Ok, a few people have given me some fantastic advice so far. However reading through the posts it seems in order to get the best tailor-made advice it’s important to define myself for the community. I’ll try to do so with this thread. I’m going to be blindingly honest. I will state my strengths (Hopefully I won’t sound like too much of an ass - I’m really quite modest in real-life) and weaknesses - all based on the feedback I have received and my own self-aware nature.
I am 19. I am a Type-1 Diabetic and hope that products such as InstantShine will help me control mood and as a result bloodsugar.
I am an absoletely outstanding communicator in a one-on-one environment. In factor I’m so phenomonally articulate that when I change jobs I always land work that is significantly beyond the pay-grade that I am qualified / experienced to complete. In fact I sell myself so well that I always get any job I have applied for and reached the interview stage.
I am highly intelligent and a swift learner. I completed a 2-year college course that had 18 units to finished in two weeks. I’m not exaggerating, my teachers were completely stunned and couldn’t believe my performance. Unfortunately they literally couldn’t mark the work as quickly as I was producing it and as a result I only achieved BTEC National Diploma Bus Studies Distinction-Distinction-Merit - just a few points shy of the ultimate grade.
MY WEAKNESSES
Possibly due to diabetes, I have a very low sex drive. I tend to make little effort to impress or even associate with girls and as a result most of my friends are males. Leading some of my family members to question whether I am gay. (Which I’m not. Although I have several very good friends who are gay / bisexual)
I also tend to get lost in a crowd. On a one-on-one basis I am exceptional but in a crowd I tend to remain quiet and often don’t express myself as clearly as I would like and tend to feel awkward or intimidated.
I have had several very well paid telephone-based customer services jobs. Although being an employee of a decent standard I tend to get quite anxious when I start a new job and am first on the telephone. I tend to find dealing with customers in that capacity quite stressful - at least until I familiarize myself with the position.
I have just been offered a job that is in a similar capacity - managing a regional area for a company. I have been told very clearly that the employer is looking for somebody who is capable of managing. They are not concerned that I am young - they will employ me on probation for six months, after which they have stated that they will pay me precisely what I am worth in comparison to my performance. It could easily be as much as £40,000 per year.
I’m really interested in how pheromone products will specifically benefit my career; importantly I need to establish a mix that will help distinguish me and enable me to totally optimize my pay grade without an OD / threatening or intimidating my superiors.
Basically I am highly organized / intelligent / productive / passionate / articulate / etc. But I really struggle to bring these skills to the forefront whenever I am asked to work within a group arrangement. If I can learn to utilize pheromones and develop just a little more confidence and interpersonal skills I could potentially revolutionize my earnings…
I apologize for the long post. Any suggestions would be phenomenal - and will potentially really help me improve my life. Cheers everyone.
