The Intern, continued

Ms L., the intern working with me this month, has been an absolute delight. She is a hard worker and a quick learner. Programs and techniques that I struggled mightily to comprehend, She masters in a moment.

I am so glad that I said yes to Her request to intern here.

Last night, at the Board meeting, we publicly recognized Her and gave Her a certificate of appreciation. She wasn't expecting that. She certainly deserved it.

I hope that the experience that She has gained here will help crack the door for a really good job for Her once She completes college.

The Intern arrives

All my misgivings have died and gone to misgiving heaven.

The young Lady who will intern in my office over the next few weeks is competent, articulate and very ready to get to work.

It feels good to know that I will be able to help Her move forward in Her career path, as someone once did for me. I appreciated that and now it's my turn to reciprocate. Now, if I can just learn to pronounce Her name: Starts with "l" but doesn't look like it sounds.
