E&Y XP

Since 2 weeks I am making my internship in E&Y (sounds like AI when you pronounce it, so it should warm my heart).
This experience is really new and unexpected for me, because when u go to work for Big Four, everybody just says you'll oversleep there, you'll be loaded with work and so on and so forth...
By internal information I knew that 300 ppl left it just in January, but at the same time, almost the same amount was recruited, so if to calculate retantion rate by wrong formula you may say it's 100%.
Before going there I was really excited and thinking and even dreaming of it, worried a lot. I received there my laptop,my personal phone with my name written on it and thats it.
Since then not much action happened. My working day lasts 8h and every hour I calculate and hope when it'll pass by.
The only person who supported me there, made it positive and helped a lot left today for NY. Am very happy for her, but the next 3 months of such life seems to me unbearable.
I just dont receive any task, shy to speak with people. Yesterday I wrote e-mail to my group: dear colleagues, please consider my availability and got the reply of 3 people that I have to change my signature... And nothing more... Discussing my problems with girls and laughing it out...
Trying to remember the jokes at working place and find smth positive in it.... And the one which describes my state there is:
Доктор, мне кажется, меня все игнорируют. - Следующий!
