Mistakes, Posters, & Smiles

This week I missed a day of work. Basically what happened, is that in my mind a Thursday and Friday off of school still feels like school and schedule should be there, and thus I remember that I have to work. However, when school is off on Monday, specifically Halloween, it is still very much the weekend in my world. I didn't realize that I should be in my cubicle until 3:00pm, and by then it was too late. It is a mournful passing, but at least I learned from it. Morel of the story, I found that I do not need to go to work on days off of school if I choose not to, but my supervisors would like it if I told them what I am planning on doing those days.

The actual scheduled event of the week- A&E Open House- went quite well. I had a booth with my fellow interns from the school, Connor at the Public Works Department with me, two from Black & Veatch, and one from Kiewit. It was nice to talk to people legitimately interested in what we do, but I got the feeling that the public felt that the other internships were more impressive than mine. Everybody's a critic.
