I see my face on the table of contents page in The Graphic weekly, telling the public that I will be updating my run as an intern weekly. As you can see I have not done all that great with keeping up with it. I think this is the one area that I've failed as an intern. I'm not even real sure why I have such a problem with blogging. I always have a lot to say about things, but I think it's more everything that goes on with me I don't feel is interesting enough to talk about. But I guess I'll start… Continue

I'm a little upset at the moment after sneaking out of the office a few minutes early to make it to my job at Knot, Just a Bar on time, and being called off for the fourth - maybe fifth time. I can officially say I am not making nearly as much money as I usually do in the summer as of yet, so I'm hoping that business picks up. Unfortunately with interning I do not have the option to work more hours in the week, which I wish I did because that would solve a lot of my problems. Plus, I enjoy it. H… Continue

One of my weaknesses is that I’m a rambler. No that’s not a reference to the fact that I used to be a Boyne City Rambler (haha). But instead, a reference to the fact that I have a hard time getting to the point. For example, I work for Knot, Just a Bar as a server as well. It was raining the other day so I thought I might call ahead and see if I was going to be called off. It wasn’t due to my lack of ambition to work, I just didn’t want to drive up there and be sent home with gas prices the way… Continue

I was referred to as “the little intern” the other day by someone who may be four years older than me, maybe. My response was, “Did you seriously just call me ‘the little intern’?” It's not just at work, but everywhere I go I am mistaken for a 17 year old. I'm not sure why that is. Experience wise, I suppose the name makes sense though. But still, it’s kind of the same way I feel when a young waitress walks up to the table and says, “And what can I get for you hun?” Not just hun, but sweetie or… Continue

My JRN 300 teacher at Michigan State University told everyone horror stories about interning. She talked of students getting fired on their first days, of being thrown into the job without having a clue what to do and about interns who spend their whole summer where their most demanding task is remembering who likes regular and who likes decaf. All of those situations intimidated me. So far, my experience has been far from that. Which is probably for the better for everyone, because I'm not sure… Continue
