Working in companies


During the winter holiday and the May holiday, I used the time to work for two companies which let me learn a lot through the job and let me know the real working environment in the future.
My work was to be the secretary in the manager’s office. Actually the work was a little different from the formal secretaries; I did not have the formal training. However I tried my best to do everything, answering the phone calls, made the files in order, etc.
I think I am organized enough to divide the files, but the fact nearly made me mad. The files, envelops, newspapers, information were everywhere on the office desk and mixed together. The several folders and binders stayed in the big bookcases with dust, and the inside files were mixed as well. I really felt dizzy when I saw the untidy scenes, but my mission was clear enough. As a result I began to plan where to start first and how. I decided to divide the files on the desk first. I used the dividing ways given by the manager to divide. The necessary skills were quick judgment, clear thought, and fast movement. I divided more quickly as time passed, and my hands were full of dust, too. When I finished the files on the desk with exhausted body, I discovered a problem that the binders and folders in the bookcases had mixed files as well, so I should divide the binders and folders first or I can not put the divided files in them. It was a files’ traffic jam, eventually I successfully finish everything. However, the whole work was not finished in one day, so I was enlightened that everything should be done with a little but careful steps everyday.
Because I worked in the company, I gave an advice from my work that the binders and folders were nearly used out for files were too many. They accepted it willingly.
I found another challenge for me during the work. I used to sleep late in the morning and hated to get up early. However during my working days, I had to get up early in the morning. It was a bitter process that I conquered to insist, to be more specific, it was a process to struggle with myself.
The company who I worked for a mild and cooperated group, everyone had his or her own work and they finished very well that assured others also can finish work perfectly. However the real responsible worker in files room did not work well, I heard that he was lazy and did not make the files in order at all.
With the first experience, the second volunteer work I did was much more efficient, although the work was the same.
I think the work has something good to affect me, such as it can develop my organization. Because whatever I will learn in the university, without the organization and patience I cannot have an excellent mark although I have the talent. The second benefit was the cooperated spirit, human cannot live alone in this world and the work especially needs it, so if I can do my work well and cooperate with others at the same time that will be my unique ability.
