So, as you all know, I am doing an internship at a huge, worldly known company. I paid for this opportunity to work in this company so that I could get the experience of working in a real company and learn things that would help me in my degree and in my future. My supervisor / boss is supposed to assign me work that applies to my line of work and make sure I am getting the most out of this opportunity. However, this hasn't really been the case. Over the past two months, working 9-5 every Monday-Friday, I have barely done anything that pertains to my line of studies / work and it's terrible. My supervisor talks down to me like I'm dumb. She asked me if I knew how to work Word, PowerPoint, Excel, etc. Obviously I know how to fucking use that shit because I'm in college and have been for 3 years and this is the 21st fucking century, if you don't know how to use that shit then maybe you never had a computer, idk, but basically everyone knows how to use it, so I was a bit insulted that she asked me if I knew how to use it. She also asked me if I knew what a fucking press release was. OBVIOUSLY I KNOW THAT. I'M IN COLLEGE, SOME PLACE SHE HAS NEVER BEEN. She went for 3 months and then dropped out. I don't know how the fuck she got this job. I actually think I am smarter than her. I want to come back to Portugal, apply for a job here, get it, then take her fucking spot. Yesterday she asked me to organize their file cabinets. I had a look on my face like are you fucking kidding me? She goes wake up, you're tired, huh? I said no, I'm not. In my head I was saying, fuck you I'm not here to organize your fucking file cabinets. Now she wants me to edit some video when I have absolutely no background in graphics or edits. It's literally like I'm her fucking bitch, she just makes me do whatever she doesn't want to do which is usually just stupid shit that does not help me. It's like oh can you make a PowerPoint, can you edit this, can you put these numbers in an excel sheet, can you register these people for a tradeshow? Bunch of pointless ass shit that does not help me learn at all. Very annoying. But thank god they decided to pay me. If they weren't I would go off on this bitch. Actually I couldn't really do that anyway because I need her recommendation for my resume. I would ask her to write me a recommendation letter, but I doubt she even knows how to do that. She was googling how to write a communication plan. SHE'S THE FUCKING COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR. Then she had me write the communication plan and was sending me the links she found on how to write it and I'm just sitting there like yeah I fucking know how to write a communication plan unlike you. I'm so annoyed, I can't wait to be out of here. Only 2 more days. And the rest of today. I haven't done anything today because I don't know how to edit this video, let alone do I have any editing software on my computer nor do I know how she wants this edited. And however I decide to edit it, she'll say that's not how she wanted it. Luckily, I'm getting a drink with Sam after work and I can vent about her to him. We can call her mean names and talk shit about her. Yayyy. I'm counting down the hours until I'm out of this place for good. I got 2 hours today, 7 tomorrow, and 7 on Friday (maybe less on Friday, I'll probably be late cause I'm totally going out on Thursday lol). Only 16 hours to go, I can do it!!
Also, I just started watching Jane the Virgin and it's like really good. I've been watching it all day, I downloaded Netflix on my phone because I have nothing to do at work and I think if I watched it on the work computer, it would either be blocked or they would totally know I was watching Netflix at work lmao. I'm just binge watching because what else is there to do? My boss came by and was like do you have work? I just said yeah because otherwise she would give me work and I don't want that lol.
