At last, my first summer job not involving family, pay that's under the table or lower than the state minimum wage, or volunteering. Where, you might ask? McDonald's, I gleefully...
Gleefully? Maybe not, but gladly. Gladly because getting the job, any job of the kind really, reflects a stronger initiative in job hunting than I've had than in any previous summer.
This afternoon was orientation day, and when not being processed by the hiring manager I watched and interacted with segments of a goofy animated instruction program. Three days from next Monday , the training wheels come off and I start earning money. I think I'll do alright by them, as long as I'm careful not to partake of their food too often. :)
