Applied for the Job

May 4th, 2014 at 11:29 pm

I created a resume and applied for the sales job yesterday...

I am SO conflicted..
My feelings alternate between excitement about the challenges, increased income, travel and changes with a new job. And anxiety about the unknown, the travel and leaving my current job where I am happy (despite my boss' poor business skills).

I am not typically a person who is confused by her feelings - and that is stressing me too!

At this point I am telling myself Fate will decide - if this is meant to "be" then I'll get the job and if I'm better off where I am then I won't.

------

In the meantime, I am moving forward with increasing my pet sitting work. I am getting my insurance in place, designing some business cards and putting together a little website.

Working on this is exciting.. mostly exciting.. I'm a little nervous about this too. I'm worried I will spread myself too thin. But I keep reminding myself I don't have to take every job that is offered.. I'm going to have to say "No" sometimes.

    Good for you taking a step forward by submitting a resume. If you've never been a commission sales rep I suggest checking your library's books on The Art of Selling for example. How exciting to move your Pet Sitting business forward. Enjoy these new experiences, whatever the outcome.

    Very wise to plan for the day your current job may not be there. Finding a pet sitter that is reliable and trained to deal with medical issues is not easy, so you will have a head start over others. Good luck with the commissioned sales job - there is a lot of potential there.
