SUMMER INTERNSHIP: Teaching what it has to, i guess!

Sitting head held high, looking around the office from my cubicle! Yes, I have a cubicle to myself.. J Nah! Just kidding, its probably the first time DHL Express is recruiting summer trainees and don’t have free space to accommodate them.. that is no issue as the sales team has always some or the other cubicle free. And like any other day I am sitting here is some guy’s cubicle. and then looking out (don’t think I have no work, its during the break from the work that I am writing this). Anyways the atmosphere, the ambience, in fact everything about the office is good. The people are interesting and friendly so orientation was fun.
Today its almost 1.5 months and I feel like I am a full time employee, doesn’t it say great deals about the company! Yes it does..
The experience is awesome; I got to learn a great deal about corporate life, how different it is from what the so called gyan gurus say back in the college. The statement that it’s not easy out there in the corporate world, they just throwing shit at you and unfortunately I was buying it! The fact remains that its all about working the right way, there is unfortunately only one right way! May be that’s why they say its tough! But that isn’t hard to follow so whats the big deal? During my summer internship I can proudly say that I learned a few lessons of life. People do appreciate one’s effort and they are always keen to help in case it is for something worthwhile. Yes, no unnecessary hurdles set just to trouble you! Indeed different from what you experience at college level. And the irony is when enquired why so, the typical answer one gets in the college is –“It’s like that nothing comes easy we are training you for the corporate world”.
I guess for a fresher like me it’s very difficult to come to terms with ideal working conditions. It’s only because my consciousness tries to tell me that it’s difficult in corporate world. And when I find its not and people are ready to take the initiative it’s relieving but confusing. May be one who is reading this is also confused by what I am trying to say, precisely where I am right now - confused!
But I guess Summer internship is for us to get the corporate feel and shed all inhibitions and rest assured I have all my inhibitions shrugged off. So, yes the intention was delivered at least in my case.
