My Summer Job.

I am a 22 year old college student who has been so blessed with wonderful friends and family that I thank god everyday for what I have been given. I have had the same job since I was 16, granted I moved around a lot and had other job opportunities but my boss has always let me come back and continue working. That has made my life easy and has taught me a really cool trade. I work on grounds crew for the university where I plant flowers, mow grass, build retaining walls, and in the winter shovel snow. When I started writing this blog I had no clue that I was going to write about my experiences on grounds crew but I'm glad I am. I want people to understand that working on campus is such a rewarding experience because the campus knows that school come first! Of course our jobs are important but as a student worker student comes first. I have had the opportunity to work every summer for 6 years and still got the chance to go on two exchanges and two internships in Washington DC.
This blog I guess is to thank my boss Darrin "Bear" Edison for giving me a job as a young girl and letting me come back when I am ready! The things I learned on Grounds will stay with me for the rest of my life and have really made me a independent female!
