Internship competition
 
Howdy y'all.
I entered a video competition during my internship at Procter and Gamble. I'd appreciate it if you could take (literally) ten seconds to:

Follow this link:

Scroll down to the video titled "WINTERNS FROM THE UK"

And "like" the video. You don't even have to watch it! That's all!


Thanks. The results are quite important for my professional standing but unfortunately, despite my video being the best, the competition is won purely by number of "likes" so it becomes a competition of how-many-friends-do-you-have-on-facebook...

Done.

... as an aside, I used to work for P&G (health and beauty care) and they were the worst employers I've ever worked for. Ended up being constructively dismissed.... so I made sure I gave them a VERY good reason to dismiss me! :-)

Thanks a lot guys and gals!

There were 5 people in our team, but three of them typically hopped on the backs of myself and another member. We did all the scripting, directing, almost all the acting, recruiting, making props, organising, acquiring tools, editing, and even with prompting the other members won't even publicise the video! Let alone the fact they've done nothing to contribute.

So, in essence, I've had to work very hard to make the video good, and I'm going to need all the help I can get from elsewhere because I can't rely on all but one teammate.

I support your endeavours butam privately appalled that internships (very precious and valuable positions) can be determined by something so crass as number of votes on a social networking site

I hope you do well though

Got the vote fella. Looks like you're well out in the lead last time i checked. And read some good feedback too.

Cheers guys! Get your spouses/children/dogs to do it too, takes seconds but every vote helps!

It's doesn't decide anything official, but there's a grudge between all the European interns that I'll never live down. I also looked quite silly filming this around site and would like my boss to have something to show for it!

^^^Yes! I've been trying to generate a link that simple! Thanks!

Re: Internship competition
 
Yo peeps, please share the link! We fear the competition ends at midnight Central European time (10pm tonight, in 15 minutes), and we're quickly getting demolished by the other teams. My friend and I have put so much work into this video and fear it's all going to go to waste in just 15 mins. Please share and help as much as you can!

Re: Internship competition
 
YYYYYYYEEEEAAAAAAYYYAAA!!! I'm so happy and proud of myself! Riccardo and myself (the other three did nothing) worked so hard. And I completely have you guys to thank, we won by tens of votes, and I'm sure posting here made that difference!

Thanks so much guys, especially you Owenski, not only helping but congratulating me. It instills such a nice feeling, I'm so happy now! Yaaay! Thank you all so much!
