State of the Egoist Update: The Work Situation

Jun 26, 2008 13:09

It really does amaze me how changing job roles at work makes all the difference to one's outlook on the place.

Basically, working on the sales floor, seems a helluva lot more fun and productive than warehouse work. Despite my initial reluctance and shaky communication skills, I actually enjoy this quite considerably. Making the sale getting the bolt-ons added, matching and exceeding the targets.....

.....all in all, I feel a greater driving force selling stuff than I do lugging it around (although I still to get my own stock out whenever I can....)

As a result? I don't feel quite so full of "guh" about getting out of bed on a workday, I'm more self-motivated and the fucking boss doesn't get on my back to the same degree as before.....

None of this changes my desire to quit my job soon, but I think I might stay for just a little while longer to build up the all-important "experience" points employers scavenge for; salesperson experience at least gives me something to fall back on, should the road to what I really want get rickety for a while......

On a related note, my personal Unemployment Saving Scheme continues successfully; quite a handsome amount I've built up thus far. I'm rather pleased with myself there.....

Onward, MRDA!
