Personal Narrative: My Goals For A Job

Decent Essays
My current goals are to finish high school, then work for a year to save for a new car and college. I want to go to college and find a job so that I can have a better life, which is the reason my family came to the U.S. I’d like to become a mechanic so that I can fix my car and my family’s cars.

My dad has always told me to do something I love since once you get a job you have to be ready to have that job for a long time. After that I want to open my own auto shop. When I open my shop I want to help other people by teaching them how to fix cars so that they have training to find better jobs. When I was in Mexico I saw many people who had a family to raise and they didn't have a job; therefore, I want to help people who need the financial help. After, I want to go to Mexico and build a house, buy a big ranch with many horses and cows, and this way I will be able to help some people in Mexico by giving them a job taking care of my ranch and house.

Another thing I want to do is, make a house for my dad and mom because they have always supported me and helped me in everything since I was a little kid. I am very thankful for having them in my life and for raising me to become the man I am now. I want my little brother and sister to look up to me like I look up to my parents and I hope to be there for them
