For my contrast essay I thought me looking for a new job vs my current
job. With my current job I have been there for six plus years. I'm kind
of up on the pole kind of thing. I love what I do, working with kids, and there families. You never know who you will get or what there needs are. When you are able to help a family it is a real nice feeling. Most of our parents respect us and tell us how thankful they are that they have such good caregivers. If I got a new job I would be the new
girl, and that is no fun. I like who I am and where I am at my job, like people come to me for help and I know what is going on with our families and how to do the paper work. I have also worked with about all the same people for the last six
years. Most of us work very good with each
other. The biggest thing with me looking for a new job is
I want different hours. If I was to get a new job the
hours would have to work around the schools hours.
If I could change one thing about my job is the hours. If I got a new job, I would look at the hours first to make sure that they would work for me and my family. I'm working 9:30 to 5:30 it is to late, because I don't get home till 6:15 and with kids that's dinner time. It is also hard in the morning because we don't really have time in the mornings to eat or do anything. I would like to work 8-4 or even earlier than that. I don't like working 9:30 to 5:30 it is to hard with kids. I also trying to think about when my oldest goes to school and the hours she will be gone. I would love to have more time at night with my family. If I worked different hours at a new job I would have more time.
The hardest thing about a new job is the new people. At my current job I know everyone and who to trust and not trust. With a new job I would have to get to know everyone again. I also know who I need to go to when I need help or who will help you. At a new job I would have to ask all the questions again and find my way. It will be very hard to leave my team, because we have been working together for the last three years and one of them for the last six years. We work great together and half the time we don't even need to talk to each other we just know what to do. I would not have that with a new job and will have to learn how to read people and what they want me to do things like that.
I will say I do get good benefits right now. We have Dental, Eye, Health insurance the eye is very good and the dental and health are o.k. I don't know how good the insurances would be starting off again. Like where I work they pay for my health insurance. I don't think that many places pay for our health insurance, because most health insurance just keeps going up and up in cost. I also have built up my sick time so I have a bunch of time built up. If I started a new job I would not have sick time if one of the girls get sick. At my job now it adds up faster for me where I have been there so long. If I got a new job I might not even get sick time or I would not add up as fast. I really need my sick time because of my kids are sick a lot too. This part would be hard to leave just because I have work so hard to get my benefits. Sometimes other places have other very good benefits too.
As you can see I'm in a hard spot with me job. Do I just quit and start over again or stay and deal with it. I really feel that I'm at the quit part. I'm ready for a new start and new people. If that means I have to start over at the bottom of the pole than I'm ready. I will really miss my old job the parents and the staff. I will stay working with kids and their families. As long as I'm working with kids and there families I will be happy.

Hard to accept an essay about jobs that doesn't get specific enough to even tell the reader what the job is you have now. That particularly hurts in graf 3 where the reader deserves to know what the team is like, how it works together, and so on--without that there really is no contrast to the new job. It's just too vague. So, kicking this back for rewrite.
