I just spent almost an hour doing a career test thingymagiggy
But my brain is too dead to process the (partial unless you want to PAY for the full) results
Melissa is conscious of existence, meaning, purpose, potential and destiny of humankind, people, and self. Melissa is motivated by a self-felt, self-accepted calling to the cause of good, growth, and gain in the lives of others. Influential communication of ideas is a primary way of achieving those objectives. Perception and thinking tend to be holistic and conceptual; i.e., seeing the big picture. It is important to see which of the other traits are interactive with this trait because there can be many interesting combinations. This is a major trait in cultural, intellectual, academic, and creative activities. It includes ideas, concepts, theory, ethics, and values.
Melissa has a strong preference to work under the management or supervision of others who are competent and knowledgeable in their area of expertise. This also may indicate a preference to avoid work of an independent nature (i.e. self-directed, self-planned, self-managed). Performance, morale, energy, enthusiasm, and quality of work tend to reflect how satisfied Melissa is with the working environment as created and managed by the motivational and inspirational leadership of a manager, director, supervisor, or lead-person.
Melissa does not prefer activities requiring verbatim perception, recording, and/or processing of details, especially where numbers are involved.
Melissa's preferences, more often than not, are motivated by such things as sensing and seeing aesthetics, essence, philosophical and psychological meaning, and effect of color. Melissa probably doesn't consider the saying, "Beauty is more than skin deep" as a cliche. Further, Melissa considers pattern, texture, and spatial measure: size, shape, distance, dimension, perspective, relationship, etc. with the same regard. This includes abstract dimensions and patterns, graphics, layouts, etc. (NOTE: That higher artistic sense is the source of abstract art, animated films, computer graphics, fractal geometry, new clothing designs and styles, modern architecture, etc.) Melissa would probably make a permanent mental note of the quote from Carl Jung, "The artist is essentially the instrument, and he stands below his work, for which reason we should never expect from him an interpretation of his own work. He achieved his highest with his composition."
Melissa feels both privilege and responsibility to use communication (including persuasion) to voluntarily provide beneficial information to others. This includes strongly motivated benevolent and literary traits. Self-satisfaction comes almost exclusively from the subjective realization that the information, voluntarily given, has been helpful to other persons. Melissa is further motivated to learn and understand the other person(s) needs wishes and listening preferences. Non-persuasive service communication can become persuasive and persistent when expressed in the interest of someone needing Melissa to stand up for them.
Melissa has moderate mental/sensory/physical preferences for handling material processing. This may or may not involve machines or machine operation. It basically means motivation to manage (i.e., functionally manipulate) things at hand from one place to another, from one process to another, from one material state to a new one because of the process. This can be machine work or craft work or even supervising ("bossing") the work of people.
Copy activity involves detail and routine, which is preferred by Melissa and includes reproducing images, information, etc. by machine operation and/or graphic design and layout. (NOTE: It is an asset for database management, computer publishing activity, administrative or library work, and/or warehouse processing).
Depending on the situation, Melissa generally prefers simple, routine tasks in a familiar environment. This preference of Melissa's is probably limited to hearing or reading exactly what was meant and doing as instructed. (NOTE: This is a good trait for operational, administrative, or clerical activities. {In fast-food establishments for example, it is essential.}) Three kinds of persons typically have issues with this kind of job: 1) Those who don't hear (sometimes won't hear) or remember specific instructions, 2) those who feel entitled or licensed to do it some other way, and 3) those who simply cannot, for many reasons, "keep their nose to the grindstone" in such basic, routine tasks.
Melissa does not prefer activities requiring verbatim perception, recording, and/or processing of details, especially where numbers are involved.
Melissa's vocational preferences include such activities as gathering, processing, recording, transmitting, filing, and/or retrieving information. Key preferences lean toward proper language usage, spelling and punctuation; referencing, filing, and retrieval abilities; and attention to detail.

How come it was easier for me to find the man that I love (well okay, maybe that is an exaggeration- it was easy for me to fall in love once I had found the right one - not saying that there weren't many "frogs" before that) but so challenging to find a job I love?
I have officially been unemployed for 6 months.
I do know that it's about time I get back into the groove of working and repairing my leaking bank account.
BUT, finding the right job is, like I said, challenging.
I've taken to job sites, classifieds, LinkedIn etc.
It's easy to browse and see things that interest me but actually applying is another thing altogether.
Perhaps i've enjoyed the freedom of being able to be present at every family gathering, always being available on my husband's off days and cooking regularly instead of eating out or shoving food down my throat after an excruciating day just to fill my stomach before crashing into dreamland.
Lets just say, I do not miss being left out of celebrations, family dinner and impromptu weekend outings due to being stuck at work.
With that being said, I've started to look out for office hour jobs instead but there are cons to that as well.
Maybe i'm fighting the pros and cons in my head too much.
It's time to start applying and going for interviews.
Starting now!
(or tomorrow..)
Lesson of the day: Dont stay unemployed for too long lest you end up enjoying it too much.
