I probably won't be writing a journal for every single day from now on. Most days I'm just going to work, coming home, and eating a salami and spinach sandwich. It's not a particularly exciting life, but I'm loving it!
I found out that we're not supposed to work more than 32 hours per week, which is 8 hours a day. So I'm going to try to be better at leaving at 5 instead of 6:30 every day.
Today I almost pulled all my hair out at work, but spoiler alert, things worked out in the end. I built an "instant quote" feature for our website. It worked perfectly in all browsers, except Internet Explorer........
I hate IE. So much. It's evil. It hates my code. Grrr.
I finally got it fixed with a lot of help from my German boss. If you're bored and want to go to Forexfix.com, my baby is in the blue box that says "Calculate your offer now". It's so cool that I'm making actual contributions to the company on week 2 of my internship. That would never happen at a bigger company!
Anywho, expect slightly less frequent updates from now on. I'll try to only share if something exciting has happened! (And sorry for being so terribly behind!)
