Work

June 16, 2008

I’ve just started an “internship” that I’ll be working at for the next four or five weeks. I’m going through reports that this organization has written, and writing or editing web content for their new website, which should be up towards the end of July. It’s fascinating.

So far, I’ve run out of things to do twice, I’ve read my entire google reader full of blogs, and I’ve visited my mom (she works down the hall) three times. I sort of forgot how internships work: a few hours of work, followed by a few hours of downtime while the boss or supervisor looks over what you just did and thinks of something new to assign you. I think this one will actually have a little bit better workflow that the ones I’ve had over the past two summers after a couple of days of orientation. At least it has a tangible goal!

I’m working in a little corner room with leather couches and lots of light, which is nice. But some guy I don’t know just came in to sit down and share it with me. Eee!
