im going to be an angel undercover!
a conversation about angels was brought once upon a choir practice. Tita Lourdes, my aunt's doctor, enlightened the group that in times of crisis, our angels do help us. they can be that stranger who offered a helping hand when you had a flat tire (as another choir member related this scenario...and from which Tita Lourdes then concluded that that was her angel in disguise). or that filipino guy who helped me in my luggages when i was having too much difficulty pulling them out from that baggage claim thing. or maybe on those times when we are alone in a crowd of stranger, then one or two person would somehow make that awkward situation light and easy... or when we sigh upon seeing certain scenarios who wronged a certain negative conclusion we've made that day... they could be anyone and anything. our angel could be in any form of positive force, and they will always be in us. ergo, we are all angels if we want to.
and im going to be like that... that persona of angels or that positive force! hehehe may the force be with you. lol. seriously, since i don't have a job right now, why not make this my job. and these past few days as i started my job haunt, had been nothing but negative vibes. i have been feeling so low. felt so useless. and i was so.... so... basta! i don't have the words for it. how would you feel if your looking for a job then received a reply the next day only to find out that its a hoax. a could-be swindle. the first time would be okay... but the second time... third time... would really make you so angry. so so... so you know. heheh! then behold, i received another email, saying that they would want me as a financial advisor. hmmm... sounds good! for a while, i imagined msyelf imitating the fabulous Rebecca Bloomwood. lol! but i was so scared to call them back. i think being a newbie in this country, i would probably have a hard time as a financial advisor... its so hard to discuss your clear intentions the american way of saying them. i don't think i would know their wants basing from the way they talk, gestures, eye movements...etc... im still weighing the pros and cons, though. then, while i was doing that... this morning, another could-be-job called! and well... what a major disaster. the conversation went like this:
me: hello? *surprised when my aunt told me who it was*
QuickenLoans: hello! this is ____ from Quicken Loans, is this jo?
me: yes. this is jo.
QL: hi jo! i was able to looked through your resume from careerbuilder.com, is this the right time to talk?
me: sure. yeah. *panic mode*
QL: what are you looking for in a job?
me: mostly administrative jobs, or data entries...
QL: what exactly, coz we have a lot blah blah (i did not know exactly what she was saying... then i thought that maybe she was asking for specifics. boot-boot dayon ko.)
me: well, accounting jobs. stuff like that... or bookkeeping.
QL: how soon can you exactly work?
me: *didn't understand* what?
QL: how soon can you work?
me: *super panic*
*pause*
hello? hello? *pretending to lose my signal* ahahahahahah!
QL: hello? are you still there?
me: yes, sorry about that. what was the question again?
QL: how soon can you work?
me: *now getting the message clear* oh.... anytime! im free anytime.
QL: thank you jo. i will forward your resume to blah blah blah.... and will soon call you back.
me: okay. thank you. thanks a lot.
QL: no problem.
me: bye.
QL: bye.
i don't think they'll ever call back. so for the meantime, i'll be an Angel Undercover.
may the force guide you!
