Hello everyone,
I am 25 years old, born and raised in Romania, by my father, which when growing up, he made seem that if you study hard and work hard, suddenly everything you wish for shall come true.
So, I studied hard, I worked hard, and even though by profession I am a translator, my job is of an accountant because, by working for others as a translator you earn an income lower than the lowest paycheck.
My dream has allways been to work as a translator, not only to have a degree as one. But in order to do so, I should quit my job in the corporation, the job that pays for my food and for the bank loan that I made, so it is not a real possibility.
I would like to tell you what is happening in corporations in eastern Europe. Here, the life quality is lower than you could imagine, people with an average paycheck, in theyir 30s will have a tooth missing, because dentists are so expensive.
But, let me tell you my end goal... my end goal is to live a happy life. A life in which you love what you do. Young students, fresh out of college, are hired in a corporations, where they are taught to do one thing, for the entire day, click, click, clik - and if they clicked enough, maybe, in 10 years they will receive a promotion. I am one of those people, and I feel I am dying.If I ever get out of this I will try and save others of this dangerous path that corporations represent.
The plan is to raise enough money as to be able to live and pay my taxes for a year, year in which I will take my chances as an antrepenour.
Please tell me a little bit about your experience on the job market ... I would love to read some beautiful storyes.
