Goodbye Freedom

As you all might already know, I moved back home to find a decent job. I had an interview with Maybank the day after I get back, thanks to my Aunt who knew the Head of the Actuarial Department there. I've been super busy with the Holiday (Eid) ever since last Sunday. The holiday last a whole month. I visited 5 houses the first day, 5 the next day and about 6 yesterday.

There was a lot of good food and I get to see old friends and family members who I hadn't seen in years. Everytime I meet an uncle or aunt who works at a big firm, they would offer me help to find a job. One uncle works for Petronas which is the giant oil company here and he said "I can help you get a job but you should know that if you work for us you can't marry anyone who works at the company."

*Puzzled Face*

And then last night an uncle called his friend who knows a lot of Actuaries so they can help me get a job. First of all, I haven't had the chance to apply for jobs myself and even if I had, I don't think that it'd be too hard to get one here. My problem with people helping me get a job is that I don't get to say no if I get an offer; thus, my freedom to scout around is gone?

I appreciate the help they offer but I have mixed feelings about this.
