I never knew what kind of job I wanted to do when I was a kid growing up. Other friends would state "I want to become a doctor, a lawyer etc etc". Not me.
I had absolutely no idea. Even when I grew up and finished school. When I started working, I learned one thing. I had to love my job to be able to be there. And that's what I have followed from then, till now.
