I wouldn't call him a master of the dark arts. He was good, but no master.

Being great does not cut it. You must master it.

All you have to do is perfect your control of it. It is entirely possible.

[QUOTE="Toph_Girl250"][QUOTE="lancelot200"]It looks like most of us are unemployed. :P2ndWonder
Which explains why a lot of us here have a lot of free time on our hands and are capable of posting here a lot. :P

I posted here a lot when I did work :P

But you're not working anymore? I think quitting your job made you post less here! :o Usually it seems jobs make people have less time here, but for you it was the opposite, I think you need to get another job! :o

Nope. I live in a village with a mayor.
No, care to elaborate?Toph_Girl250
You think that I remember with all that time pass. It was probably go become a pornstar.

Villages can have Mayors? O_O Hmmm, how can that be? I didn't know this was Animal Crossing: Wild World.

I start working in a week. I'm excited, and nervous about the opportunity. It'll be working in a real company, not the small part time jobs that most people my age get.

Make the most of it! It'd be awesome for the resume, and if you impress your superiors enough for them to write you a testimonial before you go.

Summer job? If you like it there, you should think about go there for a job when you are done... Summer job does wonder in that regard if the boss is pleased with you

If lucky they'll be hiring me after college, not writing a letter for me.

It's a co-op. Pretty much the same thing except it's like a returning internship.

Don't speak too soon because you still aren't sure if the job is a good fit for you or not.

The goal's getting work experience in an engineering job and it's not like I'd stay with them forever.

But if you find out during the internship that the job isn't for you, you aren't going to be joining them even if they offer you a place after you graduate.

Honestly, I probably would since it's a really big company with lots of opportunity. It's a really good starting point to get in the work market.

I don't see a job as being worth it if you don't like the environment and/or your job scope. Work becomes a drag at that point and it's so hellish to go through.

A few years is all that's necessary to get better opportunities.

I'm looking at it positively! I'm hoping that it'll be a good stepping stone and from what I hear they pay for all of your college if they hire you later.

I'm hoping the same, I didn't look for them, they looked for me which is a good start. Then in the job interview I had no idea what I was doing and still managed to get the job, so for some reason they see something in me I'm hoping.

The way it'll work is that I'm working this summer. Then during the fall semester I'll have school like normal, however in the spring semester I'll be working rather than going to class. I'll still be considered a full time student while I'm co-oping that spring semester, however I won't get any credits. Then I'll probably continue working into the summer.
