Due to funding my job as well as a few others was cut. So I was left looking for work. I was either A: over Quilified, B: Did not speak Spanish or C: under trained for the jobs here. I did not want to be a city cop, or work for the border patrol, two options I had here.
I have also been a truck driver, for Swift, and a local outfit All Star Trucking. I have also worked construction and sheetmetal. I have also worked while in Boise ID for Micron, mainly in the HTML department.I have owned 2 business, one a game store called Gamers Guild, and another known as 1337 cafe, a internet cafe, geared towards internet gaming and compitition. The city wont support such endevours, many after me have opened and closed within a year... I lasted 3 as a game store and 2 as a Internet cafe.
I am a jack of all trades, I have an exceptional IQ, learn quick but get bored easy. Jobs like Security or Police work, offer new challenges each day.. and it fits my personality. |
Yes, doing the same thing everyday is not for everyone. My oldest son...gets bored fast with a job. He has learned to stay in the same field but he moves to a new company once or twice a year. He is highly skilled in what he does...doesn't take any garbage from employers. Just says...see yeah! He has never been out of work for more than a week. Sometimes it is hard being smart.:)
It is really important to work in a field that suits you. We spend so many hours of our day, at work. I have a friend that has been a Yogurt shop owner, a manager at a tune up shop, a car salesman, a realtor. He is really smart, but has itchy feet:) He has owned several homes and does well by his family.
A jack of all trades means you will never be out of work. I too have had several careers:)
