It isn't cute!
One of my biggest pet peeves is becoming when I tell people that I work at the Girl Scouts and get the reply- that is sooo cute! Yup, I deal with statistics regularly and need to calculate market share and retention... wicked cute! Yes I know I sound bitter but I don't get it. I became an executive before I was 27, what do you do? Oh you're a receptionist, how adorable!
I have been at the Girl Scouts for a little over and year now and I love it! One of my favorite aspects of the job is community collaborating, it can be challenging but there is so much potential there. I started a middle school program that is all about self awareness and self esteem in West Warwick (a very poor city) and have had 35 girls join since October...that is typically unheard of at that age becasue Girl Scouts is perceived as just crafts and cookies a lot of the time and uncool in middle school.
I love working for a national organization that empowers girls,(whether taken seriously or not) at this point I would not want to do anything else!
