Getting A Full Time Job, As Told By Parks And Rec
huffington post

1. You finally find that perfect full time job, so you apply...and then you spend about a month and a half waiting for a response


2. After what seems like an eternity, you get the email that they want to give you an interview


3. All week long leading up to the interview, you're giving yourself constant pep talks

4. You nail the interview and they decide the job is yours


5. You walk into training a few weeks later, feeling like you're on top of the world


6. And then about ten minutes later, when they're discussing all these terms you're not familiar with....


7. You make it through the first few weeks and you feel like quitting every day, but then...your first paycheck hits your bank account


8. This is so much more money then you used to make, so you decide it's time to....

9. Finally training is done and you start working full days, eight hour shifts plus commuting

10. A few weeks pass by and you slowly start getting used to the job, but it never makes going in to work any easier

11. The highlight of your week is Friday because that means the glorious weekend is coming


12. But then Sunday comes around, and you know you have to do the whole week all over again

The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
