I am so-oo looking forward to a 'normal' working life. The thing is, I am extremely happy with my content writing career and would love to do nothing else for the rest of my life. But the problem is, I just can't work solitary. After more than two-and-a-half years of working from home, I have realized that I need to get out of the house. I need to have people around me and I need to talk to them. I just can't spend the rest of my working life (and I am only in my 20's) in my pajamas, sitting with my laptop open on the bed. I just can't. I need to feel the pressures of a hectic office culture and I want to dress up every day in the morning and go to work. I need to feel the thrill of being appreciated by my boss and colleagues and yearly bonuses and increments. I really do! And so, I have started looking for a normal 9 to 5 job! Got the DH too on the project and he has agreed to look out for job openings. Let's see how it all works out. :D
oh wow! good to read your post. Guess what, I'm in my 30's and got so bored of the daily grind and the industry I was working for, that I am now going to go back to school with people a decade younger to me. It's always best to be aware of what exactly are your needs in life.
ReplyDeleteAll the best for your new career! :)
Oh my god! We're kind of a in a similar boat. I work from home (only part time though) right now, and am dying to spend some time in an actual office, meeting actual people everyday. i don't know why people don't get that! :) Good luck!
