Last Day

April 2 was my last day on the internship. I really enjoyed working there. I couldn't have asked for better co-workers: they all taught me how to be a professional and take what I learned in class and apply it to the real world. I have thus far in my life only worked in the private sector, and I thought that working in the public arena would be the same-- but it's really not. I don't know how to explain it-- there's more protocol, I guess.

For my last day they all took me out to "the Turf"-- a very delicious Irish restaurant that is right by campus. I got a lot of cards, and a plaque!-- didn't see the plaque coming.

I really enjoyed this experience, and I want to thank DDO and ASU for giving me the opportunity.

  1. Must be nice to be done; I really don't know how much longer I have with Queen Creek. They are being very ambitious with new projects, but we'll see if they need me to stay longer (and possibly throw in a little financial incentive, if you know what I mean).

    I'm jealous about your plaque :(...at least it isn't on your teeth.
