New job options....

Feb 29, 2008 11:21

I currently have a job I enjoy, I get to sit on my butt and check email, perhaps answer a couple questions like "How do I take a screen shot?". I am however looking for a job that I can pay off a couple debts with. There are two in particular that sound interesting. One is being a bill collector (a little ironic I know) a job which I was told might be too stressful for me but it pays $9 an hour. The other is working at a place called Progressive Youth, the job would entail working with troubled teens it only pays $7 but it sounds like something I really want to do and the hours are fantastic. The latter job I have been told would be too stressful, I am too nice for it, and being "troubled" myself it would be hard to take and other troubled people could easily take advantage of me.

I want to clear the air here for all the doubters. I have gone through very troubling times, not only these past 3 years but my entire life. I have made mistakes and let people who had more power than I take advantage of me. Although this all has happened, I would like to believe that I have grown in maturity and become stronger. I think that I have healed enough to be able to help people. I have been though most of what these kids are going though in some degree. I am determined to at least apply for this job and I will not let anyone stand in my way. For the first time in 2 years I have lived in one home for over six months! I have been dating a wonderful man for 10 months. I am happy and working on being happier and I am not using drugs or alcolhol to get there. I have recovered from a pretty serious illness.  I own a car. I am going to a University, I am acomplishing the things that two years ago I didn't think were even possible for me. So please, become more supportive if you aren't already. I am an amazing person (that's the first time I have ever been able to call myself that), and I can do anything, ANYTHING I want to do I am there. And no, I am not too nice. I can be assertive and at times I have been very mean.

I am hopeful I will get the job, I can do it. But if anything I am hopeful my life is going somewhere wonderful, no one and no thing can stand in the way.
