Just this summer I picked up a part-time job with Uber. I loved the idea of being my own boss and creating my own hours. It is perfect for me as a college student, but it also has many unforeseen benefits. In the two months I have been driving, I have met countless people in college, fresh out of college, and even accomplished in business. The knowledge they bestow upon me is worth a pretty penny in the real world. Every weekend, I meet someone new who exposes me to a whole new train of thought. I would recommend this job to anyone like me, in college, and trying to make ends meet yet still maintain good marks in class. More than occasionally, I deal with drunks or someone in a bad mood. This doesn't bother me because you will eventually cross paths with an individual who has been where you are and they will offer you great advice, possibly even a job. It is all about networking and a part-time job should keep you in a position to branch out and network. Meeting new people opens new doors for possibilities to occur in your life. The part I love about it is spreading positivity and making people laugh, anybody I know will tell you that about me. All of us have something special to offer and if you are looking for a job to handle while in college, Uber might be something to consider. Meeting a network of professionals is important for us in college and preparing to join the work force. Building a rapport with people is crucial in society. If you are a good person and made that good first impression, these people that I am giving rides to will ask for my business card. Most of them follow my writing, now, because of how we met and the conversation we had. Establish your foundation, create your network and make your dreams come true. Visualize that future you want to achieve and speak it into existence. Remain optimistic about everything and look at everything as an experience to learn a valuable life lesson. I know, being in college, it is hard to balance work and academics, not to mention a social life. It is hard to outline your life down to a calculated routine and execute on it day after day but putting the effort in is half the battle. The "try" is what separates our voices from the silence. Spread the good word.
