Last Week
July 31, 2002

GE Panametrics was a very good learning experience for me.  

On Wednesday, July 24^th, I had to count so much inventory.  For example, I counted roughly 140 different parts and within each part are many items that need to be counted.  One part I had to count had 1232 blocks within it that I had counted.  The long hours, the traffic, the miles, and standing all day long made the week extremely tiring; however, the client, the managers and staff were very helpful and nice throughout the entire inventory observation. 

This final week I am unassigned in the office.  Again, when I am unassigned there isn’t a whole lot to do rather sometimes there isn’t anything I can be doing unless some of the staff are not out at a client and need a assistance with a certain job.  It is a nice break though rather than being up in Waltham, Massachusetts for another week.  I am suppose to meet with my performance manager tomorrow where she will be discussing my internship exit process fully in detail.  Today, I am in the office writing an entry and working on a lot of housekeeping details that need to be handled.

Questions for Jason?
