The whole package
Submitted by: Pupilus
does it really matter ?I want to be very concise and to make clear that one way or another I’ve always been very passionate about my dreams, but I was not as focused as I am after my first contact with The Secret movie.
JAN-08:
-Job with good salary, higher than 90% of the job positions for my profile (young guy, few work experience)
-Living alone, far away from my girlfriend in a rented room.
MAR-08:
-The same job, not so happy about my duties and boss. Need the money to help my parents and to save. Can’t find a better salary job in the market, not even if I had double or triple the experience.
-My girlfriend got a job in my city. She moved to this city and begun to work.
APR-08
-My job was really annoying – many problems with my boss and with assigned tasks, feeling alone with many responsibilities and there were bad company decisions made that I had nothing to do.
-I began to look for another job. I didnt care if the pay was lower as long as my duties were good.
-Moved in with my girlfriend in a rented room, but at least we were together.
-My girlfriend’s job was hard, and really bad pay.
MAY – First half
-My girlfriend was fired due to the company going broke. She worked 2 months and didnt get paid. She was going to have to move back to our home town because she had no money. However with my good salary we could survive quite well.
-I thought the quitting the job thing over; I needed the job more than ever.
-We began to visualize every night the life we wanted – a good new job for my girlfriend and a comfortable new job for me. We believe in God so we used to pray with faith too.
MAY – Last half
-Girlfriend still unemployed. Many interviews though but no calls back or if calls back, miserable salary or job conditions.
-I was sent far away from my office to a new building where I had to set all the things. I used to be alone in that office all day long, sitting in one little kitchen working with devices and really bored. I had many troubles about several things and tasks that were assigned to me, but I didnt have anyone to ask because I was the only person that was in charged of my specialty stuff.
– I spend all my free time in that office looking and applying for jobs offers, for my girlfriend and I.
-My boss was more annoying than ever and was constantly asking me about the tasks and assessing me. I was feeling more than ever that he was looking for me to commit a mistake so he can kick me out and actually it wasnt really hard. I assume that the day was going to come soon because the amount of things that I didnt know how to do. I had been ignored so much by my boss and some co-workers that I decided not to ask again.
-One day my girlfriend got a call and she was requested to go to one job interview. She loved it! It was a great multinational company.
To make the story short:
-Girlfriend was hired. She was asked if she knew of anybody else, and guess what? I was hired too. They didnt have any problem with us being a couple, and also, the salary will be 30% higher than my current salary, incredible? Not at all. Amazing, I thought.
-I quit the same day my boss was going to fire me. He was kind of humiliating to me, and was trying to make me beg for the job, but I said ‘I quit’ as soon as I was able to speak. No hard feelings, I told him.
– We’ve been working here for almost a year now. The work team and bosses are great, awesome job environment, we got our own apartment, and we are gonna get married in a few months. We have gotten many things not only from the company but also from life; many “little” great things.
If somebody reads this I just want to advise you that if you are not really comfortable about your current conditions, keep looking and do not lose faith, imagine, visualize very passionately.
