First Week

Sorry it has been so terribly long since my last post.  I have been more busy than I imagined.

So here is how my first work week went:

Monday:
First day of work! The day consisted mostly of lectures about the basics of the company.  It was a terribly long day, because we were sitting in the same chair for 9 hours.  We even had lunch in the same room.

Tuesday:
This day was when all of the audit interns were separated between our industries--commercial or financial services.  I am in the financial services sector, so I was meeting a lot of new people.  These trainings consisted mostly of auditing basics, including the auditing system that Deloitte uses.

Wednesday:
More trainings, we played a lot of games Wednesday, so the day went by much more quickly. 

Wednesday night, a few of the interns went to a Yankees game.  I had a really great time, and it was good to get to know some new people, and also get to spend time with people that I was already familiar with. 

Thursday:
Thursday was a pretty relaxed day.  Most kids still didn't have access to the online trainings we had to do, so we spent a lot of time playing games and watching online videos.  It was a pretty fun day, and I sat with some really nice kids.

Thursday night the intern class had an organized happy hour, it was in the financial district, so it was a pretty cool atmosphere.  Unfortunately, however, it was really crowded, so it was hard to get to talk to everyone.  It was a really good time, though.

Friday:
Today was pretty quick as well.  This morning we had a "welcome" breakfast where we had the most delicious french toast.  It was so sweet it didn't even need syrup.  I also got to meet a few other interns, and some professionals that I hadn't met before. 

Tonight I'm not really sure what I'm going to do.  Maybe go out, maybe stay in because it's rainy and nasty here. 

I start working at my client site Monday, so I will try to be better about keeping things updated!
