leaving work

February 27, 2010

Our professor asked our classmate, “are you working?” He said, “yes.” “Do you wanna be a lawyer?” He said another yes. “Then you better resign.”

The words resonated again and again in my head. I already knew that work is never an excuse for failing grades or poor recitations. Rather, the professors would never excuse you for that alone. You better know your priority, that’s what they’re probably trying to say.

There were numerous times my heart beats were racing fast (registering to the maximum in an oximeter) because I wasn’t prepared for class. As the professor said those words, I really felt the urge to leave my current work. This isn’t really because of school, but mostly because work has been such a drag. But of couse, it isn’t as easy as A, B, and C.

This isn’t really about priority between work and school. It’s actually about priorities and choices in work in general.. The question that remains is: How would you know if it’s already time to leave your work? Is it the number of years? Is it the number of friends? Is it the location? Is it the boss? Is it the place? Is it the satisfaction? Is it the pay? I know someone who left after intrinsically connected reasons; still, others left just because of the environment alone.

If the question is one of necessity, there wouldn’t be a question at all. But if one has a choice, what would be the consideration?

the main consideration would be whether you like your seatmate…

kung si kg ang katabi mo, you better not leave your work. napakadami mong matutunan sa kanya e. di ba kg?

if out of necessity, and i am sure you’ll be able to see it that way if it is indeed THAT, then tama ka, no question at all. as for the rest of the possible scenarios, kelangang pag-isipang mabuti yan. at andito kami para tulngan kang mag-weigh ng mga bagay-bagay. :-)

Try not to leave work as much as possible, even if you can adequately provide for yourself. It adds to the challenge eh. Haha. Seriously, I hope you’ll be able to decide accordingly when the dilemma strikes.
