Sister Needs A Job

[Jhua]

Hey yall. Sister is going through a rough patch in her life at the moment. It all revolves around her education. She's currently looking for a full time job and any help would be appreciated. Im trying to help her out as much as possible.

Friendswood/ clear lake area

I assume she'd take anything south Houston with a preference to being close to Friendswood/ clear lake area... i'll keep my eyes open.

J, I have to ask......

What is wrong with her education? I bet her education is much more advanced than my own.

I ask because my gut feeling is that she has fallen victum to the high standards of the Asian community. School is not for everyone. She can live a happy life without a degree. Many people spend their early years with their face in text books and miss learning how the real world operates. If she gets her foot in the door at a job that she likes, a strong and reliable work ethic will take her far. Many of us only have a HS level education or less and we are doing just fine. I always told my son that no matter what you decide to do in this world, I will always be proud of you if I see you are doing it at your best. Back her up and let her know you are proud of her no matter what road she takes.

That is exactly what has happened. Ive told her as much and im sure she knows it, but its hard to break out of how we were raised. Ive always questioned, am i becoming a doctor because i want to be, or because of my parents? Unfortunately, they aren't taking this well either.

Your parents only want the BEST and then some for both of you. They are only looking out for the "family tree".

Stay on your journey to be a doctor. Just be the doctor you want to be and not one those square kind that can't talk to the average man. Lord knows, you are already getting your "street" smarts from us .
