The Pfizer Experience


People have been pushing me for this post. So, here I am at Pfizer Global R & D.Doing my internship for three months.It's a very welcome change from the graduate life.Here is how I spend a week day.

I get up as early as 6 in the morning.Get ready for the office in a slightly more professional way -No more Rock band Tshirts for me or T-Shirts with messages/Torn and Faded jeans.I think I should get a trophy for this.I walk to my office in about half an hour.The work I am doing is mostly experimental work,again a change from my PhD work which is mostly simulation.So, I spend my time mostly away from my computer.And,I like it ! The work is going better than I or my supervisor had anticipated -Full Marks to me :) I leave office at around 5 in the evening. My roomies are two mechanical engineers from purdue university.One of them has an Indian food fetish so he cooks it everyday for me :) (I also cook sometimes :D) We eat and then talk about random stuff and the day is over.

Overall,My randomness in life has decreased. I hope to carry some of it back to Gainesville,Florida(I so miss it !)
