Week 8 – Project is Almost Complete
This week was my probably the most tedious but also most enjoyable of all the work that I did for Tree Logistics. I continued the new assignment my boss had assigned to me, focusing on damage reports and tracking damages. I spent Monday – Wednesday indexing damages, and incident reports by the driver. This was…
Week 7 – A new project
The week started slow. I went into work Monday and had a fairly productive day. I was finally able to get some time with my boss. The meeting did not go how I had expected it to go. I decided that I had made enough progress on my current project and that I should pivot…
Week 6 – My Boss Returns

We were given time to introduce ourselves and…

My first full week in Berlin was extremely eventful. Fortunately, I have my hour long train rides each way to unwind and relax. I still can’t believe that the train is empty when I get on, fills up as it goes through the city, and is practically empty by the time I get to my…
Week 1
My time in Berlin has been great so far. Since I arrived late Tuesday evening, I have been exploring Berlin almost nonstop. My first three days involved touring some of Berlins most notable sites, German language lessons, and familiarizing myself with the city. To be completely honest, even after the three German classes my knowledge…
