Can you smell that? It’s the scent of Labor Day looming in the distance. Or maybe it’s the odor of hot dogs burning on the grill because you forgot to check on them. Either way, today’s the first of a very long week for many workers who can think of nothing but a 3-day weekend.
Well, one day down; four to go, kids. In the meantime, here’s some reading material:
- Internships are about more than just getting coffee for the VP.
Texas students find that Washington internships can open doors for jobs in future - Are you to your company as Milton is to Office Space?
How to be more social in the workplace - This is one of those surveys that’s surprising…but not, if you know what I mean.
Nobody Wants to Lead the Corporate Dance…
About Anthony Balderrama
Anthony Balderrama writes about hiring trends, workplace issues and job search tactics for CareerBuilder.com and its blog The Work Buzz. He was born and raised in Dallas (115° degrees isn’t hot!) before moving to Chicago (-23° isn’t cold!). He studied creative writing, therefore everything he writes is usually cut in half once he realizes he spent 400 words just on the intro. He knows that looking for a job and dealing with co-workers are not always fun activities, and reading about them is even less thrilling. That’s why he’ll take any opportunity he can to mention his favorite TV show or band in an article. Basically Anthony’s doing whatever he can to avoid hate mail.Stay Connected
