To My Future Employer, If You Hire Me, I Will Be The Best I Can Be

Emily Yaritz

1. I can't do things halfheartedly

If you hire me, I am going to give you everything I have. I will be all in and it's as simple and as complicated as that. You will have my whole heart.

2. Others will always come before me

If you hire me, you're not only hiring me the worker but you're also hiring me the person. And me the person has a huge heart that will always want the best for others. There will be times where I have to do what is best for someone else rather than myself.

3. I'm going to love this team more than I can put into words

If you hire me, I am going to fall in love with this team and I am going to love them more than I love myself.

4. I will always be 10-15 minutes early and I will always be willing to stay late

If you hire me, you will understand first hand what sacrifice looks like.

5. I want to be the best

If you hire me, you'll find out quickly that I don't like being average. I want to be the best at everything I do so please tell me when I screw up. Help me become the person I know I can be. I'm nothing if not coachable.

6. I'm willing to make mistakes

If you hire me, know that I understand that you learn by making mistakes. A beautiful thing is never perfect.

7. I'm crazy dedicated

If you hire me, know that I will willingly take risks even if it means falling flat on my face because I promise you I'll be crazy enough to give it another shot. Fall seven stand up eight, right?

8. I respect the process

If you hire me, I understand that great things take time. I will embrace the journey and I will never take a moment for granted.

9. I lead by example

If you hire me, know that I will always set a strong example for your company. I will have the respect of my peers and I will be someone they can look up to and count on.

10. I want this long term

If you hire me, know that I want this until I retire. I wouldn't have applied for the job if I hadn't seen my future here.

11. You will never have to question if you hired the right person

If you hire me, I promise I won't leave any doubt in your mind over whether or not you chose the right person. You will always have the best of me and I can guarantee that that will be more than enough.

Knowing all of this, I hope you realize that I am exactly what you are looking for. But if not, please give the position to someone else who wants this just as bad as I do.

Best wishes,

Emily

8 Things I Realized After My First Semester In College

Actually, Kylie Jenner, 2018 is the year of realizing things.

The first semester of college is famous for being one of the most difficult transitions of one's young adult life. You're thrown into a completely new area where the majority of the people surrounding you are strangers in an academic environment that's much more challenging then what you've grown accustomed to for the past twelve years. On top of that, you probably share a room with another person (or even multiple people) on the lumpiest "mattress" you've ever slept on.

With this change comes a lot of questions: what do I want to major in? What am I passionate about? Is what I'm passionate about something I'm actually good at? Why does the bathroom smell like cranberry juice and vodka? What is that thing at the bottom of the shower drain?

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

University of Dayton

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.
