My hands trembled on the first part of my job application. The online checklist asked for everything: my education, my volunteer experience, my leadership roles, and any previous job positions. But it also required two recommendations and a recent report card. There is so much for a job application, I thought to myself. And so, I scrambled to fill out and submit all of the required documents. When I thought the worst was over, I immediately received an email to sign up for an interview time slot. I nervously prepped myself with common interview questions, but my mind blanked as I started the interview. Tallwood teaches students how to manage their time and be book-smart. But, in today’s society, we have memes about fearing job applications. We fear getting jobs so much that the memes have a “job” as a no-no topic to discuss.
Once you’re graduated from Tallwood, your parents will ask, “Why do you not have a job?” Of course, you would hesitate and refuse to admit not knowing how to fill out a job application. But what if Tallwood taught you how to fill out a job application before you graduated? Then, you would have your own source of money and avoid the question of shame. Even before you graduate, getting a job is fuego (fire). Imagine being hungry after school and not having a car or money, so you’re limited to the local McDonald’s a couple of blocks down. No one really wants to walk there just to buy food. If Tallwood helps students apply to jobs with a job application workshop, then they will have more freedom to get litty.
To add on, everybody wants godsend help from the universe if they get a job. No one wants their sixteen or seventeen dollars per hour to do all the work for them. You can receive special job perks when you apply to certain jobs. Maybe, you could get the chance to enroll in exclusive credit unions. With exclusive credit unions, they can provide employees with savings accounts of solid annual percentage rates (APR) unlike a chalant savings account of less than one percent APR. Each job provides different money benefits. For example, Chick-fil-A offers multiple scholarships that employees can use for their college tuition. Additionally, if you work at bussing food places, you can, sometimes, make food for yourself after your shift. Securing the bag and using “girl math” is reaching the peak flow state. If students don’t know how to fill out a job application, students can miss out on benefits such as scholarships and exclusive credit unions. So, if Tallwood teaches students how to do a job application, students learn a 200-IQ strat by understanding the pros of different jobs.
Some students may say Tallwood teaching us how to do a job application is not skibidi because students should focus on having a 200-IQ brain, but they don’t account for needing real experience like parkouring in a roblox obby but IRL. Having a work experience of nine or eleven months at McDonald’s shows a person’s initiative with people skills or skill-skills (not bum-bum skills). Even if the job experience is not clocking with the student’s future career, the nerdy side of a student may not advocate for the student’s skill-skills (hands-on skills). Tallwood should change course and switch from teaching with book-smart knowledge to street-smart knowledge. Setting up students with the rizz to have an early start on their financial career sets them up for success later in life by helping them gain infinite aura.
Tallwood should teach students how to submit job applications. It would make students’ portfolios more litty and provide resources for students to start their dope money-earning time ASAP. More students can actually start applying for jobs! Considering the short-term and long-term pros of jobs, students will no longer think of jobs as banned topics. Students will become fuego and prove that as a generation we are not just lazy iPad kids.
