St. John's College - On Campus Employment - Santa Fe Campus

Circulation Desk Assistant

June - August 2019 • Santa Fe, NM

What I liked

I enjoyed working with the people I worked with; they were always friendly and kind and good to speak to. I enjoyed that the work offered enough options that I could switch between tasks, and I enjoyed the fact that all those jobs involved physically touching and handling things.

What I wish was different

I wish I had worked more in the back out of the public eye rather than having to often confront strangers who would approach and ask for help one way or another. I wish I had had more breaks to decompress throughout the day rather than feeling like I had to always be on task.

Advice

Just because you do something for 2 hours every day doesn't mean you want to do it for 8 hours a day -- that amount of time really does make or break whether it's something you'd like to do, or which aspects you like and which you simply tolerate and which absolutely drive you mad.
