I got the job!
So, on a whim I applied to work at the National Zoo for the summer. I need an interim job but I’ve never worked at a zoo and this place is super competitive so I didn’t think anything would come of it (not to mention a question during the interview was “What’s your favorite animal?” and I couldn’t think of a single animal and at the last second blurted out giraffe with my reasoning being, “they’re awkward and lanky”) but… I got it!
I’m sooooo excited.
