You bought those crocodile tears? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. That person is daddy and grandpa plus the generations before that that provided her privilege and opportunity. You think Hoda or anyone would dare say no to a child of a Bush? Jenna could literally walk up to me on the street and say hand Me the keys to your car and you pay the insurance and loan and I would literally have to say yes Ma'am.

Such a sweet story! My “one” was the father of two children that I babysat. I started sitting for his kids when I was 15. He was on the board of directors of a locally owned bank. When I was 18 he arranged an interview for me. 39 years later I’m still in banking! Thank you Mr. Jones!

Glancing at the comments, I see mine will not be very popular. Jenna’s last name and the fact that she has both a father and grandfather who were presidents surely helped her along the way. It’s called name recognition folks. Doesn’t mean she’s not talented, talented and famous. Millions are talented and not well connected and I am grateful when they get a chance to shine.

357 rejections are too many. There are many good companies looking for volunteers. Find the jobs that related to what you want to do and sign up for volunteer. Volunteer is another way to show your talent, your skills, your knowledge, your work-ethic, ect... If you don't ear money, you should earn experiences. Don't wasted too much time for rejections. For example: Volunteer for ABC for 6 mo. Then, volunteer for CBS for 6 mo. Then, volunteer for NBC for 6 mo. Good companies and good experiences will help your resume.
