I’ve been sitting in the basement in an office by myself at the Bethlehem Peace Center for the past 3 hours. I have no idea what I’m supposed to be doing. The Marketing Director showed me around the place, which is very cool, and then we went down to his office and he said, “So, your CV says you do some graphic design? What do you do?” Well, I’ve done a few websites and I like to play around with graphics. “Well, I think our website needs to be redone….so maybe that can be your project. Maybe we’ll work on some of this together. Here, let me copy the site for you onto this drive so you can look around it – and yes, you can work on this.”
So now I’m down in the basement, not interacting with anyone, except when I asked to get on the internet, because the woman I’m supposed to speak with about the site has not shown up yet. So I have no idea what I’m supposed to be doing. And the idea of working on another website after this one and this one…for the next 2 months…I don’t know if this is going to work out. Especially when the job description that I was preparing for was this: The need for Volunteers: to help during the summer camp, and through the center’s activities through the summer. Teaching Art and painting. Story telling, drama and theater and accompany children during field visits.
It will be interesting to hear other stories of other people’s morning experiences. So, I am left a little confused…quite bored…not excited about working on yet another website (because I think the one they have is just fine) and feeling frustrated…
