Job Just Had Not Found Me yet
Submitted by: Katherine
IrelandA 20 year old drama student.
I feel so grateful that I can finally post a story on here.
So for the past few months I had been working at a restaurant. This was a job I really hated and I desperately was searching to find a new job. And of course because I was desperate, I could find no other jobs.
Then I decided when I was at work I would only focus on the positive aspects like a friendly customer or getting a great tip. This really made my work more bearable.
Two weeks ago I wrote a resignation letter for my job at the restaurant and dated it for the 17th. I then printed out the letter and put it in a envelope and left it on a bookshelf.
I kept looking for other jobs. I could find nothing but I kept telling myself “There is a job out there for me, it just has not found me yet”. Then I found that a local retail store was looking for staff, so I applied and left my application form in the store on Friday.
By the Saturday the store manager invited me to come for an interview on the Tuesday. Before I went to the interview I reminded myself that the job was already mine.
Then on the Wednesday the manager called me and offered me the job!
I then realized it was Wednesday the 17th of December, the day I had put on my resignation letter! I was blown away.
Also this just happened to me today:
I was walking home and I passed this wedding store. When one of the women who worked there ran after me and asked me if I would be able to help them out, as they were shooting a PR video and they needed someone to pretend to be a client. Of course, as a drama student I said yes! So I got a small acting job, which I was again incredibly grateful for. Bonus, I didn’t even have to audition!
I would just like to remind people that this truly works, you just need faith. I now am working towards manifesting perfect teeth, my ideal 110 lb body, a boyfriend and more acting jobs.
