My Outlook on my Future

Hey, Internet! I have nothing to do at work, might as well make a blog entry. The next worst thing to having swamped with work is to have nothing on your plate to pass the time. You might ask, “Why would you not have any work to do?” Well, I guess this is just something that will only happen to a Temp.

You see, I’m hired by my company as a Temp. They require someone to work temporarily for a fixed period of time, in my case for 3 months. I was under the impression that if I performed well enough, I would be offered a full time position. That, however, seem to not be the case, if I read it correctly. Thus, I’m going to be on the lookout for my next job. Based on my qualifications and limited experience, I must say I’m pretty well paid for a Temp. But this amount is nowhere near enough for me to support my family and saving for my future.

I get that the economy is bad and recent graduates will have to make do with contract work as we carry on our chase for a golden opportunity. BUT WHY NOW? Hahaha. I would have no quims if I’m not liable to provide for my family. Liable is a strong word. I feel responsible to provide for my family. If that’s what prolonging my desire to attain my life goals, so be it. I’ve actually lowered my expectations on what I want to achieve in life. You have to my adjustments based on your current situation. And I’m okay with that, totally at ease with it. You just have to stick to and keep reminding yourself of the pros of what your life will be heading toward.

I see myself leading a bachelor’s life with my own apartment 20 years from now. And I’m okay with that.
