Skillz

I have "mad skillz". I type at least 70wpm. I have extensive knowledge in most computer programs. I was trained in Microsoft Word, Excel, Access, and PowerPoint. Since the invention of the computer, (just kidding), since 7th grade, I've been interested in computers and technology. So, why don't I have a job in computers you ask? Beats the heck out of me!

I am intelligent, have a winning personality, and a very quick learner, but I am indecisive and sort of lazy. Alright, a lot lazy. I admit it. NOT a trait I'm proud of and one that I struggle to overcome, but if it comes to doing labor, I'd rather sit down and pull out a blog post like this one.

I love going to school though. I love getting good grades; I guess that means I love gratification. I need a job that gives me praise. I need one where my accomplishments are acknowledged. I'm greedy like that, and I guess pretty needy. I want someone to pat me on the back and say good job, or hand me back a graded paper with A+ on it. I can't find that type of feedback in the workforce. I also get really bored. I need to do things that are NOT monotonous. Change it up a bit. Don't give me a job where I'm doing repetitive stuff because then I feel like a robot. That's why I love daycare, photography, and computers. NOTHING is ever the same. It's challenging. I thrive on stress. I get off on challenges. Find me a job that's challenging and I will excel.

Hmmm...now only to find that job.


(PS Cashiering at Circle K is monotonous).
