11 Struggles Of Job Hunting, As Told By Monica Geller

Job searching is a stressful time in anyone's life, especially when you've been unemployed for what feels like forever.

And especially when you're about to start school without a job. How are you going to pay for unnecessary Target trips and your morning Dutch Bros?! Well, no one can relate better than Monica Geller.

After all, there was almost an entire season of Friends where she was broke as a joke.

1. When you start applying for jobs and your optimism is at an all time high.

You hate that you have to go through this process, but you know you'll come out the other side with some type of income.

2. When your absolute last choice for employment calls you first.

I mean, you'll take it if no one else calls you. But...really?

3. But then, your number one choice calls you!

YEAAAAAAAAAA NAILED IT!

4. They ask you to come in for an interview, and you have a hard time keeping yourself together on the phone.

In your mind, you already have the job.

5. You bring your focus in and go nail the interview.

Literally, the only thing you're focused on is how much happier you will be once you're making money again.

6. Then you wait...and wait...and wait...

Come on, I needed this job like, yesterday. I can't wait another week for this!

7. And get a rejection call.

No. It's fine. I'm not mad...okay I'm a little mad.

8. Your friends try to make you feel better...

...but you really don't need their pity. You need a JOB.

9. And you're upset for about a day or so, so you try to distract yourself.

This is fine, I'm fine.

10. And go into denial about why they didn't want you.

I could have been such a good employee there!

11. But after a day or so, you suck it up and take that first job offer.

You gotta make some money, and it won't be your forever job.

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

Sorority

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.
