I don’t think I ever truly understood this saying/excuse/line before. Until now.
It’s true. And it’s awesome.
I know I’ve said it before, but my job is amazing – and no, I’m not just writing this because some of my coworkers read my blog. I’m writing this because, every day, no matter how stressed out or overwhelmed the “real world” may be, I feel like the luckiest damn girl in the world.
I’ve always had a great work ethic. Even when I worked in various restaurants and bars throughout high school and college, I was always the one going above and beyond. I’ve always believed that you only get places if you work for them. Nothing is going to fall into your lap.
But, I have never had as much motivation to work hard as I do now. I am constantly given more and more responsibility at work. Many people might run scared from that – at the slightest sight of adversity. But me? I like a challenge. And while, at times, this week I wanted to throw my laptop off the 14th floor of my office building, I truly and whole-heartedly love being so busy. Of course, it helps a little bit that I couldn’t have found a dreamier dream job. This job and I, just fit.
I’m dipping my toes in so many puddles and learning more and more each day. I am in a constant state of learning. I love it.
Who knew, at 22, that I would be exactly where I want to be?
Where’s the “like” button?
I’ve heard about your job and you are right, it is a dream job! That is so cool that you landed it! Congrats on that. 🙂
13th floor, technically 😉
Awesome.
Doing what you love and getting paid for it is probably one of the best feelings ever. I am so happy for you! And SO proud of you, you’re amazing…I can’t wait to see you blow up, cuz you know we’ll still be friends, duh.
Goodness, you are so lucky to have the job of your dreams. Do you realize that almost everyone in this world dreams of landing their ‘dream job?’ We’re happy for your achievement! 🙂
Keep it up and put your nose to the grindstone on what you have been enjoying doing. You are really into your career, I bet! Envying…
