Today I learned how to use the CDs that we have in our office. The CDs are kept in the bottom cabinet and they're in alphabetical order. There are a whole bunch of artists in there, and each artist has to have 10 to 15 albums in the cabinet at all times. The CDs are handed out to people that come in for meetings with Monte, to people around the office, or to guest artists. Renata also taught me how to make a bag for guests leaving the office. You have to try and guess what kind of music they like basically. She told us that if someone like Slim or Baby comes in to the office, you're obviously not going to give them a Colbie Caillat CD, you would give them CDs more along the lines of Nicki Minaj. There was a man, Andrew, who came in today to have a meeting with Monte. That was my chance to make a CD bag for him and I thought I did a pretty good job. He was dressed in a nice suit and had glasses and was very polite. He even took the time to meet all of the interns, which rarely happens. I threw in some classic rock that we have, a little jazz and easy listening, and then added some Lady Gaga just to mix it up. Once he left, I reorganized the CD cabinet which took forever. I re-alphabetized all of the artists and made sure they had the amount of albums they needed. Renate told me she would teach me tomorrow how to restock artist CDs that didn't have enough. I had a lot of catching up to do though since I was sick on Friday and missed a day.
