As you all know, I’m currently jobless. I don’t have a job, if you don’t count keeping house and taking care of kids count. I have a little sideline which I take seriously, because that sideline is the one that is responsible for putting food in our table. Sometimes, I get burned out and want to take a leave from it or even abandon all of it altogether but I always do a reality check: Do I want to leave my kids with a maid again? Would there be a better alternative? Can we afford for me to quit? All those questions make me work again, even half-heartedly. An example of which is me, blogging at 4AM because I need to work.
Out of us four siblings, our youngest, is the only who has a job. Surprise surprise! We really dont expect her to hold a 9 to 5 job because she is as eclectic (and not really a morning person) as can be. So I wasnt surprised to learn that she got a job as a fashion stylist for photoshoots for ads. A Marketing Company employed her for it and she is still free-lance so it is still good for her.
My brother quit his nth job and my other sister’s company went belly-up. I’m pretty sure they will find jobs again soon I just don’t know if they will take the break until after the holidays.
