Nowadays, many youngers are struggling to
find part-time jobs or volunteer works to do even when they do not have enough
time to rest. Do you think they just need more money or some volunteer hours
for their graduation? My answer is no. They are seeking to accumulate
experiences which only can be earned from society, and these are never gained
from just learning the skills of sports or playing musical instrument. I’ll
explain my views on this by the reasons addressed below.
To begin with, young people can meet
various type of people and develop their own personality in positive way. The
period before people enter a society, especially before they get a job, is the
most important time to build their identity and it last until they die in most
cases. If they do a part-time job or volunteer in a community that time, they
can meet many people and learn how to communicate with diverse people. It will
directly affect to their own personality. For instance, I will give an example
of myself. When I was a middle school student, I regularly volunteer at an
orphanage in my hometown. There were many children grew in different
environment, and also, their characters were all different. It was a hard time
for me to deal with them, but finally we understood each other and could be
friends. I learned how to get along with other people, and this experience
helped me when I go to high school. Had it not been for this experience, I
would not have been able to develop my sociality.
On top of that, it is possible to make
relationships which will be helpful for their future while doing a part-time
job or volunteering. As we all know, personal connections are the most
important thing among society. Some people met in the work spaces might be able
to support them and help them out at hard times. For example, I will talk about
my college friends A and B to elucidate my point. In the case of A, she had
been doing many part-time jobs whenever she had some spare times. Unlike A, B
never did hard works such as part-time jobs or volunteer. When it was time to
graduate university and find their job, A easily got a job she wanted to by
supporting her friends. However, B didn’t have any network associated with his
interest, so he started to find internships and had hard time to get a job.
To sum up, accumulating work experience by a
part-time job or volunteering in a community at a young age can be a valuable
opportunity to build positive personality, and also develop social connections
which is helpful when they are in trouble. In this regard, the first case would
be a better choice for young people. (471 words) |
