Everyone was nice and willing to help me with any issues I was having. They even invented me to their office picnic.
What I wish was different
I wish that my co-workers did not telework as much because that influenced my training process.
Advice
Hard work is greatly appreciated and helps everyone around you.

Logistics Specialist Intern

What I liked
Helping the survivors of Hurricane Harvey get their lives back to normal as soon as possible.
What I wish was different
I wish that not so many of the actual real employees did not have to deploy to Hurricane Harvey so that I could pick their brains, but I do know that the survivors needed them much more than I and I wouldn't have it any other way.
Advice
Ask questions about everything that you want to know. Take advantage of all the knowledge everyone there has. They are all willing to share it.
