Applied for a bunch of contact centre work. I feel like I’m going backwards, but trying to remind myself that it’s just so I can afford a bunch of driving lessons and then I can apply for more animal industry roles.
I’m gonna fucking cry.

Just think about it as a means to an end. Once you’re on your Ps you’re outta there

Short term pain, long term gain. It’ll be worth it!

Think of it as a stepping stone to getting what you need instead of it as a goal going backwards.
You need the income to get there so it’s just all going forwards and progressing towards it.

I know it can feel like a step backwards. And it’s hard not to think it is.
But you have a goal. The intention matters I think. There is a plan and this is a stepping stone :)

I’ve done the call centre thing too, in the past - not fun but gets you $. Just remember it’s a means to an end, and you’ll be moving on to something better in no time 💛

You’re not going backwards cos you’ve got a goal in mind. That’s smart thinking.
