Excuse Me, I'm In Industry
This past summer has been a very unique and beneficial experience. I have gained a real insight into the guidance counselor career path, as these are the types of children who I would interact with most of the time. The camp itself, as well as the three weeks of training, feed into this. Aside from the specific, working and also make friends with a group of people I had never met is a crucial ability to be honed at this point in our lives. In addition to this, all of us have improved in our teamwork and our cohesiveness with others. We support our coworkers and know how to ask for support when we need it. We have all improved in our ability to create an effective schedule and implementing it. More importantly, we have learned that thinking a schedule is going to work is a joke, and being flexible is huge. We all have seen how annoying it is when people who arent flexible complain all the time (lil'J). We have learned that you can't do a job like this half-heartedly, because it only makes things harder for everyone around you. We have learned that when the using someone elses things, always imagine that the person is a psycho who is intent on keeping everything in pristine condition, even though their possessions are being used by glue-happy impulsive 10-year-olds. And the only way to get glue off of a table is with a razor blade.
