WOO HOO!

Talk about opportunities. A couple of days ago Jobstreet finally came back to me about my Letter of Offer and I'll be starting this coming Monday. Another company which I've been eyeing for quite some time now called on that same day for an interview! And its this coming Tuesday. It's a general insurer company called Royal and Sun Alliance (a.k.a RSA) . I've been bumming around and getting discouraged and depressed because there had been so little good breaks. I was literally jumping around the house for that whole day.

Looks like it will be finally be starting. I'm still in a dilemma, whether to turn down Jobstreet or just start with them while waiting for RSA's acceptance. I'm thinking it wouldn't be a good thing and troublesome for Jobstreet to employ me and having me leave only maybe after a week? Any tips out there?

I wonder if much of us have given thought to the idea or situation of ''shouldering the burden''. Meaning to say if the sole breadwinner of the family passes away, will I be able to shoulder the family? (assuming that perhaps you're the elder of the lot or the most suitable for it and there's nobody else). Sometimes I come across people who are far beyond me in this matter and they have my respect. I'm 24 this year, not that old but not exactly that young either. Guess the question is, what separates the man from the boy? Something to think about.
