WORK IMMERSION ( week 1-2)

WEEK 1

Monday (February 26,2024)

Today is my first day in my immersion, and I don't know what to do since it's my first time. I felt nervous, frustrated, anxious, and somehow happy because I'll unlock new experience that will help me to practice new things for the preparation in the future. We arrived late because it's already 9 beyond in the morning, as we entered in the office surprisingly the employees welcomed us with a smile on their faces. They gave us time to introduce ourselves, they asked us what the reason was why we choose the strand humss, and what we are after 5 years from now. We answered it professionally since we're from humss student of course we're fluent in English. After that, we started the work, and they gave us a bundle of folders that needed to encode in the computer, it's kinda tiring but it's our job to do it without complaining because it's for our own good, who am I tho to complain? Time passes so fast we made it on time, and we just got home at 5 Pm.

Tuesday (February 27, 2024)

It's my second day. I am very excited because we have a lot of tasks to be done on time. As I entered in the office the cold temperature made me nervous, seems like I want to go home already. honestly, it's a bit tiring because they're giving us time to time bundle of folders, that's our part which is to encode every detail what's in the folders with 30+ pages, that's how tiring it was but again who am I to complain? We just made things done and we've made it. Then another folder just came that needed to be encode, that's our cycle in work, it's encoding since it's an agency so you must expect that there's a lot of applicants. It's already 5 pm so we got home.

Wednesday (February 28, 2024)

It's our third day on duty, no more expectations on what will gonna do next because we already know what we're going to do after we enter the door and put our bags and then back to the things what we did yesterday. We've encoded it so fast, and then we've finish it early, I think it's around 10, we're so happy because they didn't give us another batch bundle of folders, so we rest but after a few minutes they called us and tell to clean the cabinet. So as a worker it's our responsibility to do on what's our bosses wants us to do. After cleaning the cabinet, they gave us another tasks. it's not encoding but it's about scanning, scanning all those folders what we've encode since the first day. We just complain silently to ourselves because we know that it's for our good things to practice our skills, we're humss student of course we don't complain personally.

Thursday (February 29,2024)

What to expect? of course we're going to continue scanning all the folders since we didn't finish it yesterday. it's morning but we are tired already because we're going to scan all the folders with 30+ pages using our phones, we will enter the office fully charge but we're going home low battery. it’s so draining but it's for our own grades. So, we consistently scanned all the folders, the three of us just laughing because this is not what we're expecting. Did you know that scanning is more tiring than encoding. As we are doing things, we just laugh because of how tiring it was. complaining to ourselves every minute, it's normal to complain to yourself, but what's not normal is complaining to your bosses because of giving lots of task. So, it's already 5 we didn't finish it so we're going to finish it tomorrow. Another day of scanning.

Friday (March 1, 2024)

As we entered in the office early in the morning, we are so excited to scan, we are excited to finish it all cause tomorrow is rest day because it's Saturday. we already want to rest so after we put our bags we then start to scan. If all of you think that we're not happy in our immersion, we're happy, and thankful because in this part it will give us realization on that how tiring to work. Yes, we keep on complaining to ourselves but we're not staying in the complaining, we stayed on how fun and enjoyable it is. Tho. yes, it's kind a draining but somehow it helps us that it's okay to complain but you keep on doing the task. Even though the employees there they keep on complaining because it's so tiring as the fact of, they'll call the applicant individually for the orientation, they'll going to answer all the calls since it's an agency so it's more on like that. And since it's our first time so we're adjusting things.

Week 2

Monday (March 4, 2024)

It's our second week and last week of our immersion. We greet them a good morning, it's our routine every morning to greet them like that cause it's a sign of respect as a student. Also, as part of our routine since the beginning is we're going to clean the office before starting to do the task. Last Friday we've done scanning all the folders, so they gave us another task to do which is an answer sheets it's an IQ test for the applicants but during their orientation last week they forgot to answer it, so we're assigned to answer it instead. you know what we didn't complain about the first time. it has a lot of answer sheets to answer but we didn't complain to ourselves at all. it's because we've realized that despite how tiring and draining it is, just enjoy, and have fun doing it.

Tuesday (March 5, 2024)

We only have 3 days left to nurture and spend time with them. we know that we will going to miss this office and our bosses too. It's Tuesday and they have an orientation for 13 applicants, it's a whole day orientation, so as their assistant we arrange chair for them to have a comfortable seat. we give them an application forms, and we even photocopy all their papers since it's a must to have a double copy. I was assigning by it, I just their cause there’s no more chairs for us to seat so as they're started, we all are listening of what the HR have said to them, by looking the HR it's so impressive because she had a good word and motivate the applicant on what to do's and not to dos in work. I really, I admire her as the fact of she so actually good. After photocopying the papers, they told me to laminate all the ID's. so, I did it and gave It to them after. Time passes they done the orientation, and we got home after doing the task.

