I'm a third-year college student who was looking for a 6-month internship in the finance field. Today I received two job offers, one at a less well-known firm that pays $27 an hour with no prospect of full-time conversion, and one at one of the most reputable investment banks in the world paying $45 an hour in the world with high rates of full-time conversion. My dumb ass ended up mixing up the two emails and accepting the $ 27-an-hour offer instead of the $ 45-an-hour offer. If I back out, my university will ban me from participating in the internship program potentially starting an inquiry into expulsion.
TL;DR Today I fucked up by absolutely sucking at emails and accepting the wrong job offer. Check your emails before you send them lol. If anyone needs me I'll be kicking myself for a good year.
