I woke up this morning as an unemployed member of society. That was nothing out of the ordinary - I haven't had a real job in nearly three years. The crazy thing is, I'm about to go to bed officially hired for not one, but two jobs. Despite much searching, numerous applications, and several interviews at various places since getting home from my mission nearly 9 months ago, I never managed to land a job. With zero income and a rapidly depleting savings account, I've been living on cold cereal and PB&J's, and avoiding nearly everything that costs anything.
Now that I have two jobs, I'll still be living on cold cereal and PB&J's and avoiding nearly everything that costs anything. But at least my bank account wont run out as fast. That will be nice.
The first job I got has a pretty random story to it. Actually the random story is more about how I didn't get hired a month ago when I applied, even though I was told in my interview that they would hire me the next day. But I don't feel like writing that random story at the moment. If you're dying to know what happened, ask me sometime.
The second job I got is awesome. Since I'm apparently not in the mood to write out long explanations right now, I decided to spare myself (and all you loyal readers) a thousand words by including the following picture:
I guess you can call me Professor Powell now. Let me know if you want to add my class!

No way! That is awesome. I don't think I'll be adding the class, it would be extremely embarrassing...but way to go, Professor Powell!
ReplyDeleteWow!! That is so awesome!! I bet you're pretty excited right now. I would totally take the class if I could!
ReplyDeleteOK. What is this world coming to if a mother has to read her son's blog in order to know he's been hired as a teacher? You've known about this for how long and didn't call me? What?! Way to go Sam. I always knew you would amount to something some day. Now, about the money you owe me...
ReplyDeleteOh, I sent you a text but you never responded. Then I did call, remember? You gave me my bank account number so I could set up direct deposit. I also started work today at my other job, by the way. But you probably won't read this again so I guess I'll just have to call you again...
ReplyDeleteCongrats Sam. It is fun being a teacher. I was one for my last year at BYU and loved it.
