Image via WikipediaI am now officially somewhat employed! I believe I am what people would refer to as a temp. Not sure how I feel about that, but hopefully it'll just be something to do between now and a real job. So yup, Tuesday and Wednesday I have what I would call a "gig" in my freelance musician alter-ego. I'm doing what I suppose is going to be receptionist slash customer service work at a place called
Booz Allen Hamilton. I looked up their company, and I am convinced that the greater DC area has the highest saturation of companies that you are not sure of what exactly they do, even after reading about them. Here is a sentence from their "About our Clients" section: "Booz Allen Hamilton's clients are government agencies and institutions that want to change their organizations and the world for the better." Um... that would be everyone probably- way to be vague. They are a consulting agency, which I understand the role of, but it seems like they could be a little more specific somehow. "We consult companies on... [insert real job description here please]." It could be that I'm just uninformed though; I'm sure I will understand consulting agencies better after working for one, excuse me, temping for one. heh.
