time

So ola has being having problems with sleeping lately and I cant help
but think, one of the reason she cant sleep is because she cannot find a
suitable job that fits her schedule. The lack of jobs that work with a
university student schedule is really an issue that every working
student faces. We are limited to work such as, McDonalds, kfc, kohl's
and OSf. And with those jobs, we don't even get $7 per hour. What are we
the upcoming future, have to do to get meaningful work in this place.

When we do find a job that pays above $9, it's the most stressful job on
the psyche of a person, a call center operator. So looking at our
options Food or call center, its amazing why most people don't go crazy
from stress.

With me, there's this thing that I have that some what annoys me. I have
had three jobs last year, I worked at a manufacturing company designing
and printing the graphics on pens and those things you use to file
stuff, your fingernails I think, then I worked at kohl's stocking goods
that came out of the trucks, and now I worked fulltime for statefarm
under contract to redesign a particular system for them, but the weird
part is that now I'm working part time for statefarm doing projects.
With these three endeavors, I stayed at statefarm because 1. They
offered me enough money to be happy 2. The work I do is challenging. I
have a feeling of, "this is what I went to school for".

Ola herself had had challenges finding a job that she actually like
doing, but the weird thing is, I know what Ola wants to do, and its not
sitting in meetings, or in an office all day trying to ponder to
everyone's ego, while still maintaining a sense of dignity and
authority. She wants a job where she travels and get to try new things
and meet new ppl. I wish she could have that, but then again everyone
with a sense of adventure has that sort dream. I wish I was in Scotland,
just seeing the magnificence of the highlands. Liza wishes she could
travel around the world or stay in Africa and help ppl. But we all have
to accept reality and realize that there are people that depends on us,
and also accept the fact that opportunities like those are so limited
it's next to impossible that it will come true.

But do we give up our dreams and lose our sense of adventure? For me, I
know I cant find a job that takes me to Scotland, but I will try and pay
for it myself, maybe on vacation, that's my best bet and my alternative
work around Scottish dreams. What is your alternative workaround dream?
