Internship Post 6
Dates: 7/3/17 - 7/5/17
Activities: Cataloging files
Technical Information: Memotech
Reflection: We had 2 days off for July 3rd and 4th. I got back on the 5th and the office was pretty empty because many people took off the whole week for vacation. There wasn't a lot for me to do that Wednesday so I helped Ms. Valeria catalog things to Memotech. Its yet another time-consuming task because I have to upload each individual file. I notice this recurring pattern actually: uploading each file individually because of the need to categorize each file separately. It's extremely time-consuming and requires a lot of patience, which I am slowly learning. My first time working with Ms. Valeria was possibly worse than now, simply because the first time involved heavy lifting. There were physical patents I had to categorize by type and date and the packets themselves were pretty heavy, especially when combined. But after the first Friday, everything else involving Memotech was just uploading files virtually which was, literally and physically, a weight off my shoulders.
My duties have not really changed much since when I first started. My three main tasks are Intranet editing, the FINDit transferring, and cataloging with Memotech. My responsibilities and expectations have also stayed about the same; I'm expected to behave as an adult in the work area, i.e get work done efficiently and correctly. I really like this internship and so far it's been an extremely fun and helpful experience for me.
