So today was my first day working in the Greenpeace office. There wasn't really any work today - it was just an orientation for most of us interns. It was great though, everyone there was so friendly and welcoming and really appreciative of us being there. Definitely a really nice environment to be working in. I'm excited. We learned about all of the office policies, the history of Greenpeace, and a bit about what sort of work we'll be doing. We also met a lot of people, including our managers/supervisors. There was a pot luck lunch with lots of yummy food and friendly conversation. Over all, very good day. I'm super excited :) Not so excited though about the Ragu and pasta I had for dinner... definitely need to go shopping again tomorrow. I also officially, although it IS only temporary, have a Greenpeace email address - how cool is that?
Also, yesterday on the bus Juliann and I definitely saw our first cocaine deal happening at a bus stop we were stopped at. Woot woot. Also, today we realized on our way to work the bus goes right by the mental institution here. Awesome.
Catch ya on the flip side :)
Hey Sis!
ReplyDeleteYour first day sounded pretty ideal! (Well, dinner aside). What specifically will you be doing? Do you answer that in your next blog? Maybe I should read it before expecting answers. :)
Its very cool that you have a GP addy, that's all official like (grin). Pity about the coke deals you may witness... wootworthy or otherwise. ;)
Cheers, ~ME
