What should I do if I don't have a job I like and it's painful to go to work?

"If you don't have a job you like, it's very painful to go to work." Suddenly seeing this sentence, I thought of myself. I don’t know anything about the future, and I don’t want to do the work of my major. When I am recruiting, I basically apply for any position. Insurance, sales, administration, secretarial, operations, product managers, all tried one by one. Because I don't know what I like, and I don't know what I can do, I fall into a vicious circle of self-doubt and self-denial.

What should I do if I don't have a job I like and it's painful to go to work?

first job

The school recruited a local traditional enterprise, nominally a management trainee. In fact, most of the time, Guan Pei is synonymous with filling the pit, where you need to go.

Internship started in July 2016, a one-year internship period. During this period, I went through the rotation of customer service - warehousing - front desk - administration. Of course, during the internship, I also "ridden a donkey to find a horse", interviewed substitute teachers, interviewed sales positions, and visited account managers of other companies. Of course, after looking around, I still couldn't find what I wanted to do.

After graduating in 2017, the company directly transferred me to a regular position. My previous experience in management training has been working in the customer service department, and I feel that I can’t learn anything. At that time, there happened to be a vacancy for the hc of the administrative commissioner. I thought that the administrative position, compared with the customer service chores, can always learn something more. In this way, I knocked on the door of the HR manager and took the initiative to fight for a job for the first time.

I thought that the administration of the general manager could learn more than the chores in the customer service department, but I didn't expect that it was my own wishful thinking and it was too simple. The customer service department went to the general manager's office, but changed the place to do chores. There are more chores, and there is no growth.

Every day is busy and busy, and there are various projects that need to be followed up every day, but there are very few really meaningful things. So I fell into self-doubt for a long time. Sometimes I felt that I was very busy and powerful, and sometimes I felt that I had no core skills and no competitiveness.

So, I began to pay attention to the recruitment information quietly, and silently submitted my resume again. Every time I submit my resume, I get stuck in the thinking alley of "what do I want to do" and "what can I do". At this time, the general manager's secretary resigned, and the leader found me, hoping that I could fill this vacancy. I thought that I finally got rid of the fate of doing chores, and I could learn something. After all, I used to envy the work level of the secretary sister.

In this way, I took over the job of secretary again. No matter how positive things seem to be developing, I thought that I had become a secretary, and naturally I was not the administrative commissioner before. To my surprise, leadership means the responsibility of "administration + secretary", and I instantly feel like a routine. Finally, I couldn't bear it anymore, and after two months of work, I asked the leader to resign.

second job

I changed my job and wanted to change to a better platform. In this way, I jumped from a traditional company to a well-known company in the province as an administration. The company is located in an urban area, an office building with a good location. The price is that it takes an extra hour to catch the bus every day to and from get off work. Except for the first day of my job, I worked overtime almost every day. From the first half an hour, it gradually became one hour, two hours, and the last two hours became the norm.

Big companies are indeed busy, much busier than before. However, the work that is repeated every day, week and month, if you plan your time well, the later period will be fine. However, this repetitive work makes me feel afraid again, what about my competitiveness?

After the 3-month probation period, I once again proposed to the leader to resign. Although the leader told me about the development and prospects of a lot of positions, I made up my mind and insisted on leaving.

I'm tired of day-to-day repetition, and tired of working every day without any creativity. After these two experiences, I clearly realized that the functional position is not suitable for me.

third job

This is the first job that I have always been related to, but I don't have the confidence to do. Although I passed CET-6, my oral English level is still on the basis of Chinese English. Using my broken English, I successfully knocked on the door of my third job, a foreign trade company.

Is this my first time meeting with a foreign trade company? No, this is probably the twentieth time. But it's true that my first successful onboarding was always scaring off interviewers. Yep, scare away.

The first interview with a foreign trade company was on-site translation, a bunch of professional terms, please forgive my vocabulary in the scope of expertise, and leave. The second time, the boss affirmed that I learned that the foreign trade business will definitely stay for a while, and the stability is not strong.

In this way, I seem to know what I really like, I like challenges, I like new things. Every day at work, like fighting chicken blood, I keep looking and asking. From the beginning of waiting for customers to ask, to finally taking the initiative to search for customers, everything is new, and everything wants to be improved.

When you work hard enough, good luck will follow.

I'm actually very lucky. In the first month of my employment, I started billing. I heard from the old man that I got started very quickly. Moreover, this client is also my current boss. There are also two friends in the same period as me. I came across the line when I was there, and the English is the worst. However, I was the first to open the order, and the performance was also the highest.

After I compared the three of us, although my spoken language was the worst, I was the one who dared to speak the most and was the first to speak to the customer. The seemingly smooth foreign trade work, in fact, is constantly stepping over the pit, often climbing up from this pit and entering the next pit.

Although I have only been with this company for six months, I am still very grateful, especially my boss. Although they didn't have a good time with each other when they resigned, some of their wages were deducted. But without the pressure and teaching she gave me, I couldn't have grown so fast.

Of course, I am also very grateful for the company's platform. Without the company's platform, I really couldn't find out that I liked doing foreign trade, although the company didn't give money. Although the salary is linked to performance, the proportion is very small, at least 1/3 lower than the normal counterparts.

The resignation this time has nothing to do with work, because I want to go home to develop and prepare for marriage.
