In an era of employment where change is continually changing, technology is enhanced by artificial intelligence, and automation and robotics are having an impact in the workplace, it is often difficult for jobseekers at all levels to truly identify a work environment that offers the benefits of longevity and a sense of belonging. Life takes strange turns, and the 21st-century employer-driven marketplace epitomizes this fact. This makes the effort to find meaningful employment for the best-qualified and least-qualified even more challenging.
Carl Edgecombe holds a master’s degree in vocational and technical education from the State University of New York. He is originally from the Caribbean Island of Montserrat and presents a diverse array of skills that include backgrounds in music and law enforcement. His international portfolio also includes serving students with special needs in Essex, England, and teaching music in Montserrat before returning to the United States and entering the world of college residence life, where he discovered his passion for the field of career services.
Presenting the details in this format is intended to lighten the traditionally stressful subject of career planning and decision-making, which for many job seekers can be a daunting process. It is the author’s hope that as you read the contents of each line, you may also absorb the intended message.
“Life Is Not All About Work” is designed to educate and bring awareness of workplace practices to younger job seekers in a non-traditional format. Both experienced professionals and their younger counterparts are encouraged to use the message in each line of every verse as a stimulant to drive professional growth with a focus on self and personal values.
