My Work Experience.
My Work Experience Finally the day had come; our first day of our work experience, today was when we stepped out of our childish sugar coated world, into the harsh reality, of what is work. I woke up later than usual, the extra hour gave me more time to worry to what the day ahead is going to bring, happiness? Sadness? Exhaustion? This question ran through my head like a freight train, over and over again. The morning passed rather quickly without a word being spoken between my mum and me. Next minute I knew I was stepping out of my house into the miserable Monday morning weather. "Is this a sign of what's going happen today?" I pondered. On the way to my work experience I remembered the instructions they gave me, "Casual clothes, check, 9.00am start check" I murmured to myself. Everything was going according to plan, I glanced outside the window, to see a sea of confusion as the traffic jams hit the M4, as other people like me were on their way to work. "There it is" I said to myself "My home for the next week". We pulled up to the barrier where the guard came over to us. He was a pretty built man, with a balding patch on the crown of his head and a 70's moustache. My mum explained to him that I was here on work experience. "Ok, please write you name and who you are working with please" the guard ordered. I was passed a piece of paper on a clipboard with a pen attached
My Work Experience
My Work Experience Before My Work Experience During the summer holiday, I kept thinking about what sort of work I was going to get as it was not fully confirmed before I left for the summer holidays. I received a letter from the school explaining where I was going to be working and my Job Description and Hours, etc. The company I was going to be working for was 'Jacobs Babtie' which is one of the leading technical and management consultancies operating in transport and development, environment, property and structures, and partnerships and outsourcing markets both in the UK and internationally. The job description was very unattractive as it described that I was going to be putting 'PC input' which was okay but then carried explaining printing maps, photocopying, etc which I rather boring. Right from the start I wanted a place related with computers, so where did they place me a place related with computer. In some ways I was looking forward to be working with computers but in some ways I dint want to go as it dint like doing photocopying or printing all day. During My Work Experience So here it came, the day I was going to work for the first time. I woke up at 7:30 as my start was at 9:30 and finished at 3:30 which I liked. While I was getting ready and eating my breakfast I kept trying to picture on what I was going to do and how my first day would go. Firstly I went
My Work Experience.
Johan Kelly GCSE citizen coursework My Work Experience. introduction: When i first heard that we had to do work experience i thought it was a good opportunity to see what it was like to work in a proper working environment. I was told that i would have to work for a week in one of the listed jobs that the borough of Broxbourne had chosen or we could pick our own job and just tell the school the details so they could check that it was a safe working environment. I chose to work with my dad in an office helping him with his job as the supervising manager because i thought it would be relevant to what I'm going to be doing in the near future so its best i learn sum skills now , so that I'm ready for "the working world" in the future when I've finished all my studies at school ,college , or university. The first thing i had to do was get the information for the slip to hand into school , as soon as i got the slip off the school i came home and got my dad to fill in all the details of the company and workplace. My dad was glad that he could show me what to do , so that i wasn't just messing about and I actually got sum experience of what it would be like to be in the work place to prepare me. I was looking forward to the week ahead to learn new skills and just see what it felt like to be in a proper working environment. first day: My first day was probably the hardest day
My Work Experience
My Work Experience Before my work experience placement, I was confused and could not decide what to do. I was interested in doing everything from office work to teaching, but I finally managed to find myself a placement in retail at Boots in St. Georges Shopping Centre, Harrow. My hours were 10am to5pm, Monday to Friday. To get this placement, I personally went in, and asked if they would take me. When I first went there I met Sanjay (the store manager), whom I talked to, about it. He gave me their address and told me that they would take me in, as long as I had a letter from school. I was over joyed; as this was the first shop I went to and got the placement. All my worries of getting the placement were over. It was like passing a GCSE exam. After that all the official letters and forms were completed by our work experience coordinator, Mrs. Lunan and I received an official conformation letter, after a long wait in May. All I had to do now, was to wait, wait and wait as I had received conformation two months before. I started to get nervous and scared but also ambitious and ecstatic at the same time. I was going to do something new and different. Every night and day I had short visions of what my tasks would be, how I would get on and how the staff would treat me. I was getting tired of these visions and finally they stopped on 23rd June when my work experience commenced.

