Now I CANNOT stop thinking about it. There are just too many 'what if's and 'maybe's involved in this decision. And well, the best part is, I haven't even gone for the recruitment for the former so I have no idea if I can make it through or not. Though, ever since I heard they might be holding one in December I have been... thinking.
The latter has many perks - pretty good pay and amount of leave, but I am not sure I want to be stuck in an office Monday to Friday, 8.30am to 6.30pm, staring at a computer all day and at the boss's the beck and call, being a good little assistant and being organized in keeping track of things. Well that won't be for that long, but still. Although... there is something to be said about having a nice stable job, having a regular routine of meeting friends for lunch and going for dance practices, exercise sessions and dinners after work.
I guess though, the former has been something I have been considering and thinking about for the longest time but wasn't that serious about because there were no actual recruitments happening - the lure of travel, of excitement/non-routineness, of a fairly good pay, of smiling and serving people food (okay I know I'm weird but I actually do like that), is quite enticing. I guess I always figured I could go back to the corporate world after that, but then it'll probably be really difficult.
The travel part is a big plus, but people keep telling me I can find a corporate job which allows me to do that, and I don't even have to serve people for that. But I don't know. When you work for a company, you're inevitably doing someone's bidding, aren't you.
