Yesterday I accepted a job at TECO as a Co-op. The pay is pretty good(16.50 an hour) and it will be a forty hour a week job. I guess the only thing that differentiates it from a real job is that they are only required to keep me for 4 months and I do not get any benifits

Awesome congrats. The Co-op will be really valuable because the work experience can only add to your value. :) Siemens has a couple of power offices in Florida, you never know :)

that sounds awesome! congrats. you never know what may come of this - my internship (that sounds a lot like what you're doing) started in may and they offered me a full time position with benefits and all that fun stuff to start sept. 1.

where is your building located? are you living at home for a while?

It is over past tampa over by where 4 and 75 merge. It is probably like 45 minutes away from my house with no traffic, so I will probably have to leave at least an hour before I work(They still have not told me when that is yet). I will be at home at least until december, if they offer me a full time job there I will get my own apartment a little closer though :).

nice! yeah, i'm in a weird situation too where i'm trying to find a roommate/place to live close to work. i was thinking of moving out around january so i get a few months of salary and all under my belt to work with (and i know NO ONE right now who will be looking to move to the south tampa area needing a roommate, so i'm scared i'm going to get stuck with some weirdo). good luck with everything... we should keep in touch and hang out though since we'll both be in tampa indefinitely! :)
