ONE IDEAL JOB

What is an ideal job for you? Is it the high paid job or the job with highest learning and growth?

Last November 2010, I applied as management trainee or a team member at Classic Savory Restaurant. It was my first choice to work as management trainee because I have the faith on my capabilities of handling things. During that time my application at Marco Polo Davao as a Banquet waiter was still a limbo.

During my application I know I satisfied the interviewer though they have not confirmed it yet I know it was a YES.

Finally they called me today telling me that I just got the job and asking me to quit from my present job. The option was a two months training in Manila with free air fare and accommodation in top of that was the 400+++ salary per day.

All I need to do was resign and work for them. I can admit that I was really interested in working with a rank. I know I have the skills and competent but more than any other offer – I can’t leave my present job.

In my job now I get to carry chairs and table, serve orders and other request, and set-up function rooms for the different events. For me this is an ideal job because even if I work without a rank I know that everyday I am learning what it needs to be on the rank. Little by little while I’m on this rope I keep on growing.

I do not see myself being shortchanged with lesser salary. The opportunity of personal and professional growth I have now is enough for my to say I’m happy with my first job. All the overtime duties are paid well with fun and excitement. After my 150 days legendary journey here, I will leave Marco Polo with great pride that I work during my working hours.
