Name: Lani
Occupation: Recruiter for an international work program
9AM: On the road to UC Fullerton. Rush hour traffic is the WORST!
10AM: Arrive in Fullerton with 30 minutes to spare. Grab a Pumpkin Spice Latte at Starbucks (my favorite!!)
10:30AM: Arrive at UC Fullerton, check in with the main booth, pick up a bottle of water, load up on sunscreen, then find assigned table. Luckily it has and umbrella that I can use for shade.
10:35 AM: Table is completely set up with table cloth, brochures, and a banner. Hopefully there it won't get windy, I forgot to bring rocks to weigh down the brochures.
10:50 AM: I get my first customer. I'm trying to generate interest in a English Teaching program in Japan. It is a program that I participated in a few years ago, so most of the questions are about my experiences and the application process.
11:15 AM: Things start to pick up, I have had about 8 students stop by in the past 25 minutes, asking all sorts of questions.
12 Noon: Lunch! Lunch and parking are provided for me (its included in the cost that my organization has to pay in order to get a booth.) Today, I have a delicious chicken salad sandwich, chocolate chip cookie, chips, and a fruit salad from the Corner Bakery. Not bad! Although, I don't actually get to take a break to eat, I have to hide my lunch box behind a poster and pick at it between chatting with potential applicants.
1:00PM: Sun has shifted. It's getting really hot and hard to find good shade. Seems like the umbrella isn't actually doing its job. Wandering off for a bathroom break and the chance to find some air conditioning. Had the realization that one rarely sees bathroom stall graffiti, unless they are at a bar or a university campus....
2PM: Time to pack up and head home. Must first stop by the main office to drop off the banner and extra brochures.
