In the process of writing a new covering letter and updating my CV all over again, suddenly I was struck by the weariness of it all. Initially it was interesting to keep count of how many jobs I had applied to....it kept on growing 1,2,3,.....6,7,... At last count it was around 15 to 16. And I don't even remember when it was! Now I have lost count and have wearied of it all, probably its around 20- 25.
That's the advantage when you have a government job, don't have to search for a new one every few months or years. But won't it get boring after a few years? Monotony will set in but you can't afford to lose the job for the sake of your family.
Earlier I had read, one should enjoy the job, love your job, do what you love so that it is not 'work'. But finally when I found a job that I love, suddenly I find that I enjoy the holidays, I savour the double weekends. So I guess a job is a job after all, not something you want to do in your chill out time. May be even music composers who love to make music might be doing something else in their chill out time!!
