Where are you working this summer? And how are you liking it?
Can’t get away
The Argonaut newsroom is definitely a little quieter during the summer, but it’s still a great way to gain more experience and bask in the air conditioning to survive the sometimes awful warmer Moscow weather.

Back home
Took a change of pace and accepted a position as a communications intern for Idaho National Laboratory. It’s nice living with my family, being home and staying here for free. Plus it’s super cool to be the fourth generation Pfannenstiel to work at the lab!

The NoCo lifestyle
I’ve always wanted to check out Colorado, so an internship in a Northern Colorado newsroom was the perfect opportunity. Great people, great food and endless great views.

Money, money, money
I decided to go back home to Nampa this summer and work for my brother’s company installing hardwood flooring. I needed the money for school, so I applied to Young Gun Flooring, a sub contractor to TUF flooring. Although it is exhausting, I can’t complain whenever I get to deposit a big paycheck after a long week.

Working and visiting family
I decided to take a job working for a family friend at their restaurant in Columbus, Mississippi. This summer has given me the opportunity to visit family and friends that I haven’t seen in a long time. I’m definitely not used to the heat and humidity, but I’ve never been to the south before. I even got the chance to go to Atlanta and tour the CNN headquarters.

Camp counselor
Working as a camp counselor in McCall. This summer I’m working as the art instructor at the same Girl Scout camp I went to as a kid. While being woken up at 3 a.m. because of a spider isn’t ideal, every day I make a difference in these girls’ lives.
