29 y/o intern

I thought I was too old to intern (college degree, experience, good resume, etc) but a friend connected me with a company to interview for a 3month paid internship. worked a part-time job while interning. got hired full-time immediately after the internship. tbh I don't have the biggest ego, but this was one of those 'take a step back & take two steps forward' kind of moments. very grateful and lucky. hope this encourages you!

NEPOTISM I THINK?

Been applying for entry level work (with several years of relevant experience) since January and genuinely the only people I know who got these jobs had some connection through family or friends.

I work at a magazine - hit up every single person you can think of

I got my job by like idk sending out I think 500+ applications but also in the end I messaged every single person I could think of who might know someone or know someone who knows someone to just even get a tiny toe in the door and I think that helped Like literally I had a friend who I thought knew someone who used to be at x magazine. I texted the friend and asked about it and if it seem d okay I’d ask them to put me in touch or some shit Before that I got my job literally on Craigslist it seemed weird but I was sooooo desperate for a job and it ended up being legit tech job w health benefits and good pay So 🤷‍♀️

ORGANISING GIRLS' TRIPS IN MALE DOMINATED FIELDS

As y'all might know, I'm a climber. Which is fun, cute, sexy and I recommend everyone to become one. Only downside is that it's def a male dominated sport. There's plenty of girls who climb, but a large majority (in our gym) is male. Meaning that the likelihood of going on an outdoor climbing trip without men.. is small. Unless, of course, you organise a girls-only climbing trip. I would highly recommend doing so. Men r great but it's also nice to only be surrounded by girls who know what's it like to climb when you have a menstrual cycle and don't have a natural knack for dynamic power. Made me feel supported, seen and connected.

Calling with a friend til 4 am

Feels like the adult alternative to sleepovers as a kid. Telling eachother your deepest secrets and scariest truths while laying in the dark. Seeing the hours on your clock pass steadily, knowing it'll be a bitch to wake up in the morning but thinking that it's worth it.
