personal statement 5

I have a rather unique perspective on work, as in the place you go to obtain money, to pay rent and purchase items. I find work in general unfulfilling. I have no interest in going to a job, filling out the paperwork, getting the job done, going home, I have no interest in being a cog, in a machine I see accomplishing something with 100 people it could be accomplishing with 65, not to mention the fact that what I do accomplish is completely disposable, and personally and socially useless. I feel compelled to seek a niche in which I can work, accomplishing something tangible, something that makes the world a better place, in whatever way I deem to be important enough to spend my time. Dentists, Doctors, Fire officials, they all go home at the end of the day, they all provide a service to society that we need. I understand that these things are not for everyone, I am not a dentist, I am not a doctor, and I have no interest in becoming one, but I don't think that exempts me from helping somehow, in some way, Every day. I need a profession that I can provide service from, a profession that I can go home at the end of the day satisfied from. I want to work a job maybe as a cog, but in a machine that services an important function in society, only then will I be satisfied. Now I spend my time at work being a cog, while invisibly doing my own work elsewhere, assisting those people in my life accomplishing their goals, offering my support, advice, and couch. It takes a lot to get on your feet, I know this and I am dedicated in bringing those that i know to the their dream, wether that means helping them get into an apartment, or college, or helping them write their resume and land their first job. My family has a tradition of helping each other out, so when I went to college I stayed wtih my big sister, now my little sister has also moved in with us and has begun to attend college, I know when the time comes my little brother will probably be staying with me, so he can also go to college. Although I may end up with my little sister instead. My dad always told us we were his retirement plan, he invested in us and I am pretty sure we all will be. I had a completely unconventional and fabulous childhood, well it was partially conventional I guess, my dad worked, my mom taught us all and made dinner, we had fun if it killed us.
