In the last 12 months, I've had 2 wonderful job offers.

The first one was a retail assistant at giftshop. I worked there for about 6 months or so, wrapping presents, managing the till and serving customers. It was an easy Saturday 9-5 job. The pay was less than average but I enjoyed it because I had a really cool workmate and I loved wrapping presents. Gift shops are full of pretty and colourful things so it was fun because I, too, like pretty and colourful things.

Today, I got another job offer as an assistant flourist. I'm really keen to accept it because I love flowers and I've always wanted to work in a flower shop. Flowers are pretty and colourful things and they always make me smile. This job will probably be a lot easier and more fun than my first job. The pay is still less than average but I'd love to pick up the skill and have the experience. The hours are Saturday 9-3, which isn't bad at all. Plus, I don't have to travel as far as I used to. I'm really tempted to accept it but I'm not sure if I should because there's a bit of an issue with ethics..

ARGH.

I know I'm very blessed to have had such nice job offers in a span of less than 12 months and I'm also thankful that I've been spared the agony of job-hunting and writing CVs.

But I can't help feeling a little depressed at the thought of having to deal with ethics all the time.

I guess I haven't really had it all that easy.
