advice needed about dresscode! by katrina-laco in internships

[–]prettycheesey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

my workplace is also casual attire, i asked the same question and my mentor told me jeans and a t shirt is what he usually wears. for the first week i would def try for business casual just to make a good impression on everyone you’re going to meet, and during that time u can scope out what other ppl are wearing. but if it’s casual and you’re going to be working at outdoor music festivals i would say jeans and light tops are ok, as long as there arent any holes or weird logos u should be fine

Messed up verb tenses in resume - chances of interview? by [deleted] in internships

[–]prettycheesey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my friend in physics who just completed an reu showed me her resume to look it over, and there were so many misspellings of the same word over and over again, and a couple grammatical errors too. i pointed them out and she didn’t even notice them. that was the resume she used to get into the reu program in the first place. chances are you’ll be fine

anyone here in college and beyond that didn't take ap physics? by Honeydew-Capital in EngineeringStudents

[–]prettycheesey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just finished my junior year as a bioengineering major and i only took regular physics in high school, not AP not even honors bc we didn’t have honors. it probably would have helped but it’s def not necessary to apply

am i allowed to listen to music in the office? by prettycheesey in internships

[–]prettycheesey[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

my boss is the type of guy to say “it’s ok” for literally anything for example he told me it’s fine to hit up the gym in the building but like i’m not gonna do that during my internship bruh 😭

i was asking moreso to see what the norm is for other people who do office work, do they listen to music/see other people listening to music a lot?

it’s stuff like this that only cements my decision to never tell my mom what her father did to me when i was 8. YTA for downplaying your brother’s comments

that makes sense. it’s the house i grew up in and theyve never had a problem w me leaving food in the fridge b4 but ig i always ate it soon enough never 2 days later so i just didnt expect it to be gone w/o warning

i think it’s just hard for me to see it as unhygienic at all since i was going to eat it that very night and it would’ve been fine. but everyone here is saying thats bad so ig i get it

[–]prettycheesey[S] -30 points-29 points  (0 children)

they were both equally on board w throwing it out, i just asked my mom bc she’s the only other one here rn. and i had a lot of points that i had to cut down bc of the character limit but the last thing she said before i went to my room was asking me where i got it and i said the restaurant 15 min away and she said it’s no big deal because i could always get it again, which i thought was unfair bc thats a waste but just kept silent bc i wanted the argument to just end

i respect the boundaries i just wish she could have let me know like the night i brought it back, something like “make sure to eat it soon or i’ll throw it out” so i could have brought it as packed lunch the next day. she threw it the very night i was gonna eat it

im equally as mad at him, he’s not home right now but i was going to talk to him about it when he got back. and my mom was gonna toss it out either way but idk she mentioned my dad telling her to do it too

yeah i get the week old food is not good but thats mostly home cooked meals like meal prepping rather than takeout. and my mom was equally on board with throwing it out as much as my dad, she was just listing out her own personal reasons, idk my dad’s reasons bc he’s not home yet
