Artist: Stone Temple Pilots Song: Vasoline [Embed For Use By Upgraded+] Prompt via "30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS" : What do you value most in a job/career? What about a job makes it satisfying and fulfilling? If you currently hold your “dream job,” what makes it perfect for you? If you are still seeking your dream job, how will you know when you’ve found it? If you are retired, think back to how you felt when you were working Ha, the timing of these prompts sometimes... Currently dealing with some work stress. But, ah, let's see what I can actually talk about in relation to this prompt. What do you value most in a job/career? Is it bad that I don't really know yet? I think once I get into my actual career, I'll know what's actually important to me. Right now I have a general idea of things I think I want in a career. Room for growth/upward movement and continuous learning Mutual trust and respect with an employer Flexibility in schedule, work location, and dress code Stability, good benefits, and good pay A financially and culturally healthy company (which enables all of the above) Ideally, a company should want their employees to be empowered. They should want them to become further educated, to have diverse work experiences across a multitude of disciplines, and to have access to any and all tools/resources that enable their empowerment and well-being. I won't stick with a company for long if they don't display that kind of culture. If you currently hold your “dream job,” what makes it perfect for you? NOPE. If you are still seeking your dream job, how will you know when you’ve found it? This is a good question. I think it's probably one of those 'when you know, you know' things, but I have no experience to back up that claim. I guess one thing I always thought is that when a job doesn't always feel like a job. I think any job is going to feel like a job occasionally, but if you go to sleep every night dreading waking up the following morning because you have to go to work, it's probably not your dream job. If I find a place where I'm comfortable and confident with the value I add to the team, I get along with management and my co-workers, and I don't mind spending time doing the work... that's probably a dream job. If you are retired, think back to how you felt when you were working. Oh, scratch all of the above, I just wanna be retired.
