My dream job!

Growing up I always wanted to be a doctor or teacher. You know, the typical dream many of us have as youngsters. Heck, sometimes I still think of becoming those things. However, every since I started my current job, I've felt like I finally am good at something and its something I enjoy and want to further. And that might just becoming true. 

When I was first pregnant with E, I worked very part-time as a dental assistant. Once I told my employer that I was pregnant, they fired me for bogus reasons. Well I didn't really want to get another job and didn't really try. The extent of my trying was sending my resume to ads on Craigslist. I really had no intention of actually finding a job, being pregnant and all. Well around the 12-13 week mark of my pregnancy I got a call for a medical billing position and they wanted to bring me in for an interview. It was a full time position, which I never had before and didn't really want to work full time. This turned out to be a blessing. I got the position. I was nervous about it but thought, why not? It will give me something to do until the baby gets here then I will just stay home with her. I ended up falling in love with my job, the people and company. I was good at what I was doing and I made decent money for having no experience and no degree. I could see this position taking me somewhere in life. So after I had E I went back to work. This is when I decided I was going to make myself known and show how much I enjoy what I do and that I want to further my opportunities rather than just stay where I was. I got pregnant with S after being back about 6 months but that didn't stop me. Before I left for maternity leave I had a meeting with the CEO, who made sure to let me know that she saw my hard work and determination and ensured me that when I returned I could learn some more things and that they definitely have an eye on me for moving up in the company. 

So long story short, my dream job is to be in health care management, specifically the finance portion of it. I love learning new things and I love my current position. This job I went into thinking it was temporary and just another job turned out to be my "calling" and is leading me to my dream job! I am truly blessed.
