos. After several years, you need to hire Mesothelioma lawyers because your doctor diagnosed you with mesothelioma cancer.
Crab Fisherman
I love seafood especially shrimps and crabs. Catching those nice big king crabs is not a walk in the park. Crab fishermen will have to battle out exhaustion with rough seas and bad weather.
Almost Done
I’m so proud of the husband. He is almost done with school. By next month, he can start working on a new profession. I know that it was hard for him and I appreciate the effort and hardwork to give us a better life. Things will get better soon and I know it will. More than likely his new job will get us health insurance since it is in the medical field. Hopefully this year I can get a job too so we can start saving for our future home. Then once we have kids, we can decide on which of those term life insurance quotes to get.
Job Hunter
My goal next year is to be able to work and help out the Husband in our finances. I have no idea still what kind of job I will apply for. I want to try something new other than my old crappy call center jobs. The Husband doesn’t want me to work for retail and often advises me to choose one that will exercise my mind. I think I prefer to work from home for a change. Anyway, we don’t have a second car yet for me so it would be wise to do home based jobs plus it will save us money for gas. I bet next year will be a tough time for everyone job hunting. Not only am I going to compete with the newly graduates but also with the people who has been laid off this year. I hope I can get a good paying job like those people working for a public relations firm San Diego.
