Going back to the workforce

Yea, this is what I'm busy with these past weeks. I'm trying to go back to the workforce. It has been, maybe, 17 years since I worked full time in a company.

Back then, although I didn't finish my college degree, I could easily get a job. I was young and I was good in numbers, so the employers could see the potential of a productive and essential employee.

However, my path had to change when I decided to give time for soul-searching, inner healing, and working for the church. Everything was provided like shelter, food, clothing, and medical assistance. I was able to focus on the work assigned to me. But these provisions were from generous people who voluntarily helped us so we could continue with our work.

I had a few part-time jobs though throughout the years of the focused mode in voluntary work. Somehow, it kept me in touch with the mainstream outside my missionary-like life.
