Week 10

My tenth week working at the Bureau of Economic Analysis showed me what my future at the organization would look like. The only work that I had left to do was to complete and correct the process maps for Travel and Training. Laura and I decided to split this task between the two of us. Laura said that she would start making revisions to the Training Process while I mapped Travel. I spent the rest of the week creating the Travel map, guide, and overview by myself. There were two major breaks that took me away from my work. First, you popped up to my office to pay everyone a visit, which we all appreciated. Second, Brian hosted an ice cream social for all of the interns in the BEA. Brian brought ice cream cake as well as two buckets of vanilla ice cream. The ice cream social was a major success, giving me the opportunity to talk to my fellow interns from the other departments. Unfortunately, this was the last week for most of the interns before they left the District to start school in the Fall. After I returned from the social, I put the finishing touches on the Travel process map and its respective guide and overview.
