The world of work


by L Smithson
c ___ Musicians, writers, teachers and doctors perhaps, but otherwise I think many
of us just ‘fall’ into a job because we’re in the right place at the right time.
Clearly, however, you need specific skills or qualifications for certain jobs.
1
If, however, you want to be a teacher or work in public relations, those
skills will be vital if you are to succeed and be happy.
There are, of course, many other factors to consider when starting out on the career ladder.
Are you ambitious? How important is money? Are you prepared to work long hours in order to
get an early promotion? 2 Is security important to you? What about
responsibility or opportunities to travel?
These are some of the questions I asked myself when it was time for me to think about the job
I would like to have most. I knew that a career in the world of finance was not for me as I don’t
enjoy working with numbers. 3
So, with all of those thoughts in mind I decided to train to become an English teacher.
4
When I found a course, I gave up the job I had been doing and started
training. The course was the most challenging thing I have ever done and at times I wondered
whether I had made the biggest mistake of my life. But when I’d qualified and actually started
working, I realised it was the best decision I’d ever made. 5

a Are you able to work in a stressful environment?


b Although many of my friends thought I didn’t have the right personality; I knew it was the
right decision for me.
c There are very few people who know from an early age what they want to do when it’s
time to choose a career.
d And here I am ten years later still teaching and still enjoying my work.
e If you want to be an accountant or banker, you need to be good with numbers, though you
don’t necessarily need good communication skills.
f I’m much better suited to working with people and have never liked routine.
