So today has been the first day in a long time I've had a boost of motivation despite the "hardships" I've been facing in the job search. Yes, since graduation I have been chasing various positions based on semi-scientific guesses as to what career would best suit me. The problem in Sacramento is, there just isn't anything to satiate the misguided. I am misguided, and soul-searching. It seemed like college was leading up to something of epic proportions, but alas, was a slap in the direction of the bleak outlook of the rest of my existence. I would now enter a world of bills, insurance, and creating a pile of numbers to add to my dwindling bank account. But I digress, for some reason today, I had an epiphany that almost all types of jobs offer rewards to their participants. I understood that most people respect a hard worker, no matter from any walk of life. This in itself is motivating, simply because no matter what I choose to do, if I become good at it will be fulfilling by nature.
Thus, I took action:
I decided that I need to have some kind of income to supplement my current position. I don't know if it was the Red Bull I had at about 1 o'clock or if it was one of those random days where you wake up and think you can tackle anything. And we have all had those days.
Today I walked in to a Nameless Company with my newly found fervor, and asked for an employment application. I was told to access the companies website for an online print-out to which I queried, "I did not see any applications on the website". The manager helping me winced at the computer screen for a moment, then spouted, "Yep, don't feel like your stupid, cause it's not on there." He then proceeded to tell me that they weren't actually hiring, and that I should come back next week. Hmmmm, not hiring yet come back I thought, this is trickery.
So hopefully this is a precursor to a newly found motivation that I have not had before. Or, perhaps I'm impatient and hoping to find things too quickly based on my current fleeting living situation.
