Personal Narrative: My Current Job

Decent Essays
It is very natural for a student like me to have growth needs high as we are shaping our career and we expect our growth to turn into the most favorable way we need. In my previous job, I was learning everything new and I was able to relate to my job. After certain extent, I wasn’t able to see job satisfaction and my job became a so much like machine operation.

    I have always been interested in learning and using new ideas. Throughout my life, I have invariably drawn from my life experiences, newly learned ideas and my continuing education to help problem-solve sensibly and realistically allowing me to move forward or help others reach their goals. Although I have no formal teaching experience, in my past work and involvement in organized sports, I have repeatedly used the Progressive philosophy. When dealing with 13 & 14 year olds many situations arise such as bullying, personality clashes or simply not understanding a drill or play. I deal with these situations by asking questions to stimulate a discussion, allowing them to draw on past experiences; positive or negative, consequently allowing them to come up with a solution or grasp the knowledge they are seeking.…

    I do believe that with time as with everything else this will not even be a question. I will say my biggest struggle with this is mainly because we have so many Team members that keep raising the bar and setting new (higher) expectations. How satisfied are you with your personal growth relative to your position in the company? I do not think I will ever be satisfied with my personal growth because I do not look at this as something that needs to ever slow down or stop.

All though I never thought about how someones GPA could affect how they work, until now.…

Although, their is still much more to defining what identity is I will do my best to define exactly what is.…
