Intern's guide to 10 important survival skills in office

1) Screen Filter needed (to use the reflection to watch out for supervisor coming from ur back)
2) Be familiar with keyboard shortcuts (can switch between windows quickly when supervisor comes)
3) Colourful desktop paper (makes ur games or chat list/window more concealed & less obvious at once glance)
4) Big thick book of excel programming on ur table (to act busy when there's a need to)
5) Open and keep lots of windows open (so that the chatting window is hard to differentiate)
6) Calender to count the days and keep track of time (checking for no. of days left, public holidays, leave days = important for keeping morale high)
7) Earphones to listen to 933fm and also mp3 from the comp, use thumbdrive to bring in ur own songs n store them in ur harddisk (reduce boredom)
8) Bring some toys (to play with them torture them when u r sian or bored)
9) Go out once a week for a 2hr lunch break to gaigai n walkwalk around n relax
10) Get ur seniors IA reports, copy them so that u minimize time over the weekend doing IA reports. Best is to do IA report during working hrs so that time at home can be dedicated for leisure.

Hehe, IA students how many of these survival skills do u haf? Haha i have everything except 4. =D but lots of refinery notes. hehe.
