I have only 2 days more of holiday. Not exactly holiday, because I have
an exam on Tuesday, but still - not at work. And I just don't feel like
I want to go to work (and exam, but ok, I can survive the exam even if
I fail again). The same **** everyday. The same stupid questions, the
same problems. The same people on higher positions who are supposed to
help us, but whenever we have a question they look at us like we are
ignorant idiots and we should know everything.The same stress, the same
coming back at home very tired. The only thing I am still there is
because my boss is one of my closest friends and I feel ok around him.
The bigger boss has told me that he likes me and I have leader
qualities but I have to be more experienced to get the promotion. How
more experienced- 6 months in this *** are pretty enough to be
experienced, I think :( And the pay is not so good as it was in the
beginning - inflation.
To be honest - I liked staying at home and working all day on my online
projects - but this is not something I can gain money from. Or at least
not a lot - I had a proposition to write for an online magazine, which
was pretty cool for additional money, but not for official salary - If
I write an article everyday, I will get about 250 E, which is not
enough for the rent and eating. And I can not imagine writing an
article of 1500-2000 words every day. I may do it for a month, but I
can not think of so many interesting things to write about every
month....
The major problem is that my education is not relevant to anything
except translator and teacher . Translator - no thank you, they also
are not very paid and I hate translating thanks to the professors in
the University who managed to make me think of myself as a very stupid
and ignorant creature. Yeah, with 5 languages and a 6th on the way I
can make it to Bruxelles after a couple of exams, but spending my whole
life as a translator is definitely not my dream, even for 3000 E a
month. And a teacher - yes, that is something I would really like to do
- I like working with children, I like teaching. If I was married to a
millionaire, it would be the perfect job. Because they are not paid as
much as they deserve here (in fact no one is, but some are still better
paid), nor they receive the expected respect from parents and society.
What am I good at, except languages and computers? Listening to music,
going to concerts? :) I can try a music agency - to organize concerts,
but I still don't have the education - not a managing degree, or a
musical one. Reading books? Oh yes, my power. And so what ? I can't do
anything in a publishing house, except translating, because there is a
specialty in the Universe - Publishing, and I guess that publishing
houses take people with this knowledge.
May be some kind of small business of my own? But I don't have the money...
Stupid stupid me :(
