I have been searching through endless internet directories to see what kind of possible good career could be out there. Once you field through endless spam jobs that include working from home and making 300.00 a week by just being yourself, you find very little in the way of actual career fulfillment. Though there are a few gems hidden here and there and I did find some things to get excited about. First there is a really high profile internship job for Verizon Communications event planning. I could get paid to throw some great networking and launch parties in major cities as a way of promoting a brand. That would be perfect, but I imagine the “coveted” internship spot will be attacked by any college graduate within a hundred mile radius. There is also Manager of show promotion and mixed media lab being brought up by the Mystery Theater in the downtown. That would be a perfect job to get into the door with and maybe even have a chance to grow. It’s the kind of job that can go from one thing to the next each week and mixed media is something I would love to do. Everything else especially when you look in the marketing field can get rather jumbled from “Sales Call” listings which is not really the essence of marketing to rather dumb marketing tricks like holding a sign up in front of cash express for six hours a day. I feel like you have to have talent just to get through job listings to make sure you are applying to things that could possibly help out your future. It all feels rather pointless to an extent…you are really good at something and now you have to wait for others to see that you are good at it. I wish I could just post some of my ideas and maybe something would come from that, but where is the competition in that? Life is about surviving and surviving is partially about luck and those who thrive are the ones that see opportunity where no one else could imagine it, but am I that person?
