<p>*I've held the same job for 2.5 years now (20 hours a week), and I help support my family in this way; boss loves me and offers to write me a recommendation every time we speak. It would be a fantastic rec too because I am a model employee and am often used to train the newcomers.
*Recommendations should be very good, my GC has known me for about 11 years and my teachers like me rather well...
*I've started my essay about my recent experience with the peculiar economies in Eastern Europe and I'm tying that in with my fascination with globalization as well as why I would make a good economist. Good?</p>
