Please don't laugh. I sent a resume in last month and alhumdulillah today I went to my first day of work... at McDonalds.
I learnt some safety procedures, customer service skills, cooking, dealing with problems etc.
Also, I got some practise at the back looking at other employees making burgers. Can't wait to start...
I am 18, attending high school, working both a online (full time) and now a part-time after-school job... The problem however is that my parents seem to think that I am now financially stable to getting married and starting a family.
My parents alhumdulillah got married at my current age in India and came to Canada a month later. Seems pretty crazy but they have been married almost 22 years. (Not sure how lol) Now they think it's my turn.
Why did I get a second job? I got a second job because I recently got my full G Drivers license which allows me to drive without another person in the car with me. Also, I can drive my little brother and his friends to places (annoying). Now I just want my OWN car; I have saved all money from Eid, baby-sitting job, online job, and I have close to $15,000 saved up. Gas and insurance costs a lot so I am still waiting for a car.
I still think I am too young and naive to get married. Might want to stay single and enjoy life more before it all changes. My parents want me to get married but I said after College/Uni MAYBE.
My question to you; I am financially stable especially since my Dad will pay for marriage and stuff. But I am too young to get married right? I live in Canada and I have NOOOO friends my age married. They all wait until after post-secondary (College/Uni). Is this a reason to wait until marriage also?
InshaAllah whenever I'm in Canada, I'll buzz you. Just pray that when I get to come there, I bring along a pretty capital as well inshaAllah.
Inshallah you get the opportunity to come here. (Don't come now if you get the chance, it's really cold.)
Inshallah you bring some money with you... for me
What type of business are you into?
I can get you a job at McDonalds also.
