My School Field Trip

School field trips are educational, although sometimes the trip can result as monotonous or entertaining. The field trip I took recently to AT&T retail store in Brentwood cannot compete with any trip I have been on lately. The trip was atypical because of the activities that took place, the environment, and seeing the managers connect with the scholars. In addition, seeing my peer’s reaction to the information and being captivated with the topics made it an enjoyable time. Arriving to the AT&T store, we received a warm welcome from the managers, and other workers that work there. Starting our journey, we met in the back room to discuss the few subjects we covered from when they came to our school. They had a “pop quiz” to see what information

For example, instead of using your key to unlock your door you can use a touch keypad to unlock you door, by just touching numbers. The manager was showing us that he had an app for the alarm system, the security locks, and even his home thermostat had an app. Moreover, he showed the scholars live feed of his home from his cell phone while the security system was on and no one was home. In addition, he presented how he can alter the temperature in his home by using his cell phone. Soon after, there was a station that elaborated the partnership AT&T recently invested in with Direct TV. “How much money do you all think AT&T expend to join this partnership with Direct”? The Manger asked my group, to start his presentation in this station. Although we had acceptable guesses, our guesses were nowhere near the amount AT&T had disbursed for collaborating with Direct TV. Our closing station was demonstrating how they serve their customers when entering the AT&T retail store. The sign in list is for customers, so the associate can tell which customer is next by looking at the brief information about the customer. To identify the customer they put in their name, cell phone number, and one description, like black coat. As time is going by technology is advancing, so it is no hidden fact that the customer could reserve their prior arrangement online.
