The Day I Didn’t Win

Kendra Peterson is an intern in the Documents & Design department. She shares her recent experience at an Intern Lunch & Learn.
I walked through the Durables Department with a sponge-like mind, learning all the company had to offer with items such as cook ware, air filtration systems, and water purification. The presenters did an excellent job in the description of their projects. Such a good job, that when a raffle was announced, I knew I just HAD to win.
I entered the room with a smile on my face as I eyed all of the glorious products just waiting to be raffled off.
My eyes opened wide as they announced the first winner. I looked across the table at an elated winner, but still had hope.
However, the next three names were not mine either. The next item was a set of cookware: the apple of my eye, my one greatest desire.
Didn’t win that either. As the last name was called, and the bragging intern to my right stood up, it was then that I realized I would leave empty handed.
But thanks to the Durables team, I now know why I want those items!
Check out the video to see how they convinced me!
