Darling. Why don’t u just quit now if ur over it?
Lol… I’ve never left a job when I didn’t have another one lined up, my love… I can’t think of even one instance… except for when I left the corporate job… that was a huge sprint of a career…
So… have u started looking at job ads?
No… I just made this decision this morning! I still need a portfolio to go after the type of job that I described…
I will need to set aside time for the other blog… the one I’ve barely set up, the link is on my Tik Tok but if you click on it right now there’s nothing there lol…
Oh… u wanna focus back on ur Tik Tok?
Not that seriously… just casually…
I think I’ll put more effort into these things in May… because Mum is back in May…
May is in 2 days…
And she’ll be back soon. Early May.
Omigosh! MET GALA is also in early May!
😅😭 don’t remind me… I’m feeling very reluctant about it…
Oohhh I can’t wait to see 😍
Lolololol… let’s keep talking about you. My favourite topic! 🥰
Mmmm… so…
When Mum is back… I think I’ll have more time and energy to do the blogging and possibly Tik Tok…
Mum will be cooking meals for me… Mum will help with doggy… I can even have peace of mind with work shifts, his meals will be taken care of…
Sometimes if I’m really exhausted, if I even ask her to do my laundry for me, she’s happy to do it! And she’ll vacuum and mop, and take out the bins…
Do u really miss ur mother or u just like living with a personal chef, cleaner, petsitter?
LoL!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Of course I miss her too!!!!!!!!!
Sigh… she’ll ask me about my day… maybe I’ll vent some stuff to her instead of immediately writing to u… it depends…
Oh… I’m gonna observe how u change when Mum is around… 👀
Lol…
We’re pretty chill these days. She amuses herself watching Korean dramas…
Uhuh… 😏💕
She’ll probably like the Tangerines 🍊 one. Everybody’s been talking about it, which doesn’t make me want to watch it at all.
Lol why not?!
I’m loyal to the potatoes 🥔
I finished watching the potatoes rom com. I can’t just suddenly switch over to Tangerines 🍊
It’s only one fruit or vegetable themed show a year for me!
Really?!
No… lol..
But I’m just not feeling it right now…
Okay…
So ur gonna blog more when Mum’s back…
ATTEMPT to…
That’s my mental plans at the moment…
My mental preparations for eventually exiting the current job…
I see… 👀
Maybe my timing will be… seeing u just as u get ur new job…
U think so?
If u think u’ll get it by June/July… it’s possible… 😅
Well then… u’ll have to find a way to reach me. If I’m no longer working in retail u can’t just walk thru the doors like a regular customer incognito and say hi…
I know… 😏 I’ve been brainstorming some new plans today while u were working...
Lol… 🤭💕
What kind of hours do u think u’ll get?
I don’t know… I’m genuinely hoping for, 2-3 days a week. 8 hr days. Either 9:00 am — 5:00 pm, or 8:00 am — 4:00 pm…
Regular schmegular hours…
Exactly. And if it’s purely work from home, that’s the best!
What about Head Office?
Sigh…
If it’s in Brisbane, I don’t mind…
Even if it’s hybrid in Brisbane.
Say if it’s 2 days in the office in Brisbane, one day from home. That would be fine too as long as I can also juggle my classes with that schedule. I can’t imagine a situation right now where all of that aligns but it’s easy to write about…
What if they say it’s 2 days in the Brisbane office only?
That’s fine. I’ll go in.
U will?!
Yeah… I’m assuming the hourly rate is more than what I’m doing in retail…
What if the initial training requires more days?
Then I need to pause the studies, postpone next term’s enrolment, and resign from the current job to attend the training…
Oh…
That sounds more like a customer service job tho, and I’m not really interested in that…
U mean like phone customer service?
Yeah… a lot of them is like, a huge chunk of initial training then whatever rosters… work from home, on site or hybrid…
And u don’t wanna do that?
No.
Oh… okay…
Even if it was like. Some media company that needed scripts for a Tech content channel or content creator. Like a team of them. So I’m rostered to be a researcher/writer… u get what I mean?
Hmmm…
Because then I can just show up to research and write.
I see… 👀
I think there should be more and more of these types of opportunities, and maybe a criteria “Ur not allowed to use AI in the final copy, just for initial research but the final content has to be 100% human generated and our subscribers actually PAY so ur writing is behind a paywall that’s how we can afford ur wages”
OOOHHHHHHHH…….. 🤯
Are u getting it?! Lol… 😅
Yes… I’m finally understanding what kind of job ur envisioning!!!
Lol… 😘❤️
