Did you ever sit back and think about where you are now as opposed to where you thought you’d be? I honestly don’t remember what I said when I was asked, “Where do you see yourself in ten years?” However, I can definitely say for certain that I didn’t expect to be 28, a full time college student and looking for a part time job.
While I understand that I’m in college and a part time job is to be expected and about all I could handle. But, after ten years of a career, looking at Chic-Fil-A and wondering if they’re hiring is about as degrading as it comes.
I once had a plan to be living either on a boat on San Francisco Bay or living in a country that speaks English, because I’m too lazy to learn a foreign language and I have would have the cool accent that girls like. “Ooo, you’re American! Wanna go home with me?” I’m sure it doesn’t usually work that way, but when your 18 it does.
Don’t get me wrong, my life has been pretty good, but I just hope this is all worth it in the end. So far I’m just left questioning my sanity.
