I started working outside of home last year. I used to only work at home because I am an online tutor, now I work two different jobs outside. I work at an elementary school as a tutor and a grocery store deli at weekends. Every Saturday and Sunday I serve deli meat and cheese for 16 hours.
I started borrowing books from our public library system. It is really a good source of books, new and old. They're being voted #1 in the national library reward. Medium size town,best library.
Last year I worked at four different places, including Chick Fil A, CVS and Waffle House. Finally I found the places I want to stay, with nicer people and the schedules that fit my needs.
I still tutor kids online, for K12 and SAT, ACT, college prep,etc... But next school year I'd like to get certified as a teacher. Not being a classroom teacher
but higher hourly pay at my school district as a tutor.
Stepping outside my home is a big change to me and it's quite satisfying. I get to make more money and meet different people.
I'd say I owe these changes to Covid because Omricron, the big resignation last year made a lot of people quit their jobs. I used to think I'd never find a job again because of the long gap on my resume. Now my life has jump started again. I could even be a school teacher if I want to ! There's no requirement for working experience anymore for being hired as a teacher. I love, love kids. Kindergarteners especially.
Changes are not always a bad thing, to certain people that get stuck in life, like me, they need changes.
