What always surprises me is that so many people spend time planning their careers. My approach has been pretty much to see something interesting and think 'oh, shiny, I wants me one of those' and go and get the job. Or not. Anonymous, I too am being sent on such a training course? I wonder if it will be the same one?Penthehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11200896933898936176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8927232314996425607.post-41525504892992534102011-02-12T05:06:14.102-08:002011-02-12T05:06:14.102-08:00Never had one and don't want one. Which was so...Never had one and don't want one. Which was something that caused a great deal of angst for some years until I realised that it wasn't actually necessary for me to have one. (A situation made possible by a husband who most definitely does have one.)<br /><br />Though, I don't know...does it count as a career if no-one pays you?

I try to do work that is interesting and meaningful to me, and eventually something else will come along which goes off on a tangent, which i follow... and then another one... and another...<br />and lo and behold i have had a career of sorts! and i have experience! and a skill set!<br /><br />but i've never had a plan.kazarihttp://myrope.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
