Feb: Week of the 10th

Well, after all the school closings, I finally got to my Walkabout. Psssssh.

Monday I told you about, I worked upstairs on the Sales floor with Emilie. She's so awesome. Towards the end of the day she started google-ing to find out what was in my keychain. Too bad, she could have spent that time working on her Cold Calls and such.

Thursday I was downstairs in Engraving. Basically I was in the same room all day loading the badges on to the engraving machine, taking the finished ones off, etc. I picked up on it so fast that they had me work two tables! It takes a ton of awareness, and I hope to be able to program the names and strokes for the engraving soon

Friday I worked with Terry again. This time we were making signs. I think they were for a Boy-scout group or something. Anyways, he would print out the numbers on a special machine thay cut the screen-print (You know, that plastic stuff that goes on your car in details and flames and bumper stickers?) out, then you have to peal away the extra so just the number remained. It's not as easy as it sounds. By then end of the day, two signs for 1, 2, and 12 still had to be made.


Hopefully (I really want to talk to James about this ASAP) for the rest of my 3rd quarter walkabout I'll work in the Art department, learning how to design the badges right and how to use Adobe Illistrator, and for my 4th quarter walkabout to HOPEFULLY be able to stay at Identity Systems Inc. and work in the Engraving department or in the tech room to get a further grasp on how a buisness is run and such.

Tata for now!
