I only have a few days to decide, 4 days to be exact. Should I stay in PIA (current job as a teacher)

or Move to convergys (call center agent)
Both company are really good. PIA being the best English academy in Baguio city and Convergys being the best call center in the Philippines.
PIA gives me opportunity to do what I do best, provides me an avenue to make a deference to other people. Gives me satisfaction and makes me want to learn more about things around me, specially human behavior. BUT I don't see myself being somewhere in the next five years, so is with my bank account. Sure we often say that we should work to make us happy and not for the money, but that's a huge bullshit, I would be a super hypocrite if I would say I want to work t0 be happy. The reason why I am working is for my family to have food on our table and I want to have the best food in there.
Convergys can provide me with opportunity to try something new, an adventure and an opportunity to dream higher. It can provide me a way to make my life better BUT there are a lot of IF's and Maybe's.
I don't really know! Will I regret moving away from my comfort zone? Will I regret it that I did not try something to make my life better? and a lot more than that... The main question though is...
Next week! Is is PIA or Convergys? Sigh!
It's too hard to choose. But I believe that the only consideration is compensation and hapiness. That sad thing is those two things won't go on same way and same time.
ReplyDeleteagree with that.. if only those two things go together it would be easy to choose..
DeleteIn terms of career, go with the one with your natural instinct and choose the one which is more promising in terms of the "long-term."
ReplyDeleteI agree... that is why I choose none of the two... they are both promising but I dont see myself staying in a long term basis.
DeleteFollow what your heart says,
ReplyDeleteI did.. thanks a lot
Deletefollow what your stomach is saying :D
ReplyDeleteyou've mentioned the reason you are working is to provide the best food for your family... so go for that.
at the end of the day, you can measure your success on how you feed your family.
I love that :)
DeleteBeing a teacher is a noble profession but one of the least paid, sadly. Follow what your heart says but you must also consider your future. That includes the kind of compensation you are getting.
ReplyDeletees I agree... I really have to weigh everything.. :)
DeleteI've worked in CVG for couple of months in 2007 and JPMorgan Chase in 2008-2010. That being said, you know where I stand. ;)
ReplyDeletethank you..:)
DeleteWhen my team ask me this sort of choice-question, I tell them to list it down in two columns: Pros vs Cons. That gives you a more visual and objective method of determining what it is you want, or what is good for you :) Take into account long-term goals as well!
ReplyDeletethats what I did and thank you... maybe thats the reason why I choose neither.. :)
