The Transfer from Wapakoneta

    Here we are in the second week of classes and just when I thought things were getting better, we got another curveball. Just as we started this second week, we got some snow which was nice to finally get to have some snow to enjoy, but made the roads bad to drive on and the sidewalks not fun to walk on. As I was getting stuff from my car Monday morning, I noticed the snow was accumulating to the point wherever I stepped I got my shoes full of snow. This led to the rest of the morning being miserable because I had wet socks. After I was out of class and had a little bit of down time I was able to get changed and kind of have a reset on the day, I was finally able to start enjoying what was left of the day. This allowed me to catch up on homework and get ahead in some classes. The rest of that day started to carry over into the following days as my days began to get better and things became clearer of what I needed to have done and what I was expected to do. This has been another interesting week with the transfer from Wapakoneta. Has anyone else had anything interesting happen to them this past week?

  1. This snow was horrible, I was kinda hoping they would cancel classes even though I knew they wouldn't. I hope your adapting to being a Polar Bear well so far! Don't be afraid to reach out if you need help with anything.

  2. I don't know about anyone else, but I think wet socks is the worst possible feeling in the world! I cannot stand it when they rub against my feet as I walk. It's so hard! Especially because I can't wear my snow boots for more than twenty minutes without excruciating pain! UGH!

 Here we are in another week of school learning about how we can use different social media platforms. This week we are learning about how you can use Instagram to market your business. Instagram is a very popular social media platform that people of all ages use but it is mainly the younger generation. You can use this platform to post stories, reels, and Instagram posts. First, you need to establish your target audience. Next you need to create your account and incorporate what your business is and what you have to offer but then say what you are about. Creating a post on Instagram is pretty simple it all starts by selecting a photo of your business that you think represents what you want to market the best along with what will draw in the most attention from the public. Once you create this post you can repost it on your story, so it gives it more of a chance to be seen by people. Whenever something like a bigger event or something really exciting is going on at the business you...

The Transfer from Wapakoneta

Here we are in another week of school. This week has been kind of crazy as per usual. The week started off on Monday forgetting my bookbag at home causing me to show up late to the lift Monday morning. Later that day I decided to go back home to Wapakoneta to watch my brother play his first baseball game of the year. I got home just in time to ride over to the ballpark with my family but little did I know I forgot my lawn chair.  When I realized I had forgotten my chair it was too late to go home and grab it because I would miss the beginning of the game. Tuesday finally rolled around and let me tell you it was a long one. On Tuesday I had a job introduction day where I had to watch hours upon hours of certification videos so I could operate a forklift for this company. After I finally got out of the videos I had to take a test which was pretty easy so that made me feel like it was not a complete waste of time. Now here we are mid-week on Wednesday. On Wednesday I had to help my da...

This week we are talking about LinkedIn. LinkedIn is one of the most used professional platforms of social media. Majority of people that have a LinkedIn find their future employer or find their employees on there. It is a platform that you can put all your awards that you have received and titles you have earned through your schooling. The first thing you need to do when you make a LinkedIn account is to customize your profile to best market yourself as a potential employee for a company or to best market your business to hire potential candidates that find your account interesting. Once you have the profile customized you need to make connections with people to get your name out there. LinkedIn offers the opportunity to connect with both primary and secondary connections. For example, it will try to connect you with people that went to the same school as you. In summary LinkedIn is an effective connection and collaboration tool for employees and employers.
