by Craig Altschul

When Northeastern University student Molly Candon went looking for a summer job, she never thought it would be with the Boston Red Sox. Molly, who lives in Rutland with her parents and brother Justin when not at Northeastern, turned down several more lucrative offers to be the host for guests who purchased expensive group packages that include prime game seats and dinner, reported the Rutland Herald. She had all but forgotten about sending the Sox an inquiry letter regarding summer employment when she heard from them out of the blue, went for an interview at the corporate offices on Yawkey Way, and got the job. She will be "working" at every Sox home game that started with Opening Day when the World Championship team received their rings. "I was pretty starstruck, but hopefully that will change," she said. She’s probably the envy of all her friends -unless they’re Yankee fans.
