Applying for a new job in a different country is exhausting.

Anyone who knows me, will say that I am someone who has a desire to make it in a different country. I was born in Copenhagen, 39 years ago, but Denmark has never truly felt like home to me. I don't know why, but something in me tells me to leave and never return. I almost succeeded back in 2014, when I secured a job in Scotland. I spent 2 and a half glorious years in a little town called Greenock, and I loved every single minute of it.

Next year, it'll be ten years since I made that move. Do I want to work abroad again? Absolutely! Where do I want to work? Well, that's a little bit harder to answer.

Of all the places I have been, two places stick out to me: The United Kingdom and the United States of America. I just have a small issue: Both those countries require a work visa if I want to work there. How do I get one? By having a job offer from an employer in one of those countries. How do I get a job offer? By having a work visa.. It's exhausting!

But - that has not deterred me from applying in those countries. As I am typing this, I am applying for warehouse jobs in the USA. I figure my European work ethic will benefit me well there. My work ethic is to work hard, be on time, don't have a sick day and take as little vacation time as possible. I only take the amount of vacation that I need to take.

My work ethic is spotless. I come to work every day, always willing to do overtime and I am pretty much always early. If I am late, I phone up my boss and tell them.

I figure that kind of work ethic is something that will benefit me in the USA.

So now I am in the process of writing up applications to different warehouses! One of them must need me, surely..
