Make it stand out.

Life lessons your learn from dating a president at Bank Of America with the last name of “Mukherjee”. “Morally, you did the right thing by calling an ambulance for your grandmother. Also, I think it’s ok to say things like “I’m sorry to be insensitive, but I really can not “just drop everything right now” to “plan my father’s funeral” while also “looking over contracts, working with clients, and sending out your resume.” Also learned from him: “You did the right thing by making that phone call, but unfortunately, it won’t matter to [most] hiring managers. So even if you “getting in the foot in your door to the Fortune 500” looks like “even if it’s just a starting a 6 month contract for a shipping company or agriculture company, there’s nothing wrong with that.” We also watched the Britney Spears documentary about “what really went down in her life financially” and he looked pretty shocked. We also just started to get in rooms together where “people are starting to invest and apply to jobs very seriously.” We also had some “corporate moral gray areas”conversations about things like how “he knows an “anon”, high up at “anon” corporate role…and they were being such an adult in the room in terms of their career and education…and they really did not do anything morally wrong…but they were not present as a witness when a relative passed away of natural causes…and it gets left at that. Life does not really offer black and white answers. The best thing that someone can do if they want to really change their life for the better is “to just get in the ring for roles within the Fortune 500, the $1000+ web development contracts, speaking with developers and startup teams at Y Combinator, looking at stock options, and looking at Grad School.” You can never go wrong by focusing on your career, professional skillset, your professional network, and furthering

your education.

Also he wrote on my LinkedIn that “he thought I was one of the most professional individuals he has ever seen in this industry.” So the story is “a little bitter sweet”, but that is “sometimes what the realistic version of meeting a sunshine in a room person looks like.” Also, he told me “you’re way too good for dead end retail, gig work, or factory work jobs in the long run.”
