July 6, 20169 yr QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 5, 2016 -> 03:16 PM) Didn't realize Millenials were THIS bad in the workplace? Anybody agree or disagree with this millenial's story? Ouch http://nypost.com/2016/07/04/im-a-millenni...neration-sucks/ It seriously scares me that you're a real person sometimes.

August 1, 20169 yr Had an initial phone interview for a dream-type position today. Follow-up interview next.

Just not a sales guy A week on the job and I already want to gauge my eyes out. I cannot sit for 8 hours a day making phone calls. I have applied for grad school and to be a GA through athletic administration (sports information work). Grad school is free, and I get a paycheck every week including summer. So, I might go get my MBA and practice something that I know I will love doing.

I honestly don't recommend going to get an MBA so quickly, I think getting some work experience first will help immensely for getting a job after getting an MBA as well.
August 4, 20169 yr QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Aug 4, 2016 -> 11:18 AM) Nice, keep us posted! Phone interview is Monday morning. Spending a lot of time preparing for this, but it would absolutely be huge.
August 4, 20169 yr QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Aug 4, 2016 -> 11:27 AM) Similar line of work? Yeah, energy industry still, but Silicon Valley instead of stodgy utility.

Love to get into an athletic department either in high school or college (preferably college). Sports Information Director or Athletic Director is the dream job.
August 8, 20169 yr Yikes...that was a bit different than I expected...did ok, but I suspect not as well as I needed to. Now I wait...
August 13, 20169 yr So the company's recruiter called me yesterday to follow-up on my interview. I was expecting them to schedule an in-person interview, but instead they were just keeping me posted and checking in on my thoughts on how things went. Never really had that happen before.
