Last day at IMEC

Today was my last day at IMEC. Vincent had some problems with his laptop again which made me laugh. I repaired a Psion Teklogix 7535 which had a broken scanner engine. All in all I had a lot of fun with the colleagues. There was so many things to do that I was really busy in some days. All people in there were really cool and relaxed. The way to the company took me about 1,25 hours with the Luas and the Dublin Bus. Too bad that Jason is in his holiday at the moment else we would had gone into a pub for lunch this day.

Last Day at ECIT Institute

Today is my last day at ECIT. I’ am a bit sad about this fact, but I’m really looking forward to go home. Yesterday I brought a few cakes and brought it in. Richard Ruddock (IT-Manager) was very happy about it. We had a few good conversations and we were talking about my future. So Today I finish my projects, got the last signatures for the europass and the last signature for training certificate. I had a really brilliant time here at ECIT Institute and I felt overwhelmed by the hospitality of this Institute. I can’t tell you how often I laugh oneself to tears because Richard was making one of his jokes or told us something about his kids! Everyone had so much patience with me and was so helpful! I learned so much and I could improve myself more as I had expected. At the end of it all the only thing I can say is THANK YOU!

Last day at work

Finally, the last day at work is done. I just managed to get the paperwork signed and made some more tests with my testing environment. Unfortunately, we couldn’t manage to set up the SCCM in the live system (NIPACS). Today, we went out for lunch and had a last talk about my time at Steria. Afterwards, I got the rest of this day off.

Go karting

Yesterday, I went with Matt, Barry and some other guys to a indoor go-kart track. Matt organized this event some days ago and said, that they are doing this once a year. So I was in luck to be here during this event. It’s just the same procedure as in Germany..You have to watch a film, telling you what to do an what not to do, afterwards, a guy tells you the whole story again and finally you get your helmet and your gloves. Unfortunately I only made the second last position but nontheless, I had a lot of fun. A power assisted steering would have been great, that kart felt like a tank on the track. After the race, we got our racing analysis and got rid of the helmets and gloves.
