im struggling to find a work for almost 2 months already. even a volunteer work were already filled here in Manila.. my cousin is currently working in the province. i'm thinking of applying a job on the company where she works but im still having second thoughts.
im already used here in the city and for sure it will be a big adjustment if i will work in the province.
please do give me some advice.. pros and cons that you can think of working and living in the province...
thanks and have a nice day..

i used to work in the province too. but i want to know what kind of work are you going to do there? i am in band and we (thats me and my band) has tried working in provinces already. its kinda scary because we are not familiar with the place and we are not also familiar of the people. but the nice thing about us working in the province is they give us place to stay and we have a free meal and that is dinner. we can buy our lunch and breakfast or we can cook for ourselves. if your cousin is settled there in the province, i mean she/he has a place where you can stay then why not give it a shot. just make sure the province that you want to work is a province that you know and understand the dialect. if they speak tagalo also like bulacan then i think it is okay. why not try it.... sometimes you dont know if you will like it or not until you tried it. not if you didnt like it then just plan the next move. you are still young. goodluck

i'll be working as a nurse. we have a family house near the hospital, but i'll be staying with my aunt. honestly, i don't know how to cook. their dialect is ilocano. im not that good in speaking ilocano but i can understand them a bit.
im praying that i can make it. its really hard to find a job here in Manila.
thanks for droppin' by!

if you really interested to get a job matter how far or where it is as long as it's legal you can have it, anyway, you cousin are their she won't leave you if you encounter difficulties in adjusting the life in the province. in the province you can minimize you expenses unlike in the city you have to spent more money in transportation itself.

If the chance of getting any job in your city is very negative, it will be ok for me, if you will try to work in the Province for a while! It will give you new learning in life and the people also which will widen your knowledge and help you to become more flexible to anybody and to any place.lifestyle.
