The Joys of Job Hunting

I think we all have experienced the difficulties in finding a job in our lives. Particularly when you only have a high school education under your belt and a resume full of relocations like myself. So I'd like to give my personal thanks to all the people who have gone out on a limb over the number of years that I have been working to refer me to their own employers. For putting their trust in me, when it could potentially risk their reputation in the company. (Thankfully, no reputations have been tarnished due to my referrals). And of course, for helping me along my ultimate goal of becoming a professional dancer, as every job I've ever had has been to pay for some sort of dance experience.

So my sincere gratitude goes out to: my father (Jim), my uncle (Rick), and my dearest friends Alyssa, Miranda, Kayla, and Mo.

A special thanks is required to Stephanie, who not only gave me my first job helping her teach dance, but has been my reference for the past 5 years, and has recently referred me to a wonderful job where I've met so many amazing people. The kindness in her heart is insurmountable.
