Job Shadowing

I was job shadowing Ann Vasko that works at SAS. She picked me up at my house at 8:40 and we drove to SAS building C first to go to the cafeteria. I got a Mushroom, Cheese and Turkey Sausage omelet. I got some water with it as well. Ann got another Omelet but instead of the sausage she got bell peppers in it. After that we got back in the car and she drove me around the buildings giving me a tour. The tour she gave me ended at around 10:00 and we went into her office on the 6th floor to show me where she worked and what she did. She had a big TV that she could hook up an HDMI cable to so that she could see on a larger screen. She had 2 monitors and she taught me about ORION for about 50 mins and then we had to leave to go to a 1 hour meeting. It was very interesting, the meeting started at 11:00 am and there were 9 people including me there. They talked about how in Europe in 2 years or so they are putting in place a law that requires people to give them permission to use their info for data, or contact updates, etc. They have a huge program that has everybody's data and they are trying to find a way to bypass the law or delete all the contacts in time. Apparently there are 4 million contacts that they have in total. The meeting was somewhat boring but bits and pieces here and there i found interesting. I payed attention mainly to the numbers and statistics of what they were talking about. The meeting ended at around 12:00 pm and then after that we went to got lunch in the same building (T) because we didn't want to go outside because it was cold and rainy. For lunch i got some BBQ with "Cowgirl" beans which is basically like baked beans but with some more vegetable or onions or something. It was very good and we sat with Ann's employees that worked for her. We talked about different topics here and there like retirement, school, jobs that are available, etc. It was all very interesting that i lost track of time and before i knew it, it was around 1:15. My dad was coming to pick me up at 1:30 so i would have time to get to DriversEd on time. We put our trays away on the tray belt and they cleaned it up for us because apparently SAS is extremely lazy. The link to the SAS website is www.sas.com, that's literally it. My dad came to pick me up like 10 minutes later and i thanked Ms. Vasko and left. So overall i wouldn't want to work there because i don't want a job of being in an office all day working on the computer 24/7. It was a good experience and i would go again just to see a different type of work within SAS that isn't on the computer in an office all the time.
