About
The internship Presentation was a conclusion and reflection of what we completed in our internships over the summer. I interned at Bounty Music in retail and secritary work. I did their filing, kept track of invoices, responded to mail, helped restock inventory, and did some retail work.
21st Century SkillsThis assignment uses Financhial, Economic, and Buisness literacy through the money and math I had to keep track of. I helped ring up customers and created bank deposits which helped increase this skill. I learned how to make a bank deposit which is a very useful skill.
I learned different skill that will help me run a buisness in the future. I was able to learn how invoices, packing slips, merchant contracts, and employee records and insurance work which are all helpful to know during adult life.

Pros and ConsI am proud of how many hours I put into this Internship. I hit over 100 hours during the summer and I contunued to work here as a job even today. I have learned so much about instruments and how soundwaves work and I am happy with this.
This was a challenging assignment due to me having to step out of my comfort zone. I had to get used to working with coworkers and how you cannot treat them like friends but you need to be friendly in a work enviorment. The retail aspects were very hard for me. I am not good at talking to people I do not know, especially if I do not know the topic which forced me to get more comfortable asking for help.

What Could be Better |
Past and Future Learning |
I could have done some more reaserch at home to learn more about music and be more informed about the supplies I am selling. Trying to sell something you do not know what is does can be extremely difficult. I am learning guitar parcially for this job because customers have a tendancy to ask what you use and what you reccomend.

The Internships relates to every single time I have gone to a store and interacted with the employees as well as whenever I handled any type of money. This also correlates a lot with my childhood as my grandfather owns this store and I grew up in it.
this internship can be applied for when I take over the family buisness. I am planning on becoming an electrician, but I also want to be the sucessor and next owner of Bounty Music. I am working on learning everything I can from my grandfather to sucsessfully run a buisness.
