18 years post-college, only 2 interviews from 1000 applications. But with supportive friends and family, I chose to invest in myself. Best decision ever. Now, 15 years in top-tier after-school programming. The right guidance can change everything.
@PitTrading101 The old man was my guy. I’d come by after the close and get my slice and pop. He’d always say “there he-a goes”. That’s a 20yr old memory. Wow.
Saturday, the 22nd, I witnessed a brawl at 76th and Halsted while driving my cousin home. 24hrs later I was in the middle of a shootout at the same intersection around 11pm. Luckily we weren’t injured but it was the scariest moment of my life.
Nothing like being a passenger while Pops drives. Got fitted for the custom shirt, grabbed lunch while listening and learning. Best Father in the world.
