First Job

 Hi, to whoever reading this.



Today is 25th of May 2021. I'm in middle of a pandemic. It is a mess. Everyone's struggling. Everyone's surviving. I'm one of them. Not as covid-19 patient though. It's been a year and so since Covid-19 hit the ground. Me and my family members are still covid-free, at least until now. I'm grateful. I don't really having problem in social distancing, not meeting people, not being able to go to parties or any sort of that because I recognised myself as an introvert. I enjoy having time of my own, doing my things and literally living my life, peacefully. 

I just graduated December last year. My degree year was a blast. I enjoyed every moments of those 2 years. I've learned so many things and I'll forever grateful for everything I've experience throughout my studies, both diploma and degree. I'll forever thank God that I entitled to get a scholarship from YTN because I'm a daughter to their staff. I'll forever grateful that I graduated with first class and got exception to pay for my educations fees and expenses. I'll forever remember every happy moments I had with everyone I met throughout my study years. Thank you everyone and thank you God.

Well, I face some struggles too. During internship, I've started looking for a job. I had high hope. I was looking for a job that's far from home. I wanted to live on my own. I know I am capable of that. I was hopeful. But pandemic hit me like a truck. I couldn't go anywhere. Even though I land on a job interview of company that I know I could get, they just couldn't accept me, because we cannot travel! (yah maybe i'm not what they're looking for lol) But I blame the pandemic. 

So I looked for a nearby job. I applied to work as a promoter at a Moms and Baby Boutique. TBH, I didn't know where the boutique is, I didn't even try to learn anything from the company. But I got accepted anyway. I started to work at the same day I was interviewed. Obviously not because of my degree or diploma, but because they were understaff hahaha. I am now 5 months working there. As far as I know, I'm comfortable. I got decent salary. I live nearby. I got a transport. Staffs are good too. But I want more.

I'm not demanding. I'm a diploma and degree holder. I know I'm not fit as a promoter. I want to work in my field. I want to use my expertise and skills. I expect more than decent salary. I went to few interviews. I once got accepted as admin cum finance executive with RM2000 monthly. It's quite tempting but I rejected. The office is only 15 minutes away and I don't want that. I want to travel. I don't want to live in my parents' house. So, here's to another job hunting. I'll come back writing about my new job soon.
