Today I spent most of the day getting familiar with the team I would be working with for the next two weeks. Each person was a designer, but they all carried a different flair to their job.
Also, I got my first project I’ll be working on for this program. They wanna see my skilz.
Anyway I’m gonna catch ya later.
Me on my way to my work experience at 3:75 in the morning:
There comes a time in every man’s life when he realizes he was supposed to make a blog post at the end of every day of his work experience. Now enjoy this post for the past three days.
Day 0: I slept. By this point, I had already communicated with the person who I was shadowing and knew what to expect for the day. I was told I only needed my computer and stable Wi-Fi. The next day I would come to realize I needed much more.
Day 1: I log onto the zoom call bright and early (9:00), and start my meet and greet with the person I’m shadowing. Mr. Ramarajan was very nice, welcoming, and an all around sick fella.
After a measly five minutes however, my Teams crashed and kicked me out of the call. No worries, I would just restart the call. Nope, when I restarted the call my microphone wasn’t working. No worries, I’ll just have them call my cell phone. Just kidding, my phone died the instant I thought of it. No worries, I just won’t do the work experience program and dodge all of Dr. Mac and Mrs. Jones’s emails until school is over.
Eventually everything worked out and I enjoyed a day of meetings and project work.
Day 2: Today was much more relax. I had my daily check in with my manager, Ms. Gull, and I attended a couple meetings. I got to see what a designer does on the day to day, and how much work goes into choosing things seemingly as simple as a color pallet.
Overall, the past three days have gone on quite swimmingly and I look forward to the next 6 days.
Ps. Sorry Dr. Mac for not posting the other days but we ball regardless.
