Chapter 3: First week of IA and more!

Woohoo, I'm into the 2nd week of my internship! Basically, I'm still learning about the ERP software the company uses and how each of the modules increase the efficiency of the company. It is quite interesting to know softwares like these form the backbone of decent sized companies and the way it works. Thats all for IA stuff. The study component is starting soon, I look forward to meeting more people. As for now, let me share with you the exploits of my 1st week of IA as well as 1st weekend after work.

This is gate no 1 of the 外高桥 free trade zone which my company is located in. Unfortunately, we alighted at the wrong end of the place on the 1st day of IA and have to take cab to the company. This free trade zone is huge, the cab travelled about 10km before we reach the company.

So, we arrive at Univac Shanghai! The place where we will be spending next 6 months working as interns. Its located in the free trade zone which is something like Tuas in Singapore. The place is filled with lots of warehouses.


This is my work desk! Looks cosy right? (It will be more cosy if the room temperature is higher) Behind the window holds the main server of the company. Originally I didnt think I would have this desk. But the previous IT personnel left the company, so I was lucky to take over his table.
