Thinking about my future job is somewhat stressful to me. As a journalist, there is a lot of uncertainty about how is going to be the labor field in the next years. The media is evolving at every moment and the old forms of journalism are disappearing or are getting obsolete. So, in few words, the prospect does not look so good.
BUT, not all is that bad. When i was on holidays at the patagonia i met a lady who was a journalist. She was working for the Municipality of Coyhaique and the Servicio Nacional de Turismo (SERNATUR) doing polls to the people who travels through the region. She told me that she travelled a lot and that the working hours weren't that much so she got plenty of free time. Her story makes me happy in a way, because it makes me realize that there is options for the journalist besides the typical work at media.
I really don't want to get in a job that doesn't allow me to have time to do other stuff with my life. That is an important point to me but i know is the most difficult to get because journalist don't have defined working hours. That's is why i really like the job of this lady at the patagonia, because it looked so relaxed and she get the chance to travel through a beautiful region and also knowing people.
I think my desired future job would like something like that. With free time, a lot of travels and far away from this chaotic city.
About the salary, i don't have great pretensions. If it is enough to eat and to get a place to live warm and cosy, i'm okay with it.
The good side of the uncertainty in this profession is you can do many things and find a good job!
