Kick start February with my 6 months internship at SPIC.
On the first day, I spent like almost 3 hours reading and starring at the previous trainees report while waiting for the manager, also the boss to come. Then the manager walked me to the pepper and fruits garden. I was wearing heels and it was totally not convenient at all stepping on the soils and rocks. He told me I can wear T-shirts and flat sandals next time instead as I might have to go to garden once a while. He asked me the names for all the fruits planted and of course, I failed to answer any of it. I was given the tasks for continuing the previous project done by previous trainees. It was a brand new and challenging thing for me since I am not excellent in generating ideas.
The reason I dislike my job~
#1 Long working hours in a week (work 2 weeks for full in alternate Saturdays).
#2 Bring my own laptop and stationary to work. (working also need bring own resources one?)
#3 Low monthly payment (lower than those Indonesian maids, not even 1/3 of 1K).
#4 No need OL look at all (after 6 months I might pay no attention in dressing jor!)
This is going to happen for my life in the next 6 months. 6 months can mean a lot. Increment of salary, end of probation period, awarded half of bonus too)
#1 Good thing is I can get connected most of the time since I am in charged in searching information via my own laptop (writing this post during my working time...shhhh).
#2 The place is near with my house.
#3 I can work independently without supervision.
#4 Quite friendly staffs too (though just few of them).
1 thing to blame: How come Faculty of Food Science and Technology, UPM set 6 months for internship???
