Flowers!

Beginning my third week at my placement company and I got flowers sent to me from my lovely boyfriend for my birthday! I was so embarrassed….but in a good way 🙂

“Bloody Hell, you’ve only been here two weeks?!”

This was the response I got when Amy asked me what date I started work at Graphico. I took it as a compliment, as I’ve made a good enough impression on them and worked long hours for me to fit right into the company. We’ve been so busy, and the hours are just flying by. Last weekend was absolutely fantastic as we went off to the Isle of Wight festival to do some interactive things for a major client of theirs. Don’t know much I can say, but it was so good I can tell you that. To top that, we’re all jetting off to T in the Park in Scotland in July and also doing V Festival in August…told you I was going to have the best summer ever. 🙂

I also realised that I’m learning a lot on the job, and it’s put me at ease that I don’t have to know all the skills when I go into a full time job. Amy said to me that every company that you go to vaires and so you have to learn things thier way. I don’t know if I mentioned but I’m working as a Junior Account Executive, soud very fancy! I should be able to move around the company and shadow a couple of people over a few days, just so I can get the most out of my work experience and see how a company is structured. Sorted!

Hectic, but good!

What a week! I can’t believe a week has gone by already, I suppose the bank holiday hasn’t helped. I’ve been really busy and the time has flown by, which is the way I like it as time goes quicker when you’re having fun, lol! It’s been a good week as I’ve heard most people don’t do much in their first week or so at work placement and I have been quite busy, it feels like I’ve just slotted right into the company.

 I was doing admin type stuff today which wasn’t great but Amy apologised and said that I’ll get to do better stuff when they’re not so busy and people can actually sit down with me. Also, they know that I want to move around the company and see what other people do, so it’s all good.
