When the day arrives that I should be sitting in my coffin, there will be things that I never understood, wanted to ask and etc. Something that I don’t get is Career. It is One Word than makes most student leaving high school, graduates entering the working world and working people keep thinking. Sometimes, we live life so routine. I dislike boredom. I prefer to be a workaholic than dealing with boredom. Sometimes, I see people dressed up in suit,tie and briefcase look so dull and mundane in their life. But on the con tray to their appearance the look extremely well groom and smart. I have a balance circle of friends who has a career in their graduate field and some not. Those who work in their graduate field tend to have a dull life unless they are workaholic. But those who work not within my studying field then to enjoy life. They know slightly more what makes life. Currently, I refuse to one of those who fall into Career. People say, its when you enter the working world then you know what life is. I have yet to listen of hear someone say ‘ it’s when you enter the Career world then you know what life is. My perspective is one can have a career but one’s experience might only be build or happen within the career ladder and the 4 walls in your ofice. I want a job in many industry but when I take my last breathe I know my career is Experience. I am not bothered if one thinks that experience is not a career. It is a subjective statement. Everyone has the right to think differently. You may feel sorry for me that this girl here has yet to think what she wants for her career but I in my logical mind wants a career in Experience, Mind exploring, Sympathy, Empathy, Making a Difference, Standing up for something, Volunteering and etc. Perhaps you are thinking I am weird. Some of the work that I would like to do in my life is to be a Librarian, Receptionist, Retailing, Volunteer, Teaching, and the list goes on. If I have fail you, I am sorry but don’t be too proud of me because I am not one of those human who has given a thought about career and ambition.Just be happy for me because I am happy. My all time favourite quote about job, work and career is Aristotle – Pleasure in the job puts perfection in the work.
I don’t believe that the public knows what it wants, this is the conclusion that I have drawn from my career – Charlie Chaplin
It is not necessarily about what career you pick. It’s about how you do what you do – Cory Doctorow
