9-5 Life

By sfogarty1

As I settle into the daily rhythm of working at 9-5 job I have started to think about what life is going to be like after I graduate. I look at the recent grads that are working next to me and wonder how they can come in day after day and continue to make sales calls and push their products. I think part of it is just getting over the initial change of pace from a school setting to a work environment. As the days have gone on I have found it increasingly easier to go to work and enjoy what I am doing. We recently moved offices from the 22nd floor of Two International place in downtown Boston to just across the hall, so it was a relatively easy thing logistically. The space that we were leasing before was huge. There are a total of 7 people that work out of the office during a given day. However the old office space was meant for about 14 or so. That means that there was a lot of empty space and it made it hard to get to know everyone as a new intern. Since we have moved it has been much easier to make friends and being the only intern in the office it is nice to have people to talk to throughout the day.

In regards to the databases that I have been working with, I have made a number of different queries to try and find the right people to contact. Some have been better than others and it gets much easier as you talk to the clients and gauge their interest level in Marquis Jet. I have had the chance to talk to many very influential people during the few short weeks I have been working and I hope the networking that I am doing here can benefit me in the future.
