Its hard to say no when youve been offered a shot at your dream job.
Miranda Peters did so, twice.
It was mostly out of loyalty, and other reasons.
Peters, who grew up gazing at stars from atop her familys garage in Humboldt and who dreamed of one day becoming an astronaut for NASA, had already accepted a job from an aeronautics firm in Wichita.
So, when the call came earlier this summer from a representative from SGT, a company that supplies personnel for NASA, a heartbroken Peters had to decline.
The first call came shortly after Graduation Day.It came time for me to be loyal, she explained to the Register in a telephone interview. I had given my word to a company that had already set aside my salary, where I knew people were advocating for me to get a job there.
