bLaCkIcE's Conundrum

Industrial Attachment.....

Been doing my IA for almost 2 months.... encountered a few things.. some good some not so good... Have an IA mate. from another country.. He's as young as my bro... Frenly guy that likes soccer too... fan of Milan which is cool with me. But sometimes i just can't stand him .. dunno y...Sometimes he dun even bathe be4 he goes to work..and he kinda smells...on top of that, he stands damn close when he's talking to others... I wish i could just wave him away sometimes.....Another issue is that he kinda starts talking at the wrong times....and when i'm in a bad mood.. i'll just probably ignore him...I know its bad of me to dat... but still.. i'm only human :P not a saint

Another thing i noticed is that ppl with higher academic achievement tends to be arrogant or snobbish(at least at the place where i'm working).....Seen a lot of faces that smiles whenever they are talking to a fellow colleague but whenever they see us (the IA students) they just show the stupid long face, with a sneering look. What the hell!! Dr so wat! Big deal?! Ok, I know i shouldn't make such sweeping statement coz there are some who are quite frenly ....all it takes is a smile.....but some definitely are hopeless....

Have a supervisor who keep asking me to make my own decisions..i appreciate that he is trusting my judgemnet but seriously, I'm just an intern! How much power do i really have? After i decided to do this and that, I have no authority watsoever to request the other permanent staff there to do my bidding./... in the end i still have to refer back to him.. I can't use him as a shield could i? I'll probably piss everyone off and end up having a worse time there...

and of coz all the back stabbing etc... not as serious as i expected but still...a workplace without conflicts like this.. issit even possible? If you know of any, do tell me...I dunno.. beginning to think that working isn't even for me... not with all the politics etc... Maybe i'm just a weakling who can't survive in this society...
