Narrative- First Job Anxiety Thump-thump, thump-thump, thump-thump. My heart began to race as I climbed in my truck early Monday morning. Anticipation grew inside of me at the thought of starting my new job. Would it be difficult? Would I get frustrated? I kept asking myself these questions, but I didn't want to know the answers. All the confidence that I had built up before that day had diminished and I was left with dread. I tried to reassure myself that it was just a summer job and that I
Once a year ago, I applied for my first job at South Texas College. I wanted to help my parents pay bills, and acquire job experiences. At first it was difficult because I was not aware of jobs, so as I applied I had self-doubt about getting hired. After all many jobs required experience, communication skills, and most commonly in the Rio Grande Valley Spanish. I did not have these important skills on what an employee is looking for. Secondly, I felt as though I did not try hard enough on the application

Do you remember your first job? Sometimes it’s an awesome experience and other times it’s an experience one would prefer to forget. I had multiple random jobs throughout my teenage years, but it wasn’t until working as a medical assistant at a local clinic did I considered myself having a “real” job. Coming in on the first day opened minded and thankful for the opportunity for this job, feelings of excitement and nervousness came over me. This job was intended to provide work experience, new skills
The First Day On June 1, 2003 my thinking on life, changed a little bit. It happened to be a Sunday that I didn’t think I would be going to bed at 2:30 P.M. in order to go to work. I got under the cover of my bed and I was out like a light. Once I got into a very deep sleep it was hard to get out of it. I heard my alarm go off, and I didn’t want to get up, but I got up and started to get dressed. I went out in the kitchen and got something to eat and then packed my lunch for the night. On the way

around my age that are 14-18 get jobs like Chic-fil-a , Dunkin donuts , or either Starbucks. When I become 14 next year I will like to work next summer at Chic-fil-a , because a lot of people go there everyday except on Sunday’s. Otherwise , parents will like their kids to have jobs at such a young age so they can see the responsibilities of saving money and to spend wisely. However , getting a job during the summer is a good idea for me to earn money. My first job was when I was in Houston working
Violence in Living Jim Crow, Incident, and Blood burning moon Violence seems to be quite a common topic in black American literature of the first decades of the 20th century. One major reason for this is probably that it was important for black authors not to be quiet about the injustices being done to them. The violence described in the texts is not only of the physical kind, but also psychological: the constant harassment and terrorising. The ever-present violence had such an effect on the
Disabilities Awareness Program As the first student editor of this Disabilities Awareness newsletter for high school students, I was initially wary of the task. I had virtually no contact with anyone who faced a disability. I believe the fact that I was not familiar with the subject made me more curious about whom I would meet and what stories I would encounter. As editor, I presided over a group of students who helped develop and write this first edition. We have all learned a great deal from
want our first job when were in high school and to some of us it makes us feel more independent. Who wouldn’t want to stop relying on their parents for money? We all hate that moment when we want to go out with our friends but were too scared to ask our parents for money because you asked them for money couple days ago. But then again, were scared to apply for a job because some of us are scared for the interview we might get or you’re just scared to get a job. Although getting your first job can be
My first job shadow was on an accountant from the Greenwalt accountant firm in Mechanicsburg. It was an interesting first experience to the career world outside of the education world which I have been familiar with for many years now. Becoming an accountant was something that was intriguing to me as a young 9th grader because I knew it dealt with math and that many accountants have high salaries. I have always had a passion for mathematics and through my highschool years have challenged myself with

Young-Professionals-black-and-white Getting accepted for your first job is one of the first achievements you will attain right after you graduated from college. This will get you excited and eager to work harder each day especially when you first hear that you’ll be getting your first pay check! They say, earning money is a lot harder than spending it. We spend days and even a month to save up for a certain stuff but only managed to hold onto that big amount for a short time until we bid goodbye
means of life, it is what keeps society running across the globe . Perspectively speaking work is the sole defender of anarchy. Our lives are based off the ideology of go to school, get a job, and work hard. That sentence alone has been embedded in our brains since most could remember. In the Memoir “first job” , Iliana Roman feels that hard work, and good ethics must be embedded in our youth. If neglected to do so, it can lead to a non functional society. She of all people knows this to be true
as I could remember, I was always in a rush to grow up and be responsible. I was about thirteen when I realized I wanted a job, so I could have my own money. I’d even fill out applications online, lying about my age but it never worked. A few birthdays went by and I was celebrating my sixteenth birthday and a few weeks later; I received my first retail job. My very first job was at a popular teen store called Aeropostale. I learned and experienced a lot working there and made friends as well. Although
18 Tips for Finding Your First Job in Social Care Just like many other professions, newly qualified workers have been experiencing a rise in demand over the past few years.

After high school, my first job was working as an electrician. Being very young and new to the working world I learned a lot very quickly. I was a teenager on job sites with grown men with many skills that I was able to learn from. Math is critical in the electrical industry by being able to ensure you do not overload a circuit, calculate the amperage and wattage, and how to get the correct bends on wiring conduct. Learning to read blueprints that had all of the details were critical as well. Being
I got my first job working at Panera Bread on South Beach as a cashier at the age of seventeen. It wasn’t until I transferred to the North Miami Café where I began to feel what it was like to work and have a job. I will never forget the words of my co-worker, Dan, when my manager mentioned that I was transferring to another café. “Oh, yea you’re going to have a rude awakening over there.” At first, I brushed off his comment, but as I began to go in depth about what he said, I began to realize what
