The search for something more...

After all the delegated routine work done at the office everyday, thoughts came rushing through my head that working as a secretary is a dead-end job and it won’t lead me to anything. This is the kind of job that I have put up with for a long time now. It felt like I’m being stack in one corner forever. True to say that we are all seeking something better and very few of us could say that we are truly contented with every aspect of our lives.

Sometimes I go nuts having to sit keeping my chair warm for long hours doing nothing. Not to mention losing my temper for having to get up bright and early everyday doing the same thing over and over again. But other times it’s like I’m really gung ho and in good spirits working all day long. I wonder why! It doesn’t matter what my boss thinks of me. After all I’m exactly doing my job the way it’s supposed. A little appreciation would do to boost my self worth.

In all honesty, for the many years I have been working as a secretary, learning to love your job is the key. If you look at the bright side, all else will be ok. If it weren’t because of my work right now then things wouldn’t be right for me. Being out of work is something that I wouldn’t dream of. Although sometimes it stressed me out that I couldn’t sleep at night.

You may think that I’m always whining and complaining about my job, which I do. This is actually sort of like my way of liking my job. I have to write it out and be able to balance and come up with what is really good for me. So whatever I have right now I just have to be content and comfortable with it. I have to be happy with my job because our stay in the Kingdom is not really guaranteed, and believing that the happier we are, the more successful we can be.

And every time I think that working as a secretary is a dead-end job. I’m gonna have to think and make a decision not to think that way again. I will keep making that decision until it’s no longer a decision, but a way of life.
