As I wandered around IT park, looking for vacancy in any company I might apply, I was a bit nervous for knowing that I am quite late for applying my on the job training or OJT. Luckily, my friend, Kyle James Mosot, advised me to go to this company, Cognizant Technology Solutions. I was a bit scared, at first glance, of sir Bueno because I, myself, am afraid on what they call on-the-spot-interview, my friend told me so, because I never experienced one myself. Gladly, he was not quite strict on it and I was hired then got to start on next week which is Monday.

As I nervously entered the cold building that Monday afternoon unsure of where to report, my palms slowly grew sweaty and I seemed to be at a shortness of breath as I was anticipating my first day of work with a group of people I have never met, at a place I was unfamiliar with. As I found my way I re-introduced myself to my manager who I had met briefly the Wednesday before. I greeted him “good afternoon sir” in an attempt to charm him. My clever tactic was successful, I guess, had won him over instantly. As I further got to know all the people around me known as my colleagues I seemed to slowly descend from my state of edginess and nervousness. I started to feel as if I belonged, I was now an official member of the Interns of this company. I saw it as if I was more than an employee of the company but an exclusive member of a working class community.

On our interaction with sir, Mr. John Paul Bueno, we discussed the rules and regulation in this company and also he asked for our prospectus and later on he discussed one by one on what course or subject that might be a good reference that can be applied upon doing our duty. First one was our Programming 1, he told us that it might come in handy when they have a need for it. What I mean about "they" is Cognizant. By the time we entered the IT office sir JP let us fill up some personal information in a certain excel file, this excel file has a name, address email, contact number on it as far I can remember. He gave us a short lecture about what a domain is and what it, but before it he asked us three about what it is. As far as I can remember a domain is somewhat like an ID/ Identification that means like authority or something that has a power to control a certain system. Domains are formed by rules and procedures of the Domain Name System or rather called DNS. Before our interaction with Sir John Paul Bueno, there was this agreement that we had to read that contains certain protocols that needs to be followed for such persona that he will not leak a certain info that might put the company, Cognizant Technology Solutions, in a little dilemma that can be turn into a huge disaster. The agreement includes not to tell anyone about what devices that are used inside the office. Even by just taking a single photo is a major prohibition that might lead you, yourself, to expulsion. We had a little tour around the office and it was quite amusing because it was like shallow to look upon to it and I loved every step, it was enjoyable actually. The first room he introduced was called Gumamela room, I think??, it was where our interview had in action. And we toured and toured around the 11th floor and moved upstairs, using the emergency exit, the same as the last floor we also toured around the 12th floor which is a bit stricter compared to the lower one and lastly, we skipped the 13th floor to go the last floor office of this company, Cognizant, as we went to tour around the 14th floor I had notice that some rooms were not yet used or occupied. Going back to the tour on the 11th floor, we entered two rooms that were freezingly cold and it was called the server room and the other one was Mux room. The server room is used to store, power and operate computer servers and their associated components. There many LAN wires, Local Area Network, but for me I consider them as WANs, Wide Area Networks because a LAN wire can only use a itty bitty room compared to a WAN, because even by just imagining how the wires should have a length that the company, Cognizant, is way too huge to consider itself to be a small room.. The server room is part of a data center, which typical houses several physical servers lined up together in different form factors, such as rack mounted, or in tower or blade enclosures. As for the other one, the mux room, mux is somewhat like considered communication transmission systems, it is surely abbreviated from the word multiplexing.

As what sir Dave Lozande, another employee, mux is a device that sends multiple signal on a carrier channel but continuation to what he said “pwede rin isa lang” at the same time in the form of a single, complex signal to another device that recovers the separate signals at the receiving end. About what really made me astonished is the Recharge Room because I, myself, so freaking love sleeping. Well as we all know sleep is really a need in our body but so much more on that is the Training rooms lucky are those who are going to apply in this company because the set-up of the computer or PCs are far great to be just for training. Going back to the first time we entered the IT office was we had meet all the staffs or employees well except for ma’am Jen because she is on a grave yard shift or easily called GY. The Manager of the NSS or rather called as Network and System Services. , Mr. Richard Jiraban, then gave us his one solely strict rule or law that should be followed inside the office which is called EOP or English Only Policy. Well of course, I admit it myself, I can have a hard time constructing English words that will not be grammatically wrong but I can understand fully by just listening to someone who speaks even fluently. To cut the story short I am better at listening rather than me talking. Later then to our discussion about our course or our prospectus he then told us that our subject Data Communications rather called Networking, he did mention that it is quite useful for this kind of company because it is the construction, design, and use of a network, including the physical (cabling, hub, bridge, switch, router, and so forth), the selection and use of telecommunication protocol and computer software for using and managing the network, and the establishment of operation policies and procedures related to the network.

