o 0 o o o As We Live I By ELIZABETH HU?LOCK. PH.D. Job Success Depends On Employee's Allilude There is no such thing as the "perfect" job. Every job has some drawbacks tl some good qualities. A person who has had work experience learns this and is able to adjust to the draw backs. (Q) "I am a wido'W, years old, in good health, and with only a small pension lo live on. My married children have offered me a home with them but I prefer not to impose on ihem unlil I have io. I have never worked but I have been offered several good jobs as housekeeper for elderly peo ple. I am not sure I would like such work but I have no office training and factories won't take women my e. One of the jobs pays well but I have been told the o I would work for is very fus sy and hard to get along with. 2 The other that sounds good io me is with a widower who has three children in the teens, but he can't afford to pay me ' much and the work would be much harder than in the oth er job. Do you think I would be happy doing such work? (A) Whether or not you would be happy will depend, it seems to me, on your attitude. If you do not want to live with your children, and if you haven't enough mon ey to live on alone, then you m'i s t work and rake any job you can get with your limited training and Dr. Hurlock experience. While the job with the old lady may seem less desirable than the other, you should con sider which will mean more to you in the long run. It would certainly not overtax your strength and patience as the job in the home of the widower with three teen-age children would and it would give you a chance to save, some money. Must Cater To Whims Should you take the better paying job, you would have to learn -not to be upset by the fussiness of the old lady and to cater to her whims. If you did all you could to make her hap py and comfortable, she might be less fussy than she has been in the past. Then, too, you certainly would not have to work so hard as in the larger family and this would eliminate fatigue' that can make things get on your nerves. Be sure, in any job you .

The Minnesota medics said the human body has about 206 bones, but that the number changes.
