First week at work 26. - 30. October 2015

My first week at work.

It's located outside the Bamberg in the village Bischberg.

It takes me 45 min to get there and 35 min to get home, I'm so lucky to have a bike, it helps a lot. Work always started and ended at 17.00, except Friday it ended at 15.00. 

I have met my boss Mr. Toth and other workers, Mr. Reimche and Mr. Aßmann. We work in the Mr. Thot own house; so he have work place downstairs, and he and his family live upstairs.
Mr. Toth cannot speak English fluently, so Mr. Reimche is the one who

"helps" me. They gave me my own workplace, which is nice. 
To my surprise Mr. Reimche lives almost across the street from my house, so we ride home together.

My work space

This week I have installed XAMPP(X(any of four different operating systems), Apache, MySQL, PHP and Perl)) and WordPress computer that I was given. Also accompanied Mr. Toth to several places, like orphanage, were we changed the RAID and then on the second morning cheeked RAID:s work state via computer. Also went with Mr. Toth to the school; they had problem connecting to the internet. We were there until the end of the workday.
Mr. Reimche disassembled one old computer and told me to put it back together. After that he said that I need to install software. Installed Debian 8; tried to install LAMP(Apache, Mysql, Php) on computer, that I would be able to install OsTicket on it later on. Had some problems with doing that.. I have managed to install osTicket, but not on Linux, like I wanted, but on Windows.
Mr. Reimche was "building" a gaming PC for a client, it was really interesting to watch.
Mr. Toth had showed me how to plug wires in to the internet socket, there was two ways to do it:

• More older one, but cheaper.
• Newer version and simpler, but more expensive.

On Thursday talked with Mr. Schröder about the opportunity to stay at Administrator24 for one more week; mentioned that Mr. Toth wasn't against it. Mr. Schröder said that he would talk to them.

On Friday Mr. Schröder informed me that I can stay for one more week at Administrator24, I'm happy, I like it here. Mr. Toth said that he doesn't mind if I want to make my own projects (like installing osTicket), but he wants me to make a website for a company named MalTroBau - GmbH, with WordPress(an actual website that he can use and sell). I got material, pictures, text and other. I have made a bit on Friday, but will continua next week. The whole thing excites me! So, for now I have left my Debian 8 project. 

I decided to go to the Bamberg old city on Friday, because the workday ends earlier than on the other days. 

So far I can say that I really like it here in Bamberg. I like the place where I live, like the weather, and the German people, they are so friendly and social, love it.

Saturday and Sunday 24.-25. October 2015

It was really "quiet" weekends.

In the evening on Saturday came the flat owner - Andreas, he brought few things and took some of his stuff from the small office upstairs. 

Also on Sunday I went to look on my future job place. I need to be there tomorrow at 9 am, and it will be better if i don't get lost. Like GoogleMaps have told me it's about 40 min trip. Not to bad, it's actually good, the biggest part of the trip is near the lake so it's very beautiful.

The tiers on my bike is are almost empty, don't know how to solve this problem. Tried the Gas station, but they only have pumps for car...

So it was my first week here. I'm pretty exited about future 8 weeks.

Tuesday and Friday 20. - 23 October 2015

Tuesday 20. October 2015

Went to the school, have meet Mr. Richter, he showed me school; he introduced me to Mr. Schröder, who will be my "boss" at the school, he also made a small excursion and introduced to me more school staff. He also gave me a laptop, so I could work on it.

The school

I also got a bike from Mr. Richter. After that we went to the city to find me sim-card for my phone. We got the card in the Aldi shop and Mr. Richter called Mr. Udo and told him, that three other girls also can get the same cards.

I'm very glad that I got a bike, it helps a lot.

After I got the sim-card we went back to the school. I met Mr. Shröder and he told me a bit what I'm about to do in the school. Basically I will spend the rest of the week at school, and after that I will go to some company, after that I will return to the school again; probably will spend some time at school, and then again will go to some company. We will see in the future how it goes.

Other girls also got the bikes, they will pay 1€ per day, so 60€ for whole stay here.

Everyone were very nice and friendly. =)

Wednesday 21. October 2015

Went to the school, it started at 8.30. It isn't so far from the flat, about 2 km.

Mr. Schröder gave me a task to find out how osTicket works and install it on VirtualBox, so particularity it shouldn't be hard, but still a had some problems and didn't manage to install it.

Work room

After the school went to by some food, and get a bit lost...

It wasn't scary at all to be there, I'm very exited about this opportunity that I'm given.

Also Mr. Schröder gave me a key from doors (work-, teachers- and toilet room), that I could walk around the school without him, because he isn't always around.

When I finally got home, was to tired to walk around the city.

Thursday 22. October 2015

I can't take the key from school, so each morning I take it from secretary, and in the evening give it back to her.So I got the key and went to Work room.

The whole day I was alone.

All four of us decided to go out  to the city. There was a lot of people, like RALLY a lot of people. The beer we tasted wasn't good.

Outside the "main" crowd

Friday 23. October 2015

Got to school - got the key. Went with Mr. Schröder to the teachers room, he needed me to run a update on all of teachers laptops, and also to change some other staff to (hard to enplane). Basic stuff, which needed to be done.

Doing updates on teachers computers

So after lunch he told me that whole next week I will spend at the company Administrator24, and I can decide:

Stay at the Administrator24 for two weeks, or come back to school after one week, and do some other stuff. 

For now we agreed on one week.

The company Administrator24 is 9 km from the place where I live, it's outside the Bamberg; with my speed it's about 40 min to get there and 40 to get back home.

After that came Mr. Righter and took me to one IT class, with the students who are on their second year. It was okay, they did the same things we did last year (I also was a second year student).

On my way home got to the bakery and bought some...

At evening we walked a bit around the city center. 

Saw a really beautiful sun set today

The day when it all started - Monday 19. October 2015

The flights itselves were nice. We took two planes from Helsinki till Munchen and from Munchen till Nuremberg, after that we took train and buss, than flat owner Andreas piked us up on his minivan and drew us to the flat, in which we were gonna live for next two months. Also on the train station we were meet by Mr. Udo he will be Emilian, Saijan and Miinan supervisor in the school.

I didn't knew much about my future on-the job-learning place. Mr. Udo told me that tomorrow I need go to different school than three other girls, and meet Mr. Richter, that he will tell me more about what gonna happen next.

The flat itself is enormous. It's two-floor flat, with two bedrooms and bathroom upstairs, and kitchen, balcony, living room and small toilet downstairs. I'm about to live in the living room, Emilia

will be alone and Saija and Miina will be together.

My room/living room

We went to the store next to our flat, and when we got back we met a young woman in the elevator, she was really friendly.

We live on highest floor, so for us opens amazing view from our windows!!
