Man, summer went by quickly. I missed working full-time tbh, and I really enjoyed working for this agency. But if all goes well once this internship completes, I'll get a noncompetitive hiring offer to come back after I graduate!

Already have an interview for a potential new job this afternoon, can't stop won't stop


also fuck school, not even looking forward to going back

Uh, no. It's non-competitive eligibility for a federal position which means I wouldn't have to reapply into the general application pool. Has nothing to do with expected salary--although the program I'd be hired into gives 5-7% raises every 8 months >__>

No way man. The work day is more structured for me. Working 8am-5pm, go home and you're off the clock. Classes be like, oh 9am-12pm MW and then 2pm-5pm TR and then you gotta go home do homework for another 2-3 hours.

Yeah this is what I was going to say. There's nothing more structured than knowing exactly what you have to do on a daily basis, vs. balancing two essays and three exams and six quizzes and all the other shit that goes on during a typical week at college.

After being out of school for several years, if I ever go back for my Masters, it is going to be bloody hard to get back into the mindset of a student. Hell, even preparing for my Professional Engineer exam is going to be tough as I will have to force myself to go to my local library and study there otherwise I will be distracted with my computer at home.

I was only out of school for two years before going back for these masters. I know it'll be worth it in the long run, but some of these core classes are a dull grind and fuck relearning calculus for one class. Also I miss full-time salaries

Yes, and the expectations are a lot easier. Honestly, I sometimes wish I had gone into one of the sciences so I could effectively stay at uni forever... but unfortunately I grew up and entered the real world.

In case anybody ever wonders where their tax dollars go >_> Meanwhile, in the private sector, raises are like once a year or less, depending on whether it's tied into a performance review and when you get that performance review (and some employers don't even have a formal structure for it, so you have to go in and ask for a raise)

How could you? By the time I retire, there won't be anything left thanks to leftist policies.

99% confident that I got hired after the interview! I applied to two positions and she said I'd be a great fit for either one so I get to choose. :D

I want that "data management & evaluation" title on the resume most definitely
