I'm going for it...
 
I'm going for a job next Thursday - if I'm lucky, I could be training to be a doctor of medicine (not a surgeon, this training just requires sessions for understanding of human anatomy - not really training, apart from things like CPR and mouth to mouth ressussitation)! Soon, I could be sat in an office telling people about their health, though there's a lot more too it than that.

I just thought I'd let you know.

This sounds fantastic, dude! :) I hope you pass! ;)

Ramonsk8 03-28-2007 11:27 AM

Me too, good luck... In the future I want to be a concept designer for videogames! (drawing characters, items, vehicles and stuff)... I'm just 16 years old, so I still have some time to practice...

moxco 03-28-2007 12:07 PM

Good luck!

snuzi 03-28-2007 12:35 PM

Sounds great, man! I wish you the best of luck with that :).

But, if you wanted to become a doctor, wouldn't you have to go through med school and all that, or have you already?

OddjobAbe 03-28-2007 12:38 PM

I have already gone through medical school, but you've brought up a good point. I think I should have mentioned that.

snuzi 03-28-2007 12:39 PM

Oh ok, well then it seems like you're all set. Once again, good luck :).

Paramite of War 03-28-2007 05:51 PM

I dont see why you wouldn't make it buddy, do you have any worries?

OddjobAbe 03-29-2007 06:40 AM

Nope, no worries. Apart from if I don't make it, but when it comes to things like this, I always think like a pessimist.

That sounds cool, man. I wish you good luck with that, dude! :)

Good luck, OddjobAbe! :)

I always think like a pessimist.

You shouldn't think that way though. If you have the necessary requirements, as well as the knowledge to get you through the job, then you're more likely to get it than not get it.

OddjobAbe 03-31-2007 09:55 AM

So... only a night and four days until my job.
For some reason, I'm getting nervous.

Alf Shall Rise 03-31-2007 10:04 AM

It's completely fine to be nervous, you're probably worrying too much. You can do it!

Arxryl 03-31-2007 12:25 PM

Yeah. Yuo seem like you could do it! Go get 'em!



I hope it goes well. My prayers be with you. :)

OddjobAbe 04-03-2007 11:07 PM

Tomorrow... *shakes*. *falls off his seat with anxiety and confusing excitement*. *starts crying*.

I sure hope that I do get this job. This is what I've always wanted to do.
Also, I've always wanted to achieve a second doctorate, so if I manage this, my ambition will be complete!

moxco 04-03-2007 11:25 PM

I find with these things your nervous before they happen but once you get there your fine.

OddjobAbe 04-03-2007 11:51 PM

I sure hope you're right.

snuzi 04-04-2007 01:35 AM

You'll do fine, man. Don'tcha worry :).

OddjobAbe 04-05-2007 12:08 AM

I'm going at 4pm today. I'm trying not to worry too much, distracting myself with Rayman :).
Playing easy games helps me not to worry (not sure how).
Anyway, thanks for all the encouragement, I'll tell you if I get my doctorate!

Jordan 04-05-2007 06:23 AM

Bam! :) I hope you get through dude! You'll be fine, I know it! ;)

snuzi 04-05-2007 12:39 PM

No problem, at all, dude :D. Just try your best, and you'll definitely land the job :).

OddjobAbe 04-06-2007 09:50 AM

I... failed.

No, actually I did it! I'm a doctor! All that worry for nothing! And my job shouldn't be as stressful! *dances in excitement*

snuzi 04-06-2007 09:56 AM

Congratulations! I knew you could do it! :D

When do ya start, exactly?

OddjobAbe 04-06-2007 10:00 AM

On Tuesday!

Hey, congratulation!! :D You made it!

Hobo 04-09-2007 12:11 AM

I thought you were a technical engineer.

OddjobAbe 04-09-2007 12:13 AM

Yes, I was, but I went through med-school because I really wanted to be a doctor.

12345abe 04-09-2007 01:19 AM

Good job man
 
You really spooked me with that "i... failed" man!I am happy for you, and I wish you good luck with your job.

OddjobAbe 04-09-2007 01:26 AM

Thanks ;).
