I was required to check a sewerage design calculations. Ah...just checking...should be less complicated than the messy ordeal with the pipe drain, (in which I will not elaborate here. Too messy.)
Or so I thought.
Without any explanation, I ventured out on my own. Pumped up and full of spirit. Suddenly in the spreadsheet, it says "Refer to Table A1". Hmm. It is not known where this table originated from. It's just...there. Not losing faith in myself, I went to hunt for the said table and found it by accident. Carelessly stuck with a thumbtack on somebody's softboard. So there it is. I got it photocopied.
After that I studied the calculations for awhile. To make sense of it all. Apparently, I could only register the PE part. The rest of it? No idea. Okay, maybe I do have some inkling. A tiny little speck of inkling.
Now dear readers, you must be suggestively thinking right now : "Duh! You can just ASK..."
Yes, dear readers. I can hear your clever thoughts. But that is not how things work in my universe. I don't mind being labelled stupid. All interns are stupid (That's why internships are invented, you stupid brainless lowlife.) Ehem.*forgivethestronglanguagecoughcough* Yes, if only people's minds are less scheming/polluted/(enter-preferred-term-here).
Challenges. You get a lot of this throughout life. Even if you don't want to, when you look back, there's always plenty of 'em to ponder on.ignorance is bliss.
Life might be fun and games when you are young. How long do you expect the party to last? It is time to face the music. I find the whole idea of internship as...amusing. Not to mention thought-provoking as well. Apart from viewing life from a different perspective, I also learned many things.
Great many things.
Even things I would rather not know until I'm at least 80 years old.
