Derooted Reflections2
Posted In Blog,commentaries
I am going to miss Derooted. After completing my internship I was sad that I will no longer work alongside the people I met there. Everyone’s personality was unique, but the shared qualities of honesty, creativity, and humour, as well as a down to earth and collaborative spirit. It combined to create an amazing work atmosphere that is hard to find, but one I will definitely look for in future workplaces.
The internship also gave me real and valuable understanding of the business and the many aspects of design. I interacted with clients, delivered on deadlines, collaborated with co-workers, and carried ideas from inception to production. I also gained unexpected skills — like using the tablet as a substitute for a mouse, and coming up with sales pitches for random items around the office at a moment’s notice. I am looking forward to using all my new skills and experiences in future — although I hope I will never have to sell a certain whistle again!
Thank you everyone! I will miss you!
