fruit on your desk

We were given our assigned seats and desks today, each one of us separated and placed in the midst of the more senior staff. Which is good, cos then we'll have pple to ask questions should we need any help (and yes, I can foresee myself needing a lot of help).

And chui ling is sitting only two seats away from me so *yay* I don't feel so alone. =) But thing is, both of us are the *blurrest* amongst the 5 interns. haha.. So we end up walking around to the others to ask them anyway.

I am really grateful that I got posted to this company. They are really trying to be the employer of choice and I bet they have a really good HR department. Providing trainings, manuals, tutorials, super comprehensive systems... We interns even get our own email accounts!

They are having this Movie Day next thurs for the Da Vinci Code!!!! On opening night! But dunno if we can get tix anot, cos us corporate tax interns only got our emails today. The audit interns got their tix liao. =( no fair. Free tix leh!!! Who duwan? haha.. hopefully we can get it too.. *prays hard*

And they do these cute little quirky things. Like placing a fruit on your desk every morning. How sweet! =) I like.. haha.. And those post-it notes. Every table was given one stack. I like coming back to the table to find these little surprises. haha.. Oh and this kind malay woman showed me where I could pray too. =) alhamdulillah

The work is just about to start piling up. I already have 4 jobs to do, and 3 of them are tax computations! Not like the ones we do in school, that one is chicken feet. For this one, you gotta find ALL the information yourself! Arghhh!! That's gonna be a nightmare. I thought we'd be given simple tasks first, but I guess I thought wrong. But I'm glad cos it's a challenge and if I can overcome this, I'd be able to overcome anything when I really start work. =)
