Internship Blog 8: Week Three

The prompt I chose: 6. What are you thankful for in your internship experience?

I am thankful for being comfortable in the environment. Being comfortable is important, because if I wasn't around people who talked like me, have the same interests, I think it would be awkward. I'd just be sitting in a corner doing my work, and nothing to socialize on. It's nice being able to talk movies, video games, food, and weekend trips with the guys at my work.

I am also thankful for learning something new. I now know how to call businesses and address everything I want from the call in my first sentence, so they don't have to ask. I understand how systems (such as ConnectWise and LogMeIn) work, which is very crucial to know, because most businesses are moving to cloud computing (which is what CW and LMI are, cloud-controlling programs.) Another reason I'm thankful to learn something new is because I wanted a challenge. I could've picked "make a movie on an iPad," but I already know how to do that. So what would I be learning? Not much. Here, I am learning important, valuable skills.
