Occupations

At that office I learned the ways of cubicle life. I wasn't exactly in a cubicle; in fact a friend of mine was working a little across from the office I was in for the day, to where our desk setup resembled that of Michael Scott and Dwight Schrute. But the lack of space was still too much for me. Sitting on a rolling chair for 8 hours, eyes glued to a screen, repeatedly doing the same tedious thing hundreds of times with limited leg room just wasn't for me. It was terrible.

But upon receiving the check in the mail today, I read that note that offered me a part-time job right back in that office once school starts up. I gave some thought to that beautiful room, with a gorgeous view of the hillsides and the driveway, of that cushioned rolling arm chair, and of the incredibly nice people who I worked with. And I now know I should be taking breaks and I probably wouldn't be activating and sending out pool keys every time I went in...

I know that I can't survive multiple 8 straight days in a office, but part time? 3 or 4 hours a day?

I know how and why other people can do the 9-5 work routine.

$10 an hour pays the bills.

Oh, and a new change of that" dream job"-
I will start a business of my own. I've never heard it mentioned before, so if there's an actual name for it, I'd love to know.
I would love to meet celebrities
divas
billionaires
successful businessmen
and expose them to world culture.
People in undeveloped countries,
organizations in need,
oppressed countries.
Expose them to Jesus,
selflessness
love
life outside of their mansions and jets.
I'd love to help those who lead our nation's media see there is something more to life on earth.
Show them that living for others can be so much more rewarding and humbling.
And maybe the humbleness could help in spreading throughout the country.

Just a thought.

Entrepreneurship.

I hope I spelled that correctly.