Wednesday (March 6, 2024)

There's not many things to do, so we just sat and think of what we're going to do since this coming Friday is our last day of our duty. The three of us thinking on what to give as a show of gratitude. we are so actually Thankful to them because despite how they gave us a lot of tasks, we appreciate them. We have a lot of realization. first, as what the HR said that you need to be mature in your work, you need to be optimistic all the time, you need to be hardworking, and just complain always just make sure that you've done it all the to do's every day. it's so fun seeing them every day because they have the same humor that will make you laugh. It's kind a intimidating at first but once you already know them, you'll going to tell yourself it's not what you’re thinking about them. they're like our mothers in the office, while working it feels like we have 6 mothers in 1 home. I'm so happy having them.

Thursday (March 7, 2024)

It's another another, another batch of applicants for orientation. what we did yesterday is the same on what we're supposed to do today. arranging chairs, photocopying papers, laminating ID's, and I forgot to mention we also assign to give them their uniforms for work, including the shoes, t-shirt, and so on. We're so productive, we are productive since the first day of our immersion. it's kind a sad cause we're going to miss this office; it became part of our journey. For our lunch they prepare something to eat. they cooked monggo and buy foods for us. we are so thankful and forever grateful because they did that to us. after cooking, we ate lunch then we watched tv. It's already 1: pm so we started working. it's the continuation for the orientation so we sat there and just listen to them. Time passes so fast then we got home around 5 in the Afternoon.

Friday (March 8, 2024)

Yey! it's our last day, by entering the office we felt so sad cause today will be our last day of our duty, last day as a worker, last day of our immersion. By remembering the time we're they welcome us whole heartedly, teaching us, and taking care of us while we're at work. they treat us as their daughters. It's feels so home. We're going to miss the office and we're going to miss them too. There are no tasks to do so it's not so draining, and tiring this day, we cherish the time left for us to bond. in our lunch they prepare again something to eat so they cook linat-ang baboy. again, we're thankful of them. We prepare also for them. So yesterday we bought a glass and a towel to give each of them. After work where were about to go home, we gave them the presents. looking at their faces their so happy. in our gifts we add up something and it's a letter for telling them how Thankful we are every day by having them as our second mom. Thank you so much Ma'am, for the effort you put unto us. See you around and thank you so much.

Work immersion (weeks 1-2)

(Assigned at Talisay Police station)

Today marked the beginning of my work immersion at the Talisay police station. As I stepped through the doors, a mix of excitement and nervousness flooded my senses. The morning kicked off with an orientation session, where I was introduced to the various departments within the station and briefed on safety protocols.

During the orientation, we had the chance to introduce ourselves and even showcase our talents, which, I must admit, was a bit embarrassing yet enjoyable. It was a great icebreaker and helped in breaking down any initial barriers between us interns and the police personnel.

The staff and officers were incredibly friendly and approachable, which helped alleviate some of my nervousness. They shared valuable life lessons and experiences from their time in service, which I found both enlightening and inspiring.

Overall, it was a productive and enlightening first day, and I'm eager to see what the rest of the two weeks have in store.

"Immersed in Growth: My Outsource It Agency Journey"

Entering Outsource It Agency as an emersionist was like stepping into a whirlwind of challenges. Not only was I tasked with new responsibilities, but I also had to navigate through a sea of different attitudes, behaviors, and approaches.

One particular day stands out vividly in my memory. I woke up feeling unwell and had to be absent from work. In a moment of vulnerability, I found myself in tears, pouring out my frustrations to our class president when she inquired about my well-being at the workplace.

The following day, upon my return, I was pleasantly surprised to find myself back to my usual self, wearing a bright smile that was reciprocated by those around me. It was a moment of realization that resilience and positivity can triumph over adversity.

Despite hearing cautionary words from classmates who had previously worked at the Agency, I couldn't help but fall in love with everything about my new job. It was a testament to the power of immersion in real-life experiences.

Reflecting on my journey, I've come to understand that true learning extends beyond the confines of textbooks and classrooms. It requires an open mind, a willingness to embrace different perspectives, and the humility to revise our opinions when confronted with new knowledge.

My experience at Outsource It Agency has taught me that there's always room for growth and exploration. It's not just about my feelings in a specific moment, but about remaining open and observant as we seek to immerse ourselves in new experiences. After all, it's through these experiences that we truly learn and grow.

