Another Move

"Yeah, that's kind of what they do here," Amanda told me. "Like, they'll bring you on board for one thing and then, when they get to know you better and learn about where your skills lie, they'll move you to something that fits you better."

So that explains why I'm now working with Paul Brienza, the Senior Vice President of the Digital "Department," who's Dennis' supervisor. I'm working in his office now, or in the conference room outside it, or downstairs in my cubicle, or anywhere.

This is exciting for a few reasons. First, Paul really understands the potential value of an internship. He invites me to shadow him and see how he works with clients, to get my feet wet in his colleagues' projects... To learn through osmosis and take on real responsibility. Second, because I'm one step closer to working with actual clients. Third, because, well, I'm easily excitable.

We'll see how this develops.