After that was our social studies he even gave a little laugh about it because it is about family planning, well as we all know it is quite useful nowadays because of poverty some families just give off many off springs just in order for them to satisfy their pleasure without knowing that it is the one major problem of this country.

As the day went by we had an early dismissal or out because we had nothing to do inside the IT office or Information Technology office or NSS rather called as Network and System Services.

On the next day as soon as we entered the IT office or Information Technology office or NSS rather called as Network and System Services, we helped in mounting the server, we had chills upon doing looking how it was mounted inside somewhat like a big black box that make the servers still or safe that no one can make a single force upon it, the people who brought us to that room that way was sir Jerson and sir Arnel. There was someone who followed us inside he had an access in that room I thought he was up to something but what mattered to him most was us, Cebu Institute of Technology – University students, me as in Franz Hess A. Genegabuas, Sean Emil M. Laurino, Kyle James C. Mosot, because we were wearing only t-shirts and it is prohibited to wear those on weekends except for Friday. Luckily Sir Arnel defended us to the point that we were not able to communicate to that security guard he told him that we were only starters we did not know that kind of rule existed. Going back to the mounting, we had a hard time mounting it because screws almost screwed us, what I mean is that we do not know where we should place it. Should it be front side? Or should it be on the other side which is behind its back. The first trial was a failure because we did not give a little allowance to what is below it so later then we adjusted upwards and finally it was a success then we had to go out of the room.

We waited inside the IT office or Information Technology office or NSS rather called as Network and System Services. Later then sir Dave Lozande asked for a little help for setting up some System Units and monitors but before it was we had to unmount some System Units and monitors for replacement to what we mounted and it was on the 14thfloor and for the unmounted system units and monitors we placed them on the 12th floor then went back to the IT office or Information Technology office or NSS rather called as Network and System Services.

We waited for something we could do later then we updated an anti-virus application in some pcs which was called McAfee. McAfee is a American global computer security software company headquartered in Santa Clara, California, and the world's largest dedicated security technology company.

The company was a wholly owned subsidiary of Intel from February 2011, during which time it was of Intel's Security division. In April 2017, Intel announced that it had returned McAfee to a standalone company.

And on the third day of my OJT or on the job training, we managed to do some work the same as yesterday of that day which was Tuesday last week. Well there are many kinds of viruses, most of those are infected that is in our body, and some are those that are in pcs, mobile phones, tablets and etc. Even SD or Secure Digital cards are prone to viruses most of it are big memory spaces and also for flash drives actually or USB. A computer virus is a type of malicious software program or rather called malware that when executed, replicates by reproducing itself or infecting other computer programs by modifying them. But there are those programs that made possible due to exclusive study about how they are made in order for them to be diminished so that certain computer or mobile phones and they are called anti-viruses. Anti-virus is a software, also called anti malware software, used to prevent, detect and remove malicious software. So much more for that was there are many implications on my mind that is scattering loudly about how viruses are made, for me I think that some anti-virus companies are the ones who are making them so that they will have much income upon selling it. Do not mind me, it is just my thought it does not matter.

The next day we still did the same thing we did yesterday that day, but this day was a special kind of day not because we had free “binignit” but because it was holy Thursday, I really to myself that, that day would be a total consumption of a long weekend but sadly it a no. The office, I mean this office, was so quiet because there were less people who are on duty. I was hoping that we could do more and more stuff rather than just to sit around and do nothing, but I like too though the doing nothing thing. On the next day a total rest day on duty, get what I mean? because we really did nothing on that day which was Holy Friday, and still there was this free “binignit” and sir Dave told us that “tambay lang sa mo sa pantry” so we went and ate later then we were just wasting time watching the television inside the pantry, the movie we watched was Rush Hour 3. Then the time for our dismissal came then we went home.

Then Monday came by but sadly I was not able to attend my duty here because I had to enroll myself in our school in order for the number of hours I had worked on can be counted on my logbook, I was really terrified to what you sirs might react to this because we were only starters then already absence in such a short of time we had worked, I was afraid that you scold us. The next day came by I continued my enrollment early in the morning but sadly my ID was surrendered in order for the school to make a new one, I am a shifting into bachelor by the way or rather called proceed, but wait how is this related to what I am learning in my internship or my ojt or my on the job training, for me it is an eye opener for us interns to not be lousy on our duties or working hours because we might adapt this on our future jobs or careers.

On the day I came to this building again, I had shivers upon pressing the number 11 inside the elevator floor by floor by my burst into beating because I do not have a face to face you sirs. Because I have this fright that I cannot overcome even by this age of mine. It is afraid of getting scolded, luckily you did not and I was happy. Then upon sitting inside the office, I managed to adapt the
