Study and Work history School system in Italy is divided into primary and secondary school. At higher secondary school, I was sent to a lyceum specializing in science, then I spent several years at civil and IT engineering where I passed a lot of exams. During college I started working, so I discontinued my studies and I never got a degree, but now I think that I might go back to college when I’m older and I get fed up of my job. I work in a multinational company dealing with industrial automation software. This is the fourth workplace for me: I’ve been here for 15 years, I changed my job a few times inside the company so I have bonded with a lot of colleagues. Anyway, I’ve always been a technician working with software design. My typical day consists of some hours to spend in meeting or internet calls, discussing various topics, mostly with colleagues of different departments. It’s a varied work so I like it. I also have some tasks with a deadlines, and I have to fit everything in my working time. At the office we have a canteen and I have lunch with old coworkers, so I break the routine of my own tasks. Lately, for a dramatic collapse of a highway bridge on my street, commuting has become unpredictable and sometimes traffic is so slow that I prefer to stop by some place on the road, and I do some shopping o make some language exchange from there. I want to take advantage of every moment in my day, so at I’m exhausted, yet I wake up very early ready for a new day.
