I spent 6 months working for low pay as an intern, waiting tables, and working as a cashier at a department store before I was offered a job on Capitol Hill in Washington. As you said, above all it's important not to give up! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4781993243545658588.post-91838983739067680442011-02-13T16:30:38.114-08:002011-02-13T16:30:38.114-08:00Great post!

I think that there is a lot of relevance for anyone pursuing their passion, I had some similar experiences trying to break into science writing (although I admit I threw in the towel and returned to grad school after only a year).
