Today is april 26 which mean that in a few weeks time and i will be working as a intern for more than four months! Time really flies if we are not keeping track of it. I still remember the first day when i was late by nearly an hour since my work start at 7.45am in tuas and i lived in hougang. I practically took the first train but was still late cause of the outrageous traffic condition in jurong area!
So what i got to say about my life as a intern? Firstly, WHY DO I HAVE TO PAY SCHOOL FEE OF $3000 WHEN I DID NOT ATTEND SCHOOL DURING IA! or i do not need to pay? please enlighten me!
Anw! the life as a intern is practically like a roller coaster. there is up and down, sometime you will be very free when no one need you but sometime you just have to work like a robot when they really need you. I would say in all work life, it is the company of pals around you that matter. For my case i am really not that happy about it. You know the feeling when you first enter a new class and you do not know anyone? that is exactly the feeling! most of the engineer there are like at least 5 to 10 years older than me. I cant click with them at all... They talk about their children in school, they complain about their in laws, they complain this other girl in HR wearing short skirts. It is all stuff that is still early for me to join in the discussion.
Sometime it feel really hard that i do not have anyone to talk to during work as i am mostly alone, i mean i cant just talk to my senior who is 35 years old and tell him that diablo 3 is out this may. you get what i mean? Every time i talk to them is just about work related stuff or when i need their help in some stuff. To make thing worse, i feel like i am the outcast in the department. There is more foreigners than locals in the company so end up they are forming clique and talk about stuff which only they know.
so at the end of the day, work life to me is about self survival. you have to cover your own back since there seem to be no longer any friendship between everyone. people just want to do better than everyone else to get promoted first.
i guess the only true friend are those we have when we are still young and innocent. shall continued reading my lightroom book and write my log book too!
