Internship Experience, Meaning of Work, Learning Experience

Internship Experience:
My internship experience has been very helpful to me.  I feel like I have learned a lot of great work ethic.  I can now interact with people on a professional basis and learn as well as teach new things to others.  I have learned to be a team player more so than before.  I know the ropes of a big office atmosphere and feel like I am ready to be out in the real world now.  Being on the phone, completing envelope stuffing projects and dropping off materials to certain hotels in the Scottsdale Area are all accomplishments and tasks which need to be completed on time.  This internship experience has been of great value to me as I have never worked with people I don't know outside of my parent's office.

Meaning of Work:
       The meaning of work is to get a goal or more than one goal accomplished and feel satisfied with the ending product.  To put in work, one will get something out of it.  Usually this is something rewarding, especially if it is paid and at the end a check with your name on it is waiting.  It is important to work at a place that makes you happy.  In all of my work including school work I put in 100% effort without ever shorting myself or others.  The meaning of work is being happy, successful and productive.



Another Learning Experience
Another learning experience that I had was when I went on a job interview.  I went on my first professional job interview for my internship.  It was a big day and a lot of anxiety and emotion led up to it.  It was such an important and stressful experience but in the end very rewarding.  I was so excited and proud of myself after the interview.  It was especially rewarding that I got the job, and over 10 other people had interviewed for the same position.  I will never forget that day of my first job interview.  It was such a great learning experience.
