Clouds Like Candy: A Daydream in the Sky

That evening, the clouds were rather interesting. 

Did not notice them, until i saw a lady running past me, took out her mobile phone and pointed at the sky. 

I followed her actions. 

The clouds looked like a big mountain of candy floss. (I'm obviously hungry.) 😁

It was a beautiful scene. 

Don't you think so ?

 

Job Hunting: The Quest for Paychecks and Sanity

Been back to job hunting again recently.

At my age, the hunting seems to be tougher.

We got to "fight" against the youngsters, people from other countries.......🗡🛡

It's even worse with news like:

• Major Asia bank to cut 4,000 roles as AI replaces humans
• Job jitters: Why do some worry about jobs when the S’pore labour market is strong?

Numerous resumes sent. Calls were very few.

Strange situations encountered too.

There was a call for a job, asking me to start following week, but the person went missing after which.
Tried to contact the person, but he just don't reply. Let me have the thinking i was talking to a ghost on phone that day. 👻

Another encounter, i was being asked for a face to face interview. Went for it, talked to the boss (in his office). Right in front of me, he placed my application form at his side cabinet. (???)
Was there a certain meaning to this action ? I thought to myself.
Anyway, this job position "ghosted" me too.

I contacted the company to ask for status, but was not being replied.

Time wasted ?

Not really, i came to realize, jobs nowadays are not the same as 30 years ago. The job scopes are more demanding.

You are expected to learn fast, work fast, adapt fast.

That's why more stressed up people too?

Employers are getting more difficult to please too. Agree ?

Keep trying.
