Work...Not Me!

Call me crazy!  Call me irresponsible...call me selfish...but I just couldn't bring myself to do it!  I didn't want to go back to work even if it was part-time!!

It all began with an advertisement that I saw in our local paper.  I called left a message introducing myself and that afternoon the gentleman returned my call.  He conducted an abridged phone interview and at the end of our conversation, I could tell I was in.  I would be doing tax returns.  

I guess I should tell you that although I majored in Accounting, when I got out into the work force, I hated...absolutely hated...accounting.  It was so boring!  However, I was lucky to find a job for a treasurer of a small company and worked directly for him doing cost analysis.  That I loved!   That was analytical.  That was logic.  But income/expense, debits/credits, receivables/payables was just not my thing!  Gag me with a spoon!!!  In my later years when I signed on with "the bank" that was different.  I dealt with people.  I fixed problems.  
That I loved!!

However, when reality set in, I began to think of everything I would be giving up even though it was part-time. The more I thought about it, the more down in the dumps it got me and so, I decided it wasn't for me and lost interest in pursuing the position. 

So call me what you will, especially when I know so many people are looking for work.

I was not ready to give up everything I have now.
