Note: this was written in June, and didn't publish till now because it was on my phone.
Spent last week studying for Finals and getting ready for graduation. But the one thing I forgot to mention was that I received an email from my teacher about an available job at my dream office. So I turned in a resume. The next few days were filled with self doubt and feeling like I wouldn't hear anything; also wondering who my competition was from my class. I soon get a call to interview this past week. Feel like things went great, except one major foot in my mouth moment. When it came to answering what my expected pay would be I just remembered someone saying that if its less than (blank) amount hourly that we should look into other offices. They pause and look at each other and have a small discussion. My eyes get big and immediately say "I'll take whatever you choose to pay me since I'm not experienced". Now I walk out from what still seemed like a great interview. So I am just filled with the thought that I said too much and failed horribly. 2 days later I get a call back saying I got the job! I just about jump out of my shoes and screamed in the isle, I was working of course. The only thing is I will train during externship which is about 8 weeks, unpaid. I will be out on payroll right after, this is because I haven't taken the certification test yet. So I have a job right out of school, amazing!!
Now on the poopy end, mainly having to work in Federal Way for the last 4 days and not having any gas to actually be doing this. I got more hours but it was not worth the drive.
