It's hard being a Jack of all trades...

[a-sheen]

I read through all the replies to get ideas on how I should deal with my own concerns but I only grew more panicky after I realized the situation I am in.

Being a NEET doesn't sound bad anymore now that i think about it...

[baka1412]

I'm gonna have a medical check-up on Monday..

If i passed, I'd be contracted for 1 year as Training Support position..  But I'm still not sure if I'm up to it..

1 year is a long time.. And they will be keeping my original diploma certification for safekeeping..

I'm sure you'll do great And a year passes in no time, as my IY forum record can attest X(

Life sucks. I'm stuck in a similar limbo. I'm taking a gap year out before Uni, and i'm only spending half of it abroad, so I was hoping to work until then, but... no jobs, and such as there are go nowhere.

Not even part times? |:

Not even that. It's the bloody recession. Nobody's taking on workers that they don't absolutely need.

If you can't find a job then how about gaining some work experience instead, ofc that means working for free.

I don't really know.. I haven't got any mood for working lately..

Maybe I'm the kind of a guy whose very enthusiastic on finding a job, then the mood just disappear when I actually GET the job...

But you still have to do it anyway.

At least you have a job -- for now. That's better than nothing

It's not that bad, look at Satou-kun!  He gets a nice pretty girl to do everything for him!

But in all seriousness, I hope you pass your medical and get that job you want!  The only way your heading is up now, my friend.

It's not really the kind of job i wanted, frankly...

I just applied there because they're pretty much a large and bona fide company..

Being a jack-of-all-trades is not that bad, I think.

Oddjobs, freelance, arubaito (arbeit) in Japan, those sorts of things... the uncertainty is actually the thrill of it. Not having a stable job is somewhat an adventure in itself, but it's one of those things that one should take knowing the risk of having no job at all. Risk w/freelance or a stable, but stale and repetitive job... up to you. I'd prefer the latter though, I just feel that I got no balls for freelance... or maybe just half

Lots-o'-luck to you, mate


As for Jack-of-all-Trades, there's a guy worse than you.
At least be happy about that ;-P

A friend of mine said something like this :


Work isn't about FUN, It's about how much CRAP can you take from your boss

[Akonyl]

well that's certainly a pessimistic view on things.

The other day at work we had people shooting nerf guns at each other. :V

[ranger]

You can't enjoy fun without suffering, unless we'll start believing that fun is pain, and that suffering is bliss.

"If you want to know why having a job sucks, take into account they are paying you for you to do it"

I just remembered this sentence. I'm not trying to depress you btw xD

[soratothamax]

Shoot, I'm the same. I'm in my last semester of college. And when I graduate, I don't even know where to begin...I have other side jobs to work, but none in my major. Sucks for me.
