"I enjoyed the constant tasks that I was assigned and how it was left up to me alone to come up with the best way to go about completing the tasks, presenting the idea to my employer, and then implementing it. When you are given a task and you have all the freedom to be creative and finish it as you see fit, it gives you a strong sense of pride and accomplishment."
