Hi, I'm an intern, and a Mac. – Week One

by spenceranderson on June 2, 2009

Hey blogworld, I’m the Lessing-Flynn summer intern, as you probably know from yesterday’s post. I took the opportunity to Google my hometown, Bay City, Wisconsin. Be sure to check out the June 13th event on the calendar. (Caution: this may take some time to load!) Yes, I did grow up on a farm so I’ve been literally knee-deep in “it” before, so I’m somewhat prepared for any situation I may have to wade through.

They haven’t held back either, I think it has something to do with the “give and take” that Josh talked about. It’s been a lot of fun here already in the first week. Although I’m convinced several of them might be somewhat crazy, I think I’ll fit in just fine. And you won’t believe it, but Creed Bratton of the TV show ‘The Office’ sits one office down from me.

Separated at Birth?

To my knowledge they only have one PC in the building, which I couldn’t be more happy about. Anywhere you get to work on a Mac, with people who understand Mac, is a place where I want to be.

The first Tweet I got as I turned on my computer today said that China had blocked all Twitter usage. I’m convinced without it I wouldn’t be sitting here today writing this. That’s why I stress to so many of my friends to start Twittering, here’s how! I mean look where it landed me! (You should still use it.)

I was also completely shocked when I read that only 22 percent of 18-24-year-olds are using Twitter. I joined only 96 days ago and I’ll admit I didn’t even know what to do, but I’ve seen its benefits first hand. So for all you non-Twitterers, what are you waiting for? Just jump in and say something, who knows what will happen?

Well until next time, follow me on Twitter @spenceanderson, and feel free to leave a comment and some recommendations for me here. Check back again, because I guarantee this will be an interesting summer.

Well that turned out very nicely. And he does look an awful lot like Creed Bratton. Interesting…
