On my new path
Hey Live journal,
I welcomed 2019 with ferocity and a determination to make much more of myself and to take my career the way I wanted it to go.
I am here to tell you I made it. I am officially an HR administrator starting next week.
Ever since October I cracked down and dug into this HR path. I did a small study program online to see if this is truly what I wanted. I enjoy learning about employment laws, recruiting, how to treat employees. My old company really put a passion in me for how a company should treat their employees and support them. The people at the bottom feed the top.
In March I said goodbye to my job I was miserable in. I quit. I got myself some severance pay and left that place on my terms. I had had enough of those people. Of working in a ostracizing environment where everyone around me spoke Russian. I had enough of getting screamed at by drivers and no one appreciating the valuable role I played working with those drivers. I was tired of not getting a deserved raise. I was tired of the owner's obsessive camera stalking, clock watching. People don't deserve to feel obsessively monitored at work. I was tired of the poor management by people without a background in management. I am not someone who likes nepotism.
Next week I'll start my new position. The upped pay and growth potential are just the start of a higher quality of life for me.
I hope that this position will allow me to grow career wise the way I want. I hope sometime I will help employees be satisfied and happy with their jobs.
I want to get my HR certificate soon. Need to do more studying. Then I want to return to doing some sort of volunteering outside. Maybe the local state park would be fun. Australia is on the horizon too. With all my vacation time I want to travel a bit now. No holding back. Its time to see the beautiful reefs, forests, mountains.
I'm listening to KH music and I am so happy. I'm glad I kept at it even when it was a struggle every day to figure out what I wanted or what path career wise I wanted. I'm glad I spoke up for myself.
Raid time!
