job hopping...

 
mmm.. right now, i can consider myself as a job hopper which literally meant changing job very often. actually, i have only changed my job once but i'm considering to do it once again. the first time, i quit my job because it was only a 6 months contract. the chances for the contract to be extended is quite low because they are currently recruiting permanent workers. i mentioned that i was working at the immigration right?! well, they are recruiting quite a number of immigration officer. i went for the interview and only managed to be a standby candidate for 1 year. others include air traffic controller and 'pegawai perusahaan.'
 
so, this evening i got called for a job interview. actually my friend recommended me there. but, i'm praying very hard that i'll get this job. the reasons are as stated below:
  • the salary is much better than my current job
  • the job is more to my liking and more related to my field (telecommunication)
  • i can work with my friend (my closed friend)
  • i don't really like my current job ~ quite lame, eh?!
  • i can gain another new experience as a technical support staff
  • did i mentioned the salary is better?!!! hehehe...
well, maybe some people find that job hopping is a negative thing to do. it shows no commitment, loyalty, seriousness and things like that. at a certain point, it may be true but if we look at the other side, we may find that job hopping has its own advantages such as:
  •  gaining more experiences in various fields
  •  broaden your networking and social circle
  •  better salary
  •  impressive resume if you stayed at a company for a certain acceptable period
for me, it depends on the situation. if you keep changing your job with lame excuses such as the pantry is unacceptable or the boss is not handesome enough, than it's totally wrong. but if you have a real concrete reason, it's okay. the reason will be absolutely different for every people. ae our job, wouldn't effect your career, just do what you think is the best and right for you. personally, i think to perfom well at whatever we are doing, we have to love it. if we love our job, we will do our best and give full commitment to get the greatest result. but, if we didn't really like our job, we wouldn't have the motivation or drive to do it.
 
well, that's all for now! oops, forgot to mention, i am in the middle of my final exam. wish me luck, kay! and, i watched 2 movies recently, evolusi kl drift and 27 dresses. wargh, i love 27 dresses. really love it! sooooooo sweeeeeeet.... when will that happened i my life?! hehehe, keep on dreaming girl! perhaps one day, your dream will come true! only God knows... "To dream anything that you want to dream. That's the beauty of the human mind. To do anything that you want to do. That is the strength of the human will. To trust yourself to test your limits. That is the courage to succeed. - Bernard Edmonds"
