My experience in Jaffna. - Sandarangi Perera. For three long decades Sri Lanka was torn apart by a malicious war between the country’s majority and minority.

My Quality Experience The quality experience for me‚ as of now‚ is the time when we had a tour in Bohol. It was the best for me because I really had a great time‚ specially because it was my second time riding an airplane and the first one was like 6 years ago‚ and riding an airplane back then doesn’t really have an impact with me before.

My Personal Experience Throughout the duration of the ‘Managing People & Organisations’ module‚ I have learnt my strengths and weaknesses.

My Work Experience I have chosen to write about my work experience since it has been a very educating and eye opener in what the job force holds and entails to a new employee. I had been trying to get a job since I was 14 years old but no one was hiring at that age. Finally at 16 and after many applications‚ I was given an opportunity to work for Winn Dixie.

I remember the day clearer than any other. I was in 5th grade. My mom sat me down and told me my father would be living in another home. They called it “temporary.” “It will end” “It is not divorce”‚ they said. This‚ age nine‚ is when the constant packing‚ unpacking and swapping from house to house began.
