Today was my second day of an engineering internship with ARINC here in Panama City Beach. So far I am really enjoying the place, My first day consisted of what you might expect a first day to be: briefings, paperwork, and getting a handle of the situation. I was also assigned my office, which really isnt shared with anyone except someone who comes in once a week and another who comes in once a month. Theres always people comming in though, since I have the nearest printer. Its not so bad, besides the fact that I ran my knee into the ends of the two desks that are pushed together to give me a desk. That wasnt too much fun.
My second day was better, despite the fact that I was not able to get to work at 8 as I had planned, instead getting in around 8:30. But all was well and I finished up reviewing stuff that I wasnt able to finish the day before and then running over to the navy base to get finger printed. I thought black ink was used for those things, but its red and then is put through somesort of process that turns the prints black. Interesting.
The rest of the morning consisted of me testing some things out, and going and getting some BBQ for lunch. After that I took care of some product research and completed the training I needed to do. Of course that and RIP A PHONE BOOK IN HALF! Yeah, I did it. Took a little while, and now its proudly displayed on my desk.
Otherwise, that is it. I am looking forward to rest of my time there and it shall be interesting when another intern who is a senior (at FSU I assume) starts in a week and a half.
