Powerpoint Presentations and How to Make Spreadsheets

Its' been 3 weeks, and I've gained quite a bit of insight. I've learned that I choose school over work any day of the week. I've learned that I better start understanding how to make spreadsheets a hell of a lot better. And I've learned that work really isn't supposed to be that fun. This was the first week I wasn't babysat and coddled as much by my boss. I was left instructions on what to do for the week, and from there I was on my own. My job was to contact as many stadiums, arenas, and venues as possible and devise a presentation that deals with how our staff is recognized at Staples Center. Our program lacked much depth compared to most of the stadiums I called. It was quite interesting coming into contact with all these representatives from different teams across the nation. Whether I was talking to the Denver Nuggets at the Pepsi Center or the Chicago White Sox at the US Cellular Field, the reps were so willing to help. Every team I talked to had questions on their end as well, which felt pretty satisfying when I answering to all these directors of Human Resources. As the week came to a close, the presentation was complete and I compiled quite a number of different programs and tactics that potentially could be implemented as soon as next year. So, like I said earlier, work is no playground. You get there on time, do your work, and leave; nothing else to it. However, though it may not be fun, walking away from your desk after a productive day at work and getting complimented based on your results is as close as it will come.
