And so it ends!
Deja vu, blog-post wise. It wasnt long ago I blogged about starting the job - just two posts later, and the position is over.
I didnt get the sack, there's no case of mis-conduct. I resigned, and not on bad terms. The work placements tutor came in to have a meeting with me and my supervisor - turns out the placement just was not technical enough. The job was essentially that which an admin assistant could do ('admin', NOT as in running servers and keeping them up to date, but as in office admin) - essentially it was copying and pasting content into the new version of the site.
I have to admit ive had mixed feelings about this. Ok, so, the job was incredibly monotonous, but the staff there were just incredibly friendly. It is so far the only place, as far as I can remember, where I have been able to just say something and not think whether it is going to annoy someone, or not get a response. It was great there - my supervisor was just excellent - very easy to talk to, and very relaxed.
Saying goodbye sucked. One final tour of the office, but this time to say my goodbyes, before heading to the ICT entrance to hand over my keycard. Then one last goodbye to my supervisor before a very strange walk to the car, with the saddening thought that this is the last time I ever walk down this driveway.
