flower delivery

I finally got around to calling someone about using up my federal work study hours this summer. I had looked through all of the lists and searched all of the various college department listings for jobs. I had called a bunch of people right after I found out about the award and ever single on I called had already been taken by then. So I gave up for a little bit to finished out the rest of the semester and get all of my other school issues in order. When I went back this week to look at all of the lists they were much smaller. What went from a ten minute look through one or two lists came to be a five minute look at all the jobs available. So I looked down the list for something that seemed moderately interesting. The one I found that looked interesting, which I got accepted for, is within the college of agriculture. I have always been really interested in farming and gardening so I just saw this as another opportunity to learn more for future use when I am growing things for myself. I called the professor to see what the job actually was because it was pretty vague in the description. Even though I didn't know what the job was it looked more interesting than all of the other listings for basically just paper pushers in campus offices. The professor basically gave me the run down and said that I would be the main assistant to the green house technicians and the summer students. I will be cleaning up the green houses and making sure everything is stocked all the time so the summer session flow continues all right. I will also be helping do flower delivery work across campus. The horticulture department grows all of the decorative flowers for all of campus. Every week or so I will do a flower delivery for the landscape architecture kids to use on their next projects. It will be a summer of chilling with plants in the green house and making sure everything behind the scenes goes smoothly for everyone in the area. I think it sounds like it is going to be a lot of fun, or at least really relaxing.
