Hi there WAWWD blog readers!
My name is Rosie Helson and I am undertaking a week’s work experience with the lovely people at We Are What We Do, based in the London office. As well as having a fabulously productive lunch time team meeting, which involved glamorous sushi eating (including a comment from me which amused all those present: ‘these soya bean pods are quite chewy and stringy aren’t they?’, prompting a chorus-like response ‘you are not supposed to eat them whole!’), today’s tasks have included:
Memorising the 130 actions in ‘Change the World for a Fiver’, ready for a test
Learning everybody’s names in the office (all 5 of them)
This relates to Action 18 ‘learn to be friendly in another language’, when I said hello to the Australian Eugenie (‘G’day mate!’) and to Dutch Nicole (‘Goiedag!’, pronounced ‘hoy-a-daak’). We are not quite at Action 41 yet: ‘hug someone’…perhaps tomorrow.
Reading Top Secret files on exciting new projects and campaigns.
I’m not sure there is a WAWWD Action for this, maybe I will make one up: ‘do something that makes you feel very special and important!’
Attempting to understand a meeting timetable and contributing to the meeting itself
This involved both Action 36 ‘Take time to listen’ and Action 46 ‘Use both sides of every piece of paper’ (I made a lot of scribbled notes)
Successfully gaining office entry using the techno-fab fob and writing a blog for the first time…here goes! Both in line with Action 32 ‘Do something you think you can’t do’.
I hope I haven’t committed the ultimate first-day sin with these tasks, Action 100, which is fail!
