You guys can call me childish or not. I get it I am a 22 year old that has to figure everything out for themselves. I am not here to vent but to add my perspective how the hierachy will work with you or work against you in this "religion". I am all for using any opportunity to your advantage..who wouldn't. Which leads to an experience of mine. For a awhile i am in good standing with the sisters and during my time in college i would go and ask for any advice about medical school and any study tips. However as i am nearing my end.. I started to ask if they will be willing to recommend for any role. Now in this economy it is required to ask for a recomendation in order to get hired in any job. Of course.. they don't owe me anything. If they simply deny.. I am okay with it. However the problem I see is that I met a sister that is starting her nursing pre-requisite classes soon at a college. And I find out through a friend that the same individual that denied me.. decided to offer her an intership at the hospital, for the her to get the feel for it. While I am glad for the sister for this opportunity. I cannot deny their is a certain level of classism and privilage of opportunities that are given to those who are more....into it. Trust me when i tell you I haven't done anything wrong. All i do is go to college, take care of my parents..work my a$s off. And I stay out of trouble. Including the fact the gurl that might recieve the intership..has told me in person.. that I was the one to encourage her to go to college. Imagine.. I felt so honored for her to look up to me. Like a sister. I am happy for her. But heartbroken. But curious how this is a hierarhcy type of situation I see everyday. As those who are most in favor get more opportunities and those who fall short get snubbed and ignored. I am not gonna let this affect me.. on contrary it has made me more eagar to work harder. I promise you I will get a reccomendation from someone who truly sees my talent as a person. I invite you to add your similar experience here. Since discussing brings a lot curiosity into this topic.
