First year in the real world*

I  finished my advanced diploma in food preparation and culinary arts in October last year and so far I have been experiencing the " real world" as it is called, I have been able to get a few offers at many restaurants and lodges, based around johannesburg,  North West and even limpopo.  Unfortunately I am not sure if these are the right places for me.

It is not because I don't know how to do the work, and I can easily cope with the work that they offer, I'm not sure if the suit me,

These days I have been feeling lost and demotivated*

So im currently doing myself a favour and challenging myself  by any means necessary,

How do you do that you might ask?

I got a job as a salesman,  which isn't glamorous or perfect at all, but If you think you can sell products and services to people , it's not at all easy, nobody want to ever be approached by a sales person.

Not only is it exctionally difficult to sell, but the way you need to approach,  pitch and close is even worse,  im trying to get a promotion at this import and export  company,  which is great,  because I love the fact that I can move up and open my own branch.

Ill try this out for one month and hopefully  it will be worth staying otherwise its back to the hospitality industry
