I just finished my first week and it was a blast! Every one
of these guys in this office is great to work with and most importantly, no one
seems like they are out to undercut their colleagues. The entire team took time
throughout out the day to reach out and introduce themselves and offer
assistant. I introduced myself the best I could and shared why I came to D.C.
and what I wanted to accomplish and all the staff members began paving a way
for me to accomplish my goals. I was real worried coming in that there would be
egocentric people that cared nothing about anything except for their own career
goals. I am lucky that this is not the case in Rayburn office 2349.
My supervisor is Jenell Biggs from Gilbert Arizona. This is
Jenell’s first full time job working for a government official but she is no
stranger to the political arena as her dad is currently the President of the
Arizona Senate. Jenell is one of the individuals who you admire from the
beginning. She is steadfast in her principles and unwavering in her standards.
I have full confidence that we will get a long great.
After a couple of days learning the complicated layout of
the chain of Capitol buildings, the office began sending me on frequent
assignments and when I say frequent, I mean like four to five errands a day. I
enjoy running these errands because it gives me a chance to get out of the
office and see the beautiful Capitol building. I’m sure I will get tired
throughout the next 11 weeks but I honestly do not see myself getting burned
out by running all over the place because I have little time to tour on the
weekdays so this is my chance. Plus, I have a badge that clears me to go back
stage.
