Inadequate. I’m at a new job (my first big-girl-job) and I usually feel like I’m an elephant in a tank top (a.k.a. awkward). I've only been at this job for about a month and a half and I struggle everyday with confidence issues and writer’s block (which is a problem because I’m the communications and research associate). I wish they would have taught me what having a job is really like while I was in college. Maybe something called “Simulation of a 9 to 5 Job” or “Stay in School As Long As Possible or Suffer the Consequences.” Which begs the question: What class do you wish was taught at your school/college? (Silly answers are much appreciated but serious answers are equally valued).
You actually already learned this at college :) Think waaaaaay back to your first couple of weeks on campus. But, I agree with you about the 9 to 5 class -- great idea!
ReplyDeletethe class that offers things like "what to do when a license plate goes missing" or "how to get office coffee out of white shirts" or "how to not be late from your lunch break" or "how to call in sick when you're not really sick" ...you know things of that nature.
ReplyDeleteP.s. I would be depressed if you weren't here!
