My First Two Weeks (Feb. 22-March)

My mentor is a very cool person. she help me when i need help and she always explains the work to me before i do it. she been working in the business for 15 years. when ever i work to hard she always tell me to take a break. she offered me food sometimes, also my other mentor is pretty cool we don't talk that much but he let me go early when there's nothing else to do. Sometime he even send my partner and i to other companies so we can deliver things. Once we do that they buy it from us then they can make those materials into anything they want. The environment is pretty fresh it always smell like T.D.G cards because there's so many in the office. When i first went to the office my first thought were OMG because they have over 2000 cards which i been doing for the last few weeks. My first day was awesome because i got to deliver T.D.G cards to other companies which i design myself (lol) i had to cut the madras and look out for repeats. i was able to pick women 's pictures so other companies can transform them into clothes or anything that they want. My goals for internship is to complete all my hours and if i have times ill do extras. I hope to gain the cutting skills because right now im kinda bad at it right now. So far i had to find madras which is a piece of materials that have diffeent kind of pivtures on them. The challenging that was bugging me how to cut because i had to cut materials that was really thin also i had to watch out for repeats. A repeat is line up pictures which you cant cut unless they tell you so. But im doing cut card and write down the numbers in the back, its kinda because in one box together can b over 150 and sometimes i do more when im with my partner.

  1. Nice description. It sounds like a pretty hands-on internship.
