So, working at Target fucking sucks and everyday my hopes of doing something meaningful die a little. I can't find a job at a school, or even at a better store. My phonecalls and emails to potential employers go unanswered. I'm starting to accept that fact that I work at Target and consider what it would be like to move up in the ranks, wich is fucking terrifying. I KNOW I can do better, so why aren't I?
I saw a listing for Americorps YouthServe program, which puts people in different situations working with at-risk youth in Franklin County. The thing is, you don't make any significant income doing this, but you do get FREE health care and cool training and money to pay off student loans. I figure, since I can't find a real job, if I'm going to be barely scraping by I might as well be doing something that matters. The job is here. I need to give them thre qualities that would make me an effective member, as well as a history of my exprience working with youth. I'm going to apply tomorrow. What three qualities should I use?
