Living for the Details

So I started my first legitimate job this summer. Terrifying with a capital T! Sure I've had the odd babysitting and housecleaning job since I turned twelve, but for the first time ever I found myself answering to a supervisor and being responsible for my own actions. Or almost the first time.

You see, as I was organizing invoice receipts, I realized that this was exactly the kind of work I did for Peer Counseling. Sure, Peer Counseling revolved around counting pencils and organizing index cards rather than alphabetizing fire marshal licenses and organizing invoices. However, there is one common link here; all of these activities are dull, monotonous, and time-consuming.


And I love it.
