My problem is I always can't do what I want to do

I read the job ads and find two jobs that interested me. One of them required graduate training and the other is an entry level of job that have little requirement on education. I am afraid I can’t manage both of them. After some considerations, I think i better keep doing the current job which is easy and dont expect much on me.

I have the qualifications but i can’t do a job making use of them. I feel frustrated.

I think it happens to me too. I can work technically, but only for a short length, or else I will not be able to cope with my mood swing.

So you decided to keep your current job? That’s good also. Good luck @goggles

@Minnii i definitely want to keep the present job. It is low stress. I think i can’t make myself to do more.

Yeah, well at least you’re not sinking into depression at home. That’s always a good thing. Keeps your mind busy with something, and if it is low stress even better.

I don’t know how long i can keep the job. It’s a temp. It’s not busy. I’m often idled.

Actually, it would be much better if i can work full time. I have really low income now. Can barely paid for food. I used to earn a lot I never have a problem with money prior to sz. It’s difficult to live.

Oh in that case, when the contract is almost over you’ll need to find something else?

It doesn’t work that way. I’m not a contract staff. I will receive a short notice , like 7 days, if they want to terminate mr. They can dismiss me at any time.

I try to think if i can get a more stable job. A lot of the eady jobs require shift duty and night shift. I’m afraid they are not good to my mental health.

Oh I see. That doesn’t sound very stable. What about the other job, is it more stable?

Well, i am thinking about working as a health care worker. They are usually contract posts in hostel. At least they need someone to work for them and fundings are more stable.

I have applied for a position in the government. It’s a permanent position. But I’m afraid i
I’d meet keen competition the chance is very low.

Oh okay. Yeah a government position would be good. They can’t fire you there right?

Actually, most of the gov post are temp/contract. Only a few jobs lead to perm. I think most likely i would fail.

Yeah, stick with your current job, and keep looking for something good.
