Hi. My name is Karina. I am a flight attendant for a flight airline. I really
love my job but there are things that bother me recently. My mother is
getting old and she is alone in my hometown.
As a flight attendance, I travel a lot and often leave my home. I can go for
only a day but sometimes it takes me days to work. I always feel worried
to leave my mother alone at the house.
I cannot resign from being a flight attendant because I really enjoy it. I
earn much money and I can travel to many different places and countries.
I am really confused now. What can I do?
