Since this is the last few days of my official internship at BG, I am substituting the traditional goodbye post with some excellent reasons why interning at BG is an exciting adventure that you wouldn't want to miss out on:
1. YOU GET TO PUT TOGETHER
EXTRAVAGANT GIFTS FOR CLIENTS.
This is a little package I got to hunt down and assemble one day: a stuffed wiener dog and a wooden hand with decorative mini-beverages as a collar. You would not believe the look I received when I asked an employee at Babies'R'Us if "they carried wiener dogs and wooden hands"... it was like she wasn't sure whether to laugh or call the police.
2. YOU GET TO RIDE THIS BADASS BUTTERFLY BIKE (PURSE NOT INCLUDED).
As an intern at Bailey Gardiner, this beauty will be your primary mode of transportation. It is stunning and it handles like a dream. You are sure to get some serious attention when you ride this bike around town for your errands.
3. YOU GET TO GO TO THE DEL MAR HORSE RACES.
BG has a lot of really cool San Diego clients and a great perk of having cool clients is getting to do cool things. BG Day at the Races is a really good time that you will definitely enjoy.
4. YOU GET TO WATCH ROSCOE SUNBATHE.
Jennifer's dog Roscoe joins us for work every Tuesday and his favorite past time is working on his tan in the window. He is like a supermodel and this is the reason he is BG's official mascot.
5. YOU GET TO DRIVE AROUND WITH A GIANT GRAPE VINE IN YOUR FRONT SEAT.
There are days when someone at the office will need a grape vine and it is your job to track one down and bring it to the office. When you return, it will be your job to cut the creatures out of it and decorate it.
When BG records radio commercials you will get to go and hang out at recording studio. Not only will you learn a lot about how a radio commercial comes together, but you'll get to feel pretty cool and tell all your friends.
7. YOU GET TO CREATE THE OFFICE BABY BETTING POOL WHEN THERE'S AN EXPECTING BG'ER.
When there's a baby on the way at BG, you will get to create the chart and take down the bets for what kind of baby that baby will be.
8. PEOPLE HERE DRESS REALLY FANCY.
People here at BG take fashion really seriously- checkered pants and seersucker suits are pretty typical. And when BG'ers dress extra fancy, you will get to take their photo.
9. YOU GET TO GO BOWLING.
I hope you are good at bowling because past BG interns (I'm obviously talking about myself) have really set the bar high for intern performances at BG Bowling. Bring your A-game.
10. YOU GET TO PHOTOGRAPH THE REFRIGERATOR.
You will find that the BG fridge has a lot of wisdom to share and it will be your job to take its picture on a weekly basis and share that wisdom with the world.
AND LASTLY...
SOMETIMES THERE ARE GORILLAS IN THE OFFICE.
There have been times when a gorilla gets loose in the office and that always makes for a fun day.
This post may have quickly turned into a photo scrapbook of crazy things I've encountered during my time here at Bailey Gardiner, but it really does show how much fun every day is in the office. Not only will you do some really interesting
things, you will also gain experience in so many different aspects of advertising. You will become a master of research on many different topics and you will get to see how things come together within an agency to make great work. There is no better place to learn the business of advertising and work with some really fantastic people. You would be a fool to want to intern anywhere else.
These are all fabulous reasons to why you want to be an intern at BG. You've done all of these (including a ton more that aren't mentioned in this list) exceptionally well!
