I am very jobless right now. I actually have a fair amount of people who are "connected" and have offered to put in a good word for me in various locations from the Intercontinental Hotel to fancy restaurants. The thing is, as nice as the idea of making more money is, I don't see myself at those kinds of places much longer. I have changed a lot in the past few years, well the past year particularly, and I love the idea of doing something for people on a more personal level. Simpler things like working at a cafe, baby sitting, working with kids, helping people who actually need help. I want to do something to legitimately spread love and make some people's lives easier. More and more I see that as success and happiness.
So what am I doing? I applied to establishments that I respect and would genuinely love to work at, like Native Foods Cafe or Sweet Cakes Bakery. In the mean time I need to pay next month's rent, so baby sitting is calling me. I just applied today to 3 positions, and hopefully something wonderful will come out of that. I think it will. I've learned persistence doesn't always pay off, but sometimes it does!
Give a smile today to a stranger.
