anzo Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Im currently supposed to be on work experience but they didnt give me anythin to do so i quit haha.I see you'll go far.What I got taught is this; if they don't give you anything to do...find something to do. Grab a brush and have a bit of a clean up, if you're walking around aimlessly, do it with a bit of paper in your hand and it looks like you're actually doing something slightly important.

Muel Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 (edited) Simps is at 6th form, but they kept him back a few years because he's a bit slow. We don't finish college until near the end of June! This is a good thing really, because we are all sooo far off finishing the work.

Revolver Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Lol, when I went to go on my work experience, one of the dudes I would be working with died.As a result, I spent the week at school. Initially, I did coursework. Later, they made me sort out cupboards, and then later still, I had to clean down surfaces in the chemistry room.Haha. f**king trinity.

Simpson Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Simps is at 6th form, but they kept him back a few years because he's a bit slow. Touche, too true unfortunatly, I'm not slow just an unwilling learner One guy i was workin with said at one point, he was ranked 7th in the world for bmx racing If I learnt anything about work experience it was that the nobodys in bike shops are unintelligent lying virgins. Who will say anything to impress 15 year olds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam-Addy A3 Posted May 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Lol, but the thing is, they lied to the school about what i had been doing, and they just shut me in a room by myself without a seat or anything to do Ah well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anzo Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 I've had people come to work on Work Experience before and it is the most awkward thing in the world...She was a grandaughter of one of the guys working on the factory floor who wanted work in IT. I could literally give her nothing to do due to so many reasons, either handling confidential infomation, her not knowing how to do it or simply me not trusting her to do it without cocking things up. But I still tried to show her things where ever I could or thought it may be useful. Needless to say, she ended up doing filing.Similar situation to those guys - they could either have you making cups of tea in the back room, away from all the dangerous tools and machinery or run the risk of you getting injured, damaging something or worse. I know its not the way it should be, but unfortunately thats the way it has to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tamness™ Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 I did my work experience at an architects firm and I got to do a bit of 3D modelling and what not, but most of the time I was just surfing the web and eating the chocolate cake they graciously provided.Tam.

Muel Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 My work ex was probably the best 2 education related weeks of my life, I was at a place doing IT technicianing, they were great because they thought up loads of things for me to do, like they were scrapping a load of broken computers and I had to help disposing them all but also had to make one good one out of all the broken ones, the ended up reinstalling the OS and re-using it. They also did some other funny things, like assign me to a technician who was shorter than I was when I was 14, and sending us off to pick up a photocopier from down the road with a trolley, we had to push it up the big hill and it was a right pain in the arse. Still fun though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoze Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 My work experience was f**king awesome, did a load of page layouts, photo editing, chillin' on the beach, articles, loooads of stuff.Highlight of all, met someone who was 2 time British junior biketrial champion back in the days of the original Monty's, rode my Pitbull in the offices/ kitchen and we took very long lunch breaks riding RE: school, we're being kept there with no study leave for exams, despite every other school getting it, so i've dodged all but one lesson asleep on the field today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may well just get you to make cups of tea. In fact, you're definately going to be getting the tea, whether or not you do anything else, I don't know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 school, man that was a long time ago! I left when I was 14/15 (that's 10 years ago!) Hated every second I was there!I did work experience at Orange Mountain bikes, that was ACE! I got to build up really nice bikes, paint them,watch Steve Wade design them in CAD, got to see the frames getting welded and heat treated and at lunch time we would nip out to the woods behind and ride some DH.
