What am I going to do? Part 2

While I’m still weighing my options here, I’m accepting various jobs my friends/acquaintances are giving me, which are fixing notebook, translation jobs…etc.
A friend asked me, “How did you have this much courage, Note? You didn’t have a job. Your wife was pregnant with your first child, you are a 33 year old man, and you didn’t have a set plan of what you were going to do in Thailand. How did you think you would manage once you got back here?”

Well, I told her I was one of the most fortunate man in Thailand. I have my own house, I have a car(my bro’s old car), and my parents still happily feed us, at least for a while. All I need to think is how I am going to feed my own family.

As I was revising my goal, to be able to stay with my family as much as I can, I realized that my options were quite limit. I can’t really consider a high-paying, managing jobs (not that anybody would give me one) since it will take my time away from my family more than I would want. 9 to 5 jobs are an option, but I’d rather keep those as my last resort.

A few friends suggested freelancing jobs. Some of them are quite interesting if you don’t care much about job growth or job security. You could get as much or more money than you would as a 9 to 5 worker.

I still have a few friends to meet actually. I still have time before I have to decide on something.
