My Summer Job

I posted a month or so ago about getting a summer job. The irony is, I can't write about the actual work I do except to say I work for the provincial government ('province' is the Canadian word for 'state') and adjudicate claims.

What I can write about is how challenging the work is and how much I am enjoying it. There is so much to learn: how to weigh evidence, when to ask for more evidence, how to write a legal decision, etc. I am so privileged and lucky to be learning these things as a student. I also really like my co-workers, mentors and supervisors and can see why working for the government is so awesome. Yay for summer jobs!
