The Job/Internship Update

Wow. This last week and a half has been crazy regarding the job front. Let's be honest. I'm now really excited for the opportunities that have presented themselves and will be staying in America as long as I can.

First, I no longer work with ABC 4 News. I know, sad day. While I enjoyed my time with this team of people, I got an offer to join The Sutherland Institute (a conservative political think tank) as a psuedo-reporter. So, I'm excited about that.

However, between receiving a phone call from Sutherland and going in to meet with them, I had interviews with places for full-time work starting after I graduate. Needless to say, I ended up accepting a job offer with FranklinCovey's Speed of Trust Practice out in Alpine! Is that amazing?

For sure that is amazing, but, that means that I can no longer dedicate as much time to Sutherland and signed papers etc. with FranklinCovey last Friday. So, it's official. I will be working with FranklinCovey part-time until I graduate, and will then transition into full-time work in May! Wahoo!

Way to go, Adam! You will be perfect for that position. Concerning trust, Booker T. Washington once said, "Few things help an individual more than to place responsibilty upon him, and to let him know that you trust him."
I watched a documentary from Frito-Lay when they used The Speed of Trust Program. Sounds like a great program and a great opportunity for you.
