The internship at PPL started just three days after the end
of my job at the City School.
This internship was a package full of
professional and social lessons. It was the first time when I observed people
from different cultural background working together.
The following lines are based on factual events and
observations.
I was assigned to the production department that worked
ceaselessly. We used to go to the wells in scorching heat and even during heavy
showers. The production department was free from time and space, and this was
its most interesting and distinguishing feature.
Sometimes we visited wells in evening and stayed there for
days. Sometimes we used to work for more than 12 hours ceaselessly.
The work was tough and the weather even tougher. Sometimes
we had to work in intense heat wearing thick coveralls, the coveralls used to
get damp due to perspiration. Hands and face also got sunburns, but it was
better than sitting at home and doing nothing. Mind also used to get exhausted
after performing herculean tasks.
There were also some moments for leisure activities. At
night I used to watch movies until I collapsed. Once we ate a lamb on well
site.
