If the mountain will not go to Muhammad…

Published by desiitaly under Job Market, My life Edit This

After almost one month, I am back, not to the normality, but here on my blog.

My personal situation is still pending, but I am trying to be strong and continue to look for a job, while trying to wait to get the chance to prove that I am sincere, very sorry for what happened and willing to sort out everything, at least with him because I love him to death, but I hope with time also with his family.

I titled this entry in this way because it is just the case to tell it: “if the mountain will not go to Muhammad, then Muhammad will go to the mountain“.

It is exactly what I am trying to do.

My mother’s friend asked a few times to her friend about my job application as merchandiser and she told that my CV is in pole position for an interview, but maybe they are not needing someone in this period and anyway I can not wait for too much time.
Yesterday morning I wanted to browse the job offers on Infojobs.it (if you are interested, you must know that it is also available for Spain and Mexico, reacheable at the url http://www.infojobs.com and they offer jobs also in foreign countries, just give it a try, for me it is fantastic) and I found two interesting ads, so I immediately sent my application.
You know what? After one hour I received a call from a job agent near Bologna which asked me my availability. I replied positively and she assured me to send my CV to the company and to let me know about an interview.

So yesterday I thought a lot about something which always caused me discussions in the past with my parents about the kind of job which I should consider, I guess it is all about different points of view.
Well, first of all now I am not in the right position to be picky and I actually do not mind what kind of job I can have, I only need to work and earn money, while proving that I very much want to live a simple serene life with my boyfriend, being a good person.
Then I absolutely do not judge any kind of job because I firmly think that every job is great if it is honest.
What I want to say is that I do not mind to be a secretary or a labourer, because the job should be only considered as something which allow us to live decorously and for me it should not be seen as the reason of our life!!

That is why I am waiting to tell to my parents that maybe I found a job:

- because they still need to call me for the job interview;
- because that job will be as char in some companies in my surroundings.


my personal shot

Now the question comes spontaneously: Do you have a bias against some kind of jobs or do you consider everything as an opportunity, like I do?

P.S. Thanks a lot for your friendship, I am ok, sorry if I did not have the time and the right mood to reply personally to each of you, you are in my heart and I hope to see you all here again. See you soon, my friends!
