Only having one year left is not only exciting but terrifying. The thought of never having to go to class again might be one of the greatest thoughts ever.
I have had a “big girl” job for over a year so I know what the working world is like. Working for the US Federal Government has taught me many things about not only the working world but the government as well.
I work Tuesday, Thursday and Friday 8-4:30 every week. Only going to school two days a week has its upsides. I would much rather work than go to class for many reasons.
1. I get paid. That is one of the best things about working is the money. I like knowing that I am getting money for doing something I love whether it is sitting in court, watching interviews, working with other agencies such as DEA, ATF, FBI, ICE, CIA, or just doing the discovery paper work for the major cases.
2. I love what I do. I honestly do love my job. It is so exciting and rewarding to work beside the US Attorney and all the agencies that protect this country and represent our government.
3. I like the working world much more than the school world. I don’t have to waste my time doing work that I will never actually use in the real world. Everything I do has a purpose.
4. The benefits. I get paid vacation days and sick days. Plus healthcare, dentistry, and other various benefits. These are something most 21 year olds have never even heard of.
I know I have the rest of my life to work but honestly if this is what I have to look forward to the rest of my life, bring it on!
