We are considering it, for the side businesses anyways(manager and auditor if the auditor includes understanding the disaster that is the US tax code).

Looking for a way to America?

@TheGleaner

Uhhh the dreaded tax audit.... How complex is it? I'm trying to widen my responsibilities and widen my choices, since my employer is having a hard time managing their company and employee, it's hard to progress there...

so if faith leads me to America, why not really.

What's more if I do pass your interview I have to work on my visa for USA and Quit my job.

Oh if you have plans branching off Philippines is cheap to station in. 

Btw this isn't part of the interview already is it?

If I remembered I think have around about 5 jobs in total. My very first job back at high school was working at a office job for a car seller company. Been stuck there for 3 years of high school. All I did was entering numbers in and paper filings. Office job is such a bored. Then at my senior year I worked as a mailman for a university while doing some small office work in between.  Then adulthood hits and I used to worked in Sprout at the Deli (the most hellish job for me). Around 2018 I got my CNA license and worked at two jobs as a CNA and as a salesman for Costco. 2020 I  stopped working as a CNA due to the COVID-19 because I don't want to risk working there due to a large family. 2021, I  move on working as a florist while still keeping my salesman's job. I quit the florist job and here am I  still stuck as a salesman, promoting whatever shit Costco wants me to promote for their store. 

Honestly, I do missed working as a CNA because it's nice to help people in needs rather than being suck here promoting for capitalisms to flourish-but I do need the money and unfortunately my current job pays me better. Ironically, when I was working as CNA, I worked around doctors and nurses who only here for money and less for the patients and I hated it.  I remembered seeing how most of  the nurse treated their patients poorly due to that mindset. Only see patients as cash cow. I asked one nurse why she choose to be a nurse practitioner. She said because it pays her better than being a nurse- needed the money- "Oh I see". Most of the answer I asked for other co-workers and nurse students are all the same....I thought to myself back then that there's no way I want to work around with these kind of people!... but here I am now...grinding for money. 

 

As everyone already knows this, What I learned throughout all my work experiences

Can I retire already?

Welcome to the real world.

I see that part of you have died... Now it's really up to you if it made you stronger or weaker...

hm no one ever ask me that- I had grown tired and dreaded everyday with no motivations, but I did have a little of a "wake-up" call. Since I have been working (of course I did some schoolings too) since the start of High school till now, I never give a chance to think of other things in life beside working.  Time passed so fast that I often forget the most important things around me and so now I'm trying to keep that mindset often and tried to not take things for granted despite of how dreadful my life is sometime.

I do data entry. I started the job not too long ago. It's honestly paradise compared to my experience working before. It's a daytime job, it's Monday through Friday, and it's a sitting job. I've never had a "normal" job like that. I've always worked retail... I always worked nights or the 4am shift. Weekends for me were never Saturday and Sunday, they were in the week. It being a sitting job is essential for me because of my chronic pain. At this job, I don't have to hurt to do my job, and it's amazing!!! =DDD

I make money sitting at a computer all day. lol. I also get to listen to my music. =D (and I don't have to listen to other people's music, because you're ONLY allowed to listen to music through headphones/earbuds and there is no crappy music blasting over the overhead speaker either. As I said, PARADISE.)

Until yesterday, I worked in a warehouse for working clothes in my region (mostly for rescue teams and retail). I did there usually warehouse activities like transporting of bags filled with clothings or roll containers with the electric pallet jack.

Before this, I also worked in other warehouses (like Birkenstock for example) or in other companies in the production. I also worked on construction areas and I have an education as a gardener.

I currently work at Disneyland and have been here since spring of 2014. I work in an office backstage and support a certain department of the cast. Until a couple years ago I had a different job in the same department that was much more fun and interesting, but there were mandatory age limits on it and I had to move into a supporting role instead. Before that, I had many jobs including:

Artist; doing simple architectural renderings for an awning company.

Film developer; processing class photos for schools.

Cave Guide; giving guided tours of a cave system in the Midwest, as well as a lot of other peripheral tasks on the surface.

Fast food; taking orders at Taco Bell.

The Disney Store; sales hostess at the Fashion Show mall in Las Vegas.

Floor cleaner; polishing the floors at a Days Inn in Anaheim every two weeks.
