Interning 101
First let’s handle important matters. Today is my birthday!!
(YAY!!)
Now to that matter at hand – this woman’s work. Disclaimer: This
update will be short for there is printed collateral to catalog.
My internship site is undergoing some growing pains, with
the ebb and flow of staff taking its toll. (I once heard that public relations
is a field with high turnover as the talented constantly seek the next
challenge. I now know that to be true.) However, I am grateful because it gives
me the opportunity to take on more complicated tasks. Moving beyond creating
media lists and inventory to drafting memos for clients is empowering. Today is better than most as I've had media clips and profiles to complete. Too be
honest, I am hoping for more. I feel woefully underutilized. Such is the lament
of driven people. I rather be overcome with work than to have an appreciable
amount of free time.
Until next week --