Work Immersion

April 2 - April 17, 2024

Before the work immersion, I'm nervous and excited at the same time, and I hope to learn new things while working there. I also want to develop my communication skills and overcome my social anxiety. Not only those two, but also learn new skills and knowledge that will help me develop. I'm kind of scared about it since I really don't have work experience, and I'm lacking the confidence to talk and communicate with others. But it is also an opportunity to overcome my weaknesses.

During our work immersion, the batch 2 was the one who informed us of what to do. I was nervous since I'm not really good at communicating and was overthinking that I might mess up. But I managed to do the task that was given to me and was able to communicate with the people that we served. I gained some knowledge about our workplace, and I'm also happy that somehow I developed my communication skills.

Overall, there's challenges that I've encountered, but I feel relieved that I managed to overcome them, and by this experience, I'm no longer ignorant of the real world outside the school.

MY WORK IMMERSION EXPERIENCE IN COMELEC-TALISAY

My first day of immersion was started on February 28, it was full of challenges as our orientation, as well as our first day, was on the same day. We were oriented by one of the supervisors. We were tasked with different areas and alternately did the given task. From querying the people to assisting them in filling out the forms.

the second day of immersion was the day when we started to apply the learnings we learned on the first day, we started to get to know the assigned areas and their corresponding task.

On the third day of our work immersion, we were asked to decide which areas we were most comfortable with. As a group, we communicate and decide which one should be in the areas they excel in.

The rest of the days were just the same task but in different places as the Comelec where we worked was on their satellite mission, where they would go to different places in Talisay based on the request of each of the barangay captains.

I have learned a lot of things by doing the work immersion, it practices my intrapersonal skills. From dealing with different kinds of attitudes to applying work ethics at the right time and the right place. I am grateful that I was able to experience this program as it made me realise how important it is to communicate for you to understand each other because the relationship of the colleague can affect the outcome of each individual's work.

For ten days, I work at BBES finance office, it was such a great experience. I learned a lot and have fun too.

Every day, we started are day by cleaning the room were we stayed in and this was the finance office and the ICT room.

Every day, I always saw how busy finance office is. They always doing something about school expenses and I'm amazed knowing that they work with money but they handle it well.

Working at BBES finance office taught me what their job really is, they say it's not easy but they taught me how to properly do it. It really takes patience and you shouldn't be careless knowing that it's about money.

I am very thankful to maam Trassy and sir Jodi who always teach us how to properly do the jobs they ask us to do, they never stress us and they are so much fun to be with. When we are together they always makes us laugh, they don't pressure us, and always say just relax and chill.

WORK IMMERSION EXPERIENCE IN COMELEC-TALISAY

The eighty hours of work immersion are a valuable and worthwhile learning opportunity. Being able to work at the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) has been an honour for me, as it has given me information, ideas, and insights.

I started my work immersion at the COMELEC on February 28. I felt both anxious and excited as I came through the doors. After we introduced ourselves, Sir AR said, "What are your expectations for working at Comelec?" After giving us an introduction on the rules and regulations, Ma'am Annalou split us into our designated roles. Even though the short period of time, it was nevertheless a very significant time. The training increased my self-confidence and laid the foundation for me to one day be a valuable employee. Through experience, I developed my interpersonal and communication skills. being able to manage and address various problems regarding their documents and records at COMELEC. I learned from the experience how important it is to know and enjoy what you do. As a student, all I can do right now is find inspiration, embrace the direction I'm going, and give everything I do my all while maintaining a positive mindset.

I'm grateful that I had the opportunity to experience all of this during my short work immersion experience. Although I struggled with some of it, I appreciated getting a taste of real life situations. It gave me additional insight into the working world and taught me how to interact with others.

"TULA PARA SA AKING PANGARAP AT SARILI"

Ilang beses mang muntikang sumuko

Aking pinaglaban upang ako'y lalago

marami mang isinakripisyo na luha, pawis at dugo

Hindi susuko upang makamit ang gusto

na patungo sa pangarap na ito

kahit ako'y problemado

dahil sa mga pagsubok na mahirap italo

nandito naman ang pamilya na nasa tabi ko

at ang dahilan ng pangarap na ito

At kapag ako'y kinakabahan

Ang panginoong diyos lamang ang aking sandigan

dahil siya lamang ang makapangyarihan

na tutulungan ako at babantayan

patungo sa aking pinaghirapan

Kailangan natin itong paghirapan

upang ang pangarap ay makamtan

tama ba ako, kaibigan?

Huwag din nating kalimutan

ang ating mga kasamahan

noong tayo'y wala pang kaalaman

Ang pangarap ay layunin sa buhay

na kapag pinaghirapan ay tulay

patungo sa ating tagumpay

kaya ang pangarap ay ingatan nating tunay.
