It was May 12th and the start of my second internship in college. I had skipped breakfast to go over my mental checklist again. Laptop: check, pants: check, false confidence: check. I showed up at the office at 8:45 but it was locked. This gave me an extra 15 minutes to think about how I hadn't done anything real in Python and remember the names of the people that had interviewed me. It was 9:08 and still, no one was at the office. I triple checked the name on the door, double checked the welcome email and quadruple checked the time. Was this internship just an elaborate practical joke by my roommates?
