100+ Things Clean your desk

12. Clean your deskno one likes the weird kid that keeps old food around-it’s gross.

13. Ask to be LinkedIn friends with people you meet at work or are on a team with.

14. Avoid wearing Hawaiian shirts every day to work…unless of course that’s the look you’re going for. Expect a good nick-name out of it.

15. Unique facial hair is only appropriate if someone dares you (and your workplace is more laid-back) and not on the day of a meeting. Shave it off within a day.

16. Clean the structure table-or a common work area of your studio.

17. Ask for more work if you have nothing to do, other engineers/designers will certainly be happy for any help you can give them. Even small jobs are appreciated. Do not act like you are above making copies.

The Art of Interning

Doing what you love may seem like a far off dream when you’re in college. But it’s time to make school your passion. I started this blog to spread the word about how to get an internship, and how to keep your internship. Yes, it’s time to call that company you’ve been buying products from since you were 13, or introduce yourself to the captain of the cycling club. Who knows, maybe you want to ride your bike for life…did you know you can get paid to do that? Dream big kids. That seems to be the theme at RIT this year, and my goal here is to get you motivated to land an internship-one you’re going to love.
