  • ...picky picky...

    at this point in time, I'm being way toooo picky.  I'm looking for jobs in companies and organizations I want to work in.  I want to go into an organization and feel as if I can actual have some loyalty to the company.  I don't want a job for a job's sake.  Don't most employers want that?  Of course, how do you put that into a resume?  nah, more like the cover letter...but if you put those into words, don't i sound a tad desperate?

    This means I'm essentially doing a blind application, I have to spiff up my resume just that much more....time to reinvent myself through the power of technology....though of course, my words of choice do make me stand out of a page.....

    So far, I know that I can do sales positions....Hence why If i get truly desparate after a year without employment, I WILL go into retail even for the time being....that is my LAST resort.  There are telemarketing sales which pay better than store retail positions...but see the note underneath.  Of course though, I'd willingly apply for manager-in-training positions at any retail location (preferably NOT clothes though).  My retail of choice is shoes and books...heh.  I'm silly I know.

    I know I will NOT do a telemarketer position.  i WILL not in any way do this.  If my job requires phone interaction fine, but I don't want interaction between people through the phone to be the primary job description.  of course....that's cause i haven't seen pay high enough to motivate me to apply to such positions.  

    Ideally, I'd really like to work in some employment center with immigrants or something! Or just working with immigrants to adjust to a new country would be my ideal job.  Unfortunately, the immigration sector of Ontario COMPLETELY slashed the budgets so alot of previously existing jobs in this field have virtually disappeared.  sigh.....

     Ironically, I'm finding jobs through the immigration job websites that still have funding.  maybe someday i'll get that job! ROAR!!!!!
