It has been some time i never blog, but i just want to share with you guys how i went through my internship.i hope it helps if you are having tough time like me=)
Working as an intern is definitely not easy at all. I still remember how harsh my Boss treated us with hurtful words like:
-Interns deserve no rest. you wanna rest? rest after 3months. Then you can have all the time you want.
-You sucks, admit it! it's ok, just don't suck too long.
-You dont like it, Get out of my office!
-The world won't stop because you are on mc or someone in your family pass away.
We work long long....hours per day. It's like you will never see the sun.
During production time, working for 20++ hours is inevitable.And you got to find ways to cope with that because you are not allow to fall sick. That moment is tough. Your pride is challenged, your dream is crushed, your passion faded and at the end of the day,
you will start questioning yourself, am i doing the right thing? Is this what i wanna do for my entire life?
Working long hours, sacrifice your social life and with all those unbearable stress?
Then I compare myself with other frens who do internship at other places. They are doing great!
They are happy, their Boss are good to them, they have more benefits, they have higher income.
i was like LIFE IS NOT FAIR!
Why they get all the good things?
i begin to complain, blame and angry with everything around me.
i wonder why God want to put me in such a bad situation where i don't see any point working in a company that i cant learn much.(That's what i think in the beginning)
But it's ok.Things will get easier and easier as we survive, i told myself.
My Boss challenged me in many many ways, well not to mention for those heavy workloads and mission impossible. Until one day my Boss switch me to another department that do team building business. The team building leader told me, it's going to very tough and tiring. i was like oh no... Surprisingly, i found it piece of cake compare to what i did in production department. I am able to work longer hours compare to my colleague. And i come to realize, when you have been through the worst, next time the challenge come, it doesn't bother me anymore.
Currently i almost finish my internship and my Boss turn out to be quite ok lately. He offered us a project and our internship assessment is going to base on that. He warn us that, if we did it badly, he will fail us all. So make sure it is an "A" project. It's either "F" or "A", no B, C, D,E..
We were under lots of pressure that time.
Until........tatang~~~ this is our final product, and of course it is an A product ;)
So enjoy it, and ready to burst in laughter coz it is an comedy.
So what i'm trying to say is, it is very hard to hang on to things that you think is unreasonable. But be patient and faithful, juz tell yourself, juz a little while, a little more, yea... almost~~~
Then 1 week pass, 2 weeks pass and without your realization, things gets better and you are able to adapt already. So frens, gambateh!^^
Sweetness come after bitterness!
Till then, tata=)
