Jeb Update 11-22

Hi everyone. I’m not sure if anyone still comes to the site but I figured I’d get on and give an update.

Mike and I have been actively seeking jobs in NYC. I have applied at McKinsey and Company along with some other consulting firms. I know New York wasn’t our top city or our favorite region but after the trip ended we realized a few things.

First, I love the seasons. There is nothing better than fall. Also, NY has a romantic quality to in the winter.

Second, NYC is the place where the jobs are at. Recently, the financial sector has been hurting big time. I figured I have better odds to score an interview there than anywhere else.

Third, it’s close to home. NY is only 6 hours away from Johnstown. Moving there wouldn’t be too much of a hassle and visits home are only a short train ride away. Also, it would be nearly impossible to interview at places like Austin and California and get a job by graduation.

Thanks to all of you that have been to our site and read what we had to write. The hit count was one of the only things that motivated us to continue to write on the road. Who knows... Maybe there will be a new blog to come. “The Map of US: New York City”

AHHH!! bring Johnny the deceased van back for Fred to clean the stains out of, (HA HA HA).He likes to clean up ONLY if its name is Johnny,so I hear maybe you could blow the old horn when you get into Johnstown. Have a good one , those old horns can have a rank smell to them have Freddie clean it up for you before you blow it.(HAHAHAHAHA)THE TRAIN I MEAN.