My work experience essay- By Dhruv Rishi Joshi. For my work experience placement, i chose to go to a designer clothes shop which is local from my house. I choose to go here as i am intrested in going into sales as a career when im older and looking for a job, so working in a sales atmosphere in a designer clothes shop would be ideal for me getting experience in sales. My work experience was to last 2 weeks and i had to work full time from 10am till 5:30pm every week day. I was actually quite lucky to get this time to arrive and leave my work experience placement as i had friends who had to work longer hours and travel futher to get to there place of work. I also wanted to work at this particular place for my work experience becuase the shop itself is one of the high streets leading suppliers in designer clothes, so I would be able to attain a good reference from a reputable company which would help me out in the future. I was really excited and couldnt wait to start my work experience as i never really had a proper job before, only a couple of paper rounds a very long time ago, which i had got fired from and i always had wanted a job where i could meet customers and talk to them and see what their requirements were. My job title at my work experience was 'Sales Assistant' which was not a bad start for some one who was just there to do work experience for 2 weeks, which i
My Work Experience Report
My Work Experience Report For my work experience placement, I went to Barkers Riding Stables in Helmsley for both of the two weeks. At first I wanted to go to the stables for one week, and then to the Stephen Joseph Theatre in Scarborough for the last week. My mind was strongly changed about going to the theatre when I heard things about it from my friends who had been there previously. I had heard that you didn't really get a chance to experience the acting career, instead spent more time in the cafeteria and box office. My work at the riding stables was fairly easy, and something I was used to from previous work with horses. To me, it was more like a holiday than a work placement, as I got to go riding nearly every day! Although, I have to say, that the work I did, if you were not as used to it as I am, it could have proved quite strenuous and tiring. The daily work I did was mucking-out the stables. This basically means cleaning all the dirty straw or bedding and muck out of the stables, and then either leaving the stable to dry out a bit, or bedding it back down with clean straw, and getting clean water and hay. After about four stables, this job starts to take its toll on you, so I was very lucky that it was summer, and most of the horses were out in the field. Another daily job was cleaning tack. This is basically just cleaning the horses' saddles and bridles with
Autobiography - original writing.
Huw Liddell 26/05/03 Autobiography I had five months to sort out my work experience placement and thought that I had more than enough time in which to do so. Before long, however, I was called to Mr Williams's office, the man in charge of finalising the work experience. I had just found out that I had overnight to get a placement somewhere, otherwise I'll be stuck in school with year 9 for the week. My ideal placement would be something to do with sports because that's my favourite subject in school but I knew I couldn't find somewhere and get a reply all in one night. The only placement I knew I could go without having to wait for a reply was with my mother! My mother works at Cardiff University in the Biochemistry Unit. I'm still not sure exactly what she does, but I think it's something along the lines of teaching and researching into cells. Before I knew it work experience had almost arrived. It was very tense around the house; I suppose I was excited because I didn't have a clue what I was going to be doing and also a little scared for the same reason. The first morning was pretty easy because I had no dress code, and as my mother is her own boss, I had no strict hours either. Also I didn't have to be polite around my mother, so I could just be my self. I was sort of expecting it to be boring working
My Pharmacy Work Experience
Section Five- Extension Activity During the five days I was there, I observed a lot of teamwork, and in my opinion that’s what is keeping the organisation going so successfully. For example, when new stock is delivered to the pharmacy, one person would open the many boxes, another would put the medication into piles according to name and strength and another would place these piles of medication on the shelves. It was a joy to watch for the first time, because I genuinely thought it would be impossible because of the great number of large cardboard boxes there were, but it was all finished in about half an hour. For each delivery that took place after this, I took part in this team, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. In addition, the main purpose of the organisation is to supply medication to patients, and I’ve seen that the pharmacy receives a lot of prescriptions with many items on it. On the Wednesday, I remember we had to deal with 100 prescriptions. Here teamwork is absolutely essential and I played a major role in collecting medication off the shelves according to what each prescription required. If I was struggling to find a certain medication, I would ask my colleagues and they would help me out, therefore making the process much quicker. It is important that you don’t make mistakes when collecting medicine, because if you give the wrong medication to a patient, then
Citizenship studies courework
Citizenship Coursework For my citizenship coursework I have decided in a group to do a school based activity and teach Mr kreachers year seven, set four mathematics class. The reason I have chosen this activity is because it relates really well to this citizenship studies course as it will enable me to make a positive contribution to fellow students at my school by helping them learn, it will also help me to improve my citizenship skills because I will be able to play an effective role in the activity and it will also help me to understand how other people learn. The following people will be taking part in this activity with me: sam, jessica and taylor. Our main aim whilst carrying out this activity is to teach the students who most probably do find the subject (maths) quite challenging and help them learn, by doing this we aim to motivate the students and try to teach them something that they find difficult- possibly in a fun way, this again links to citizenship because it shows that we care about other members of our community (school) because we will be spending our time helping the younger students with something that is an incredibly important part of their education. We will also like to be role models for the younger students. Before we actually do the activity it is important to now what topic the students find the most difficult and it is my job to find out this
