The WTF are u doing with your life thread

[Brienneoftarth]

I work as a planner at an advertising agency. Generally unfulfilling because I do nothing all day, but I think there's going to be some shake up in my department that will put me into a different position and get me working. which should be good.

[Bislane]

smells like teen optimism in here...I could write up all the shit that's been going wrong lately but I'd feel weird and more out of place so I'll sum things up by saying my diorz are starting to give me a muffin top a year into them

Quit my job as a visual merchandiser for a large urban footwear/fashion chain based in Bmore 3 months ago, packed all my stuff in my car, and drove across the country to San Francisco, where I'm now living in my sister's spare room. Still unemployed and trying to find a job out here or up in Portland with an apparel and/or footwear company.

Interesting, most of the people I know who go into medical do it for a mass interest, or have a passion for it. Don't really know of any who got in it just for the cash, and have stuck through it for a long period of time. Just a personal observation though

[fallen angels]

graduated college over 5 years ago. first job out of college paid shit but got my foot in the door. while i was there i got some experience, stressed out regularly, and aged. Bounced after a year. Then i went abroad on my own to do some soul searching. after 2 months abroad i didnt find what i was looking at the time. got a job offer back home. returned home and started new job. paid 50% more than previous job, better working environment, got promoted. cruised there for 2 years but company started to go under, and got a job offer from somewhere else, so i jumped ship.

been at this current job for 2 years. pays twice as much as my first job. lots of travel oppurtunity. got my own house, just got a new car. that's about it.

no big plans for the near future. time kinda blends together and flies when you get used to the working grind daily routine.

advice (based on my experience): oftentimes connections are more important than just qualifications when applying for a job. utilize that network.
