What do you do for a living?
I have found in my recent unemployment this question above is a loaded one for Americans. We put so much stock in what we do for a living as to let it define us as people, or worse yet, so much self esteem is generated from your occupation.
Really is what anybody does going to be on their tombstone it was so important? Doubtful.
Is this an American paradigm?
Is this why secretaries are now administrative assistants, and sales people are now store associates. etc, etc, etc?...do we have so much ego and self esteem tied to these crappy positions we have to make new titles to justify our self worth?
I have decided to NOT let what I do for a living define who I am as a person anymore.
Will you?
