Introduction to the Jobs Podcast
00:00:11
Speaker
Hey folks, you're listening to the jobs podcast and I am your host, Tim Hendricks. This is the first and introductory episode to the jobs podcast. It's just a little snapshot into who I am and what the purpose of this show is.
Tim's Fire Service Career & Podcast Motivation
00:00:25
Speaker
I have made a career in the fire service. I've been doing that for a little over 25 years.
00:00:29
Speaker
And as I was helping my teenage boys look at different career options and the paths that they may have some interest in, I saw an opportunity to do a deep dive into various careers that our friends, neighbors, and family members do. The internet is not short in supply of articles and videos that can show you how to be a successful CEO.
00:00:53
Speaker
And while there's absolute value and things that we can learn from people that are successful CEOs, if everybody was a CEO, nothing would get done.
Exploring Different Careers
00:01:02
Speaker
So this podcast is going to do a deep dive into what your everyday job is like. If you can think about a job, I'm hoping to interview them and find out what their life is actually like. We can learn a lot from folks that have been successful because they've made failures. We all do as human beings.
Career Insights from Interviews
00:01:22
Speaker
and you can probably avoid some pitfalls and some expensive mistakes and streamline your progression towards a successful career by listening to some of the folks that I will interview. They will be able to tell you about areas of specialization in their career that may be of interest to you.
00:01:41
Speaker
We will of course talk about pay, starting pay and then what the ceiling is or the cap is on how much you can realistically earn. One of the main goals of this podcast that I want to achieve is a realistic snapshot of what someone's career is actually like. I have no desire to do a polished influencer, everything is great and rosy type interview.
00:02:06
Speaker
because every job has good days and bad days and it's important if you're looking at a career that takes up such a massive part of our lives that you know what you're getting into.
Podcast Philosophy: No Politics, Just Subscribe
00:02:18
Speaker
There are a couple promises that I can make you about this show. The first one is I will not be discussing politics or any hot button issues.
00:02:26
Speaker
I'm not looking for controversy or fame. I'm looking for information to share it with you, the listener. The second promise is that I will not ask you to like, subscribe and share until after the interview is over. I want to make sure that the information that you heard was something that you liked and that you feel it's worth subscribing to and sharing with your friends and family.
00:02:49
Speaker
So there you have it.
Closing Remarks & Call to Action
00:02:51
Speaker
That is who I am and a rough idea of what the podcast will be like. Thanks again for listening. Hopefully you do subscribe and share with everybody that you know and have a good day.
