This world is just a big mess. Don't be afraid to look for a job, be bold and go for it!

A year ago, I posted in the group about wanting to work at a convenience store or milk tea shop, and whether it was possible to work as a Starbucks barista for a lifetime.

At the time, I had just graduated from a vocational college and didn't have any notable skills. I was short and overweight, with an ordinary appearance, and didn't know how to apply makeup.

At that time, I considered working in a factory or as a store clerk at a milk tea shop or convenience store. I didn’t even dare to apply for a job at Starbucks because I was short and overweight—I was really overweight and felt very insecure.

At the time, I just wanted to find a job that would keep me from starving, preferably one with social insurance and no night shifts.

Over a year has passed since then, and I was lucky enough to get a job as a coordinator at a hotel after the previous female employee resigned. It’s a general administrative role. Later, due to more good luck, the director and supervisor resigned, forcing me to take on a lot of extra work. Currently, due to cost issues, the company doesn’t want to hire another supervisor, so they promoted me to supervisor.

Although my salary isn’t high, I still have an associate degree, I’m short, and I’m still overweight—I haven’t lost any weight. But at least in such a difficult economic environment, I have a job that pays regularly, has weekends off, and provides social insurance and housing fund benefits.

So, lazy folks, sometimes the world really is a makeshift operation. I actually feel unprofessional, and after working for a year, I still feel like a child.

But it’s okay. Let’s take it slow.

Good luck will eventually come to each and every one of us lazy folks.
