If nothing else, a job you don't like will motivate you to find a better one, and allow you to enjoy your spare time more. I've had plenty of them, some worse than others :p |
I don't really think I can get anything much higher up than what I have right now. It doesn't seem like I could deal with the demands of a more "professional" environment. All the social aspects, the "making of good impressions," being expected to blather on about career goals in interviews, and so on. Time will tell, though.

Wait, what time do you go to work? It's 4 AM in Brazil and it must be even earlier there! |
It's 3:24 AM here at the moment. I will leave for work around 3:45. |

You're just one hour behind me? That's odd, I thought you were somewhere in the Midwest.

That's it, Brian!
I'm going to help you! You can achieve your dreams, and I'm going to show you by going after mine! I'm going to teach you how not to waste your life away posting on message boards no matter how much you love the people around here! Go out there and make an impression, and deal with real people! In the real world! I'm going to write the url of my blogs in my profile, you know where to reach me. Be sure to subscribe to their syndications, Brian, and I hope I can motivate you!
Adeus, everyone!
Perhaps I'll be back after I pull this all-nighter. God, why isn't syntax just a tad bit simpler!? :mad: |

I don't believe that for a second.
Try harder. Look harder, for work that will make use of your skills. You're intelligent, thoughtful, and extremely eloquent in your writing. And, you're a university graduate. Start there. |

They don't make university graduate jobs for people who can't deal with people. :p
Well, unless you have a technical degree, in which you can be some sort of boffin in a backroom. But I have a useless philosophy degree. |

That's just it: I don't have any dreams to achieve.
But good luck going after yours. |

Nothing wrong with being shy. It just takes some practice to get over :)
How many days a week do you work? |
|
|
| MrJiveBoJingles |
| Four, usually. |

Okay, off to throw around some boxes and stock some shelves.
Maybe I will get back on here after work. Or maybe I will leave for another couple weeks. does it matter, right? |

This will sound stupid, but go and get a couple of part-time shifts a week working in a bar. Any bar, it doesn't matter, really. You'll be forced to deal with [all kinds of] people non-stop, and with your customers drinking, you'll find yourself in positions that are quite unexpected. <-- This part is a really good thing.
It's not something you would do for the money (though, in the US I've heard a bar tender can make some pretty good money with tips and ). Instead, since you're uncomfortable or shy around people, do it for the growth/experience. |
