5I Job Hunting Downtown


My roommate has been trying to head to downtown to go job hunting. So this past Tuesday we made that happen! I just went along for the ride so she did not have to go by herself. He headed towards Morrill Hall 10 minutes before 7 to catch the 7pm shuttle headed to Union Station. We asked the driver he could drop us off downtown considering he was driving through it in order to get to the train station. So we were off! Finally arriving in downtown we were dropped off and the job hunting started! We stopped at a pizza place, then made our way passing Yale University to other restaurants and Starbucks. We made sure we stopped at every local restaurant or place possible because she is dying to get a job.

After a couple of hours of walking up and down New Haven we finally figured it was time to go back to our dorm because most of the places you had to apply online so it no use to try and hit any other place. So now we were thinking how are we getting back home? We figured we would take the public transportation to get back. So we asked around to see what bus would take us back to school and we found out it was bus B. We were pointed towards our stop and got there on time! 


The bus had just pulled up and people were getting on. Lucky me I had forgotten my bus pass back in the room so we had to search for change because I only had a dollar. And it's a $1.35 to get on the bus. We asked around and this intoxicated man, but very generous had 30 cents to lend me and he said just ask the bus driver if it was okay that I was 5 cents short. Thank god the bus driver was so kind and let on the bus! We finally were on our way home around 9pm. 

Since we were basically the last stop we sat and talked until we arrived at SCSU. It was definitely successful trip downtown and will be making more trips to do a little shopping for myself for sure!
