Working Under COVID 19 

When the official announcement came out that the pandemic is here and that we all needed to work together to understand that life is going to change. That there's going to be a new norm, an outburst of panics around the world and those who were fortunate enough to keep their job & lifestyle had to be the superheroes. 

I felt that I need to be that superhuman to help this person because she/he lost their job, to understand why we have to go through these protocols, and to feel more empathetic to anyone that walks through that door because I am here. I am here to guide you and to try my best to assist in your life whether it was a small request or an unimaginable demand. 

To the ones who will come out as heroes, I praise you.

The Demand 
Working in an essential job was already stressful enough. You're already working past the 9 to 5, but to hell with it, you needed to work that overtime because it would just make you go insane when you leave the workplace not getting that task done. But now, the phones are ringing, times running short and the clients are knocking on the door like it's a line up for a concert outside. Do you feel the pressure? The demand of the environment escalated to the max and you're already ticking before you clocked in.

People Forget it's still COVID
You probably heard this sentence multiple times, "When are you going back to normal," "Why are you still doing this, the other companies aren't doing it," or "This is a fucking stupid process." No one likes a dramatic change because it's not in people's comfort zones, but for the love of God, people are not making it easy for you to adjust. You're ready to accept it, but people are in denial. They forget the reason that you need to protect them and that you're protecting yourselves. 

Waiting
At first, anywhere you looked there's always a lineup. To even get your groceries it probably took you more than an hour to grab the food you needed, but you get it. You get it because you understand. Then maybe you hear someone else yelling at a worker because of the wait time and it boils you up inside and you want to scream because it's not their fault. The patience for many people in this world has decreased and the amount of stupidity has increased. You can't even watch an ad for 5 seconds nowadays.

And I get it. I know there are so many people out there who have been feeling the same way, but it's okay. You're not alone.

Open your mind to new skills

Open your mind to new skills        It's 2020 and it's been a disaster across the world. It's the year where the world in our generation falls apart from left to right since the beginning of January. Do you even remember one of the first and biggest incident? Well from what I read in the beginning, it was the Australian Bush Fire. However, I'm not here to talk about the world crisis we're having, I'm here to give you reasons why you should be learning a new skill during your stay at home job, unemployment, or your boredom.      As history repeats its self when the world is at one of its lowest moments, a selection of entrepreneurs came out of the hell hole and into the new world. They seized the opportunity to live a better mindset because at that point you feel like you have nothing to lose. Financially stable or not, I really believe that you need to find a drive, you need to find something that grinds your gears into working for what you love to do. Dreams do

  i choose my mental health over a 9 to 5 job during covid-19 Just the title sounds so selfish but yes, I did terminate my existence from a corporate company where I wasn’t feeling at my best every day. Every answer I had to give out was always a different one. There was no transfer, no other company backing me up, but myself just trying to save my sanity and my soul. These are the many reasons why I chose myself today My initial goal was completed Goal setting is the key to everything, it gets you to focus on what you want and work your way to the things you need to do to get there. Having no goal makes you a bit scattered and might even find yourself lost. Working for a money machine corporation was such an unexpected turn in my life, I didn’t realize I would even consider it. Do you even know what my initial goal was to myself? I wanted to have my own office. It sounds so stupid and silly, but hey, you can’t judge something that I’ve done pretty well for a small goal. My first ste

What it feels like after quitting my job  - Full Article  It felt like the biggest sigh of relief that I was out of there. My mind was going crazy to even stay there for my last two weeks. I didn't even bother looking at my emails on my last day, but I made it through. I left after working for a company for four years. That took a lot of my years away from the more creative side of myself and into this independent person working a 9 to 5 job. I devoted my life to a working woman who just wanted to work for the rest of my life. It was almost as if I was going to die into that company.
