Confused and frustrated
It's a confusing time. I've been researching companies and trying to catch hold of various people to talk to them. I'm revamping my CV for the millionth time and I'm getting fed up of it. Everyone seems to be an expert on it, except me. I know I asked for it, but the later ppl I've asked push their opinions a lot harder, as if theirs is the only way. It's MY life on a piece of paper, thank you very much. Hmph. I should have taken that 100 buck bet.
Besides CV aggravations, I've been getting conflicting information about different companies, which is making it even more confusing. Coupled with the fact that certain key elusive people I'm trying to get hold of are.. yup, you guessed it, elusive.
Parental pressure is certainly not helping matters. My dad is visibly getting irritated and isn't helpful with any input. I've stopped asking for his input, but he's still giving me his version of "input" which is basically a rant about how I've had a year to think about this and just take any bloody job, damnit! My mum toggles between being supportive enough to leave me alone and nagging me to death and forcing me to revamp my CV for the millionth time.
I believe one of her favourite phrases that she used to say to me as a kid was "vomit blood" in chinese. Certainly apt for me in this situation.
