Work experience over
Today I finished my work experience, in some ways it’s a relief but in other ways I feel quite sad. I am happy that I don’t need to do all the travelling and the boring jobs that I sometimes had to do, but then yesterday and today there was a completely different atmosphere in the office. It was really busy and vibrant, which is what I like, it made the place seem more alive and definitely more of a creative buzz. The press day is next week, which is a shame that I am missing out on that, after all the work that I’ve done for it.
It was really nice today that all the girls in the office got me a card and we had cakes a nibbles before I left. I thought that was really generous and nice of them to do that, especially when they are so busy preparing for everything.
This weekend it’s time to get ready to go back to uni, I’m not sure how I feel about that at the moment, where I have been working I haven’t really thought about it much, I would like a few days of rest but that never happens.
On a good note though, today at work there was a sample sale and a chuck out, so I have basically kitted out my wardrobe for the next month, I got some really great stuff, and I think that’s defiantly a good incentive to work there and also it keeps the staff happy.
All the girls working there have given me some contacts and advice if I wanted to do more work experience in the future, they all mentioned about working for a supplier, which is something I never really thought of doing but it maybe something that I look into.
Whilst working at Arcadia I have started to think about my own future, and I think that I have decided that I want to work for myself. I think after I leave uni I will travel for a little while, for inspiration and just to relax and get away, and then start working for a company so I have so income coming in, whilst writing a business plan and starting to create a company. I figured if it doesn’t work out, I can always do something else!
