-- Posted by Firefly00 at 5:47 am on Sep. 23, 2008 I've been looking for a full time job since I left college in June. I have a part time cleaning job that brings in some money but that's all. A month or so ago I had a job interview for the role of a support worker, which means working with disabled people. I got the job, yet turned it down because I felt it just wasn't for me. I've wanted to work in social care for a couple of years now but recently I've realised something... It's more so my Mum's dream then mine. I, honestly, want to be a games journalist. I've decided I'm not in a rush to land a career, after all I'm only 18. So I applied for a job over the Christmas period at Gamestation. Today I get a call and I have an interview on Saturday for it. I'm really pleased but I think people expect more of me. In comparison to being a support worker, I guess it's nothing. But it's something I'd like to do. Not sure where I'm going with this topic. I just wanted to see if other people realise that they have been carrying out their parents dreams instead of their own? -- Posted by LEONIDOS at 5:50 am on Sep. 23, 2008 good luck -- Posted by Micus at 6:04 am on Sep. 23, 2008 Like your screenname... if you don't like it, don't do it! You should really follow what makes you happy; take what others expect of you with a grain of salt. -- Posted by slimsean3 at 6:21 am on Sep. 23, 2008 lol that's so weird, I've just applied for a job at Gamestation too. I passed the first interview, got my second interview on Thursday. If it's a Christmas temp job, they will no doubt put you into a Roleplay sales situation. Good luck =) -- Posted by HuffleHaire at 6:38 am on Sep. 23, 2008 I'm going to med school for my father's dream, yeah. But it's mostly because I don't have a career directed dream of my own. I don't mind. -- Posted by DavaBass at 9:11 pm on Oct. 27, 2008 You just need to do what you want to do, screw what anyone else expects of you
