Nothing

What’s a job you would like to do for just one day?

What’s the point of one day?

I guess if you hated it then a day is good, if you loved it then a day would be heartbreaking; unless you’d be allowed to stay if you liked it.

I don’t think in terms of job or career though. I rarely did. I was forced into work when I hadn’t worked out who I was or explored my skills. As such work was something that basically made me depressed and anxious for 36 years with very few exceptions. I do mean a day her and there, and a very short period at the end of my career.

When I say the end, it was my second from last job, my last role was spent in a company so unkind, with the worst boss I’ve ever had, who gave his daughter with an performing arts degree the technology role when I had a degree in computer science.

He also gave my friend a bad reference, something illegal, and undeserved, but the Hospital she went to work for just said “You don’t seriously think we take any notice of him do you?” Even so it goes to the depths of the man.

Now I run empowerment groups, but I consider that neither a job nor career, it’s what I love with who I love.

What’s not to love? Seeing people grow in confidence and become stronger. I wouldn’t want to do this for just one day either. Nor is one day sufficient to create would peace and respect in a world this fearful. Because violence is only undertaken by the fearful trying to prove they’re strong.

A strong person couldn’t give a toss what you think of them. They have nothing to prove.

If I got a job within on world peace I’d barricade myself in the office and you’d never get rid of me. I’d pelt you with dark chocolate, and threaten you with chocolate raisins. Harsh I know, but I wouldn’t want to cause pain and short of sour milk I can’t imagine a worse punishment.

Mind you, if you like dark chocolate or chocolate raisins, you’d be too busy catching them to bother about me Win/win!

Happy Monday
