Improved Essays

Majority of the jobs available today are looking for part-time to avoid large pay and full-time benefits. For a college student, the right job is even harder to find. Luckily, I have been blessed to maintain two jobs during school and take in each of their experiences successfully.

Because each and every one of us accepted this working environment, starting with management all the way down to our bus boys, during busy and stressful hours at least one of us is always loose and managed to preserve their “fun” attitude that spread to everyone else as fast as an epidemic.

    So, after tiring of being ignored, I applied for a closing position at Chick-fil-A. Previous to working at Chick-fil-A, I had spent my summer attending Harvard University’s Secondary School Program, a seven-week college immersion program where I made lifelong friendships, fell in love with my professors, and experienced true college moments like staying up late talking with my roommate only to wake up again at four in the morning to finish writing a paper for my Intro to Sociology class. While studying at Harvard I also discovered people who have a passion for what they were doing and learning. Christopher Queen, one of the most passionate professors I met while studying…
