In a recent interview I was asked what ambitions I had at work and was really stumped for an answer (other than leave the company I work for!).

I have also had:
Earn £10,000 which I achieved

I have at present:
Earn £1,000 per week therefore £52,000 pa.

So wondered what other people had as their own ambitions within their organisation?

To make enough money to allow me to live in the manner I'd like to be accustomed to, without having to work too hard!

I have ambitions. I don't plan on working for someone. I plan on having my own companies.

I have a deal going with a close friend. We're going to the same school, but I'm doing Mathematics / Business Administration + Accounting, and he is doing Civil Engineering. The first person to reach $1 million in assets have to buy the other person a Corvette (max $50,000). The other person has to buy the first person a Dodge Viper (max $110,000) upon reaching $1 million in assets.

I'm firmly assured that I'll be the one buying the Corvette. And I plan to work for it.

Well only got one ambition at work to drop the below letter on me bosses desk.

Dear Boss,

After much thought, and serious discussions with friends and family, I have decided to pursue a different career.

It's extremely hard for me to do what I must do today or perhaps not.

My experience with you and this company has been so fulfilling and joyful that I almost cried when I realized I had to move on to a different career opportunity or then again perhaps not.

Yesterday I woke up and realized that this is the worst career experience I've ever had.

Therefore, I'm officially notifying you of my resignation.

My last day will be today.

This company has many problems.

On top of that, I can't stand to work for you any longer.

You, alone, have been a constant source of pain and suffering for me ever since I started this job.

I can't understand how you made it this far in the professional community.

I hate to leave, well maybe not hate more like will be glad too.

You have been such a mentor to me or did I mean tormentor.

Your guidance and friendship have made me regard you as another parent, of which I love so much or even made me hate you like a kidney stone.

Hopefully we can still stay in touch although I will try and ignore all your calls.

Maybe even get together for a barbeque this summer when hell freezes over.

Again, my dear friend thanks so much for allowing me to know such a well-adjusted and intelligent person such as yourself and you have and no doubt will go a long way in this company as the ass kisser that you are and always have been.

Let's get together for lunch soon when hell freezes over.

Today is a great day for me.

I will never have to see, hear or listen to you ever again.

Goodbye and good-riddance!


:D

if i live long enough.................

1) help others - already do in some ways :)

2) to achieve some respectable qualifications

3) find a job with a decent wage

4) doing everything to the best of my ability regardless of the financial situation with the employer example being on a low wage etc (obviously excluding 'not being payed')

5) give money to the poor people, and in other countries etc

6) improve myself as a person and find a job which pays nearer or more to what i should earn due to the improvements i have made

thats your lot for now...........
