"It's cool I'll just set up a meeting for you with bloody Husein"

It's almost the end of my placement at Cockburn Integrated Health and tensions are running high as we're trying to complete all our assigned task before deadlines.

I've volunteered to continue working for Clory after I am set to finish my semester, as he would have a gap where no interns will be doing their placements until the new batch of interns are chosen. This means we could fall back behind on work.

One thing I learned to get used to is to travel distances for short meetings, as its usually the case when any meeting is set up with the CEO, the Strategic Projects Manager, and the IT technicians. At first I was expecting to have sit downs for at least an hour each, but i was pleasantly surprised to find that they were short, sweet and to the point.
As our CEO usually likes to toss around the word "bloody" every now and then, it gets pretty funny after a while. The last meeting we rediscussed the website layout, and he wanted the IT Technician, Husein's input, so he said "It's cool I'll just set up a meeting for you with bloody Husein" and it was the last straw for Sterwina and I, so we burst out laughing cause we couldn't help ourselves.

Things are finally taking shape at Cockburn Integrated Health, the second newsletter is in production, and lots of the health care providers in the building want to be a part of the next ones to be published. The website is also in its final touchup stages, after consulting the CEO and the IT technician to make a few tweaks and changes to the content and layout to the website, all that's left is to take more photographs of the board members, and action shots of patients with their doctors.

We've pretty much set up the initial mediums of promotion for CIH to then carry on and improve upon in the next few years to increase the number of visitors at the super clinic.
