Internship (second week)The week started unexpectedly. Woke up in the morning, dragging myself to work, thinking that nothing special will happen for the day, and i’ll be stuck in the office as i'm not assigned for any jobs, when i checked on the previous friday. Just an hour passed, and i was on my way to a client's place. This really made me feel much better, as i really hate sitting in the office, staring out at the 'scenic' view, doing castings (checking of arithmetical accuracy) .
My senior was really patience with me. I got there, feeling as though i had thrown all the teachings i got from SP back to them. Blank - the best word to describe what was running through my mind when he handled some part of the procedure to me. He showed me the ropes for about in that 2 days working with him so was really grateful to him.
Stayed inI was scheduled to some clients for the next 2 days, however, i didn't go to their place as i thought i would be able to. I stayed in the office, making overseas calls to client to authenticate the confirmations they sent. Confirming the confirmation. Kinda redundant when i first thought of it, but realised the importance when my senior explained. Along with some castings, photocopying and filing, it wraps up the events for the next 2 days.
My 'day' (work)Don't wanna get too much attention. The only thing i chat about with my fellow interns are their results and work-related stuffs. They still managed to know later when WeiSong told them. Kinda awdward when they wished me but nonetheless felt thankful for it. As for work, my senior for that assignment forgot about the meeting we supposed to had, so she was away at a client's place and instructions were then given through calls. Not really sure if i was doing the assignment correctly but i tried my best, so maybe will ask her on monday.
Then went out to client's place for assets sighting (checking for asset's existence). Told that i need not bring anything, except for the list of assets to check. Took a taxi there only to realise i need to bring my IC, which i had left it at my workplace. So took another taxi back, collect my IC, and took another there, again. Waste of time.
Meet the client and he brought me to a data center. The entry is kinda cool, looks like a body scanner. Tube container made of glass, curved doors on either side, each opened and closed seperately. The room resembles the setting in the movie: 'Firewall', really awesome experience.
i will never let you fall...
...i'll stand up for you forever
