This week has been great. It started out with just doing screws and designing small parts that are always used. Then they offered me a full time job after school and to continue working through the summer and next year and continue working there. So All the time there has payed off and it will be a great experience to come.
I believe High Schools should require a internship to graduate because kids don't get enough real world experience. Also the things kids learn in school is almost never going to be used in the real world. The best thing they can do is to get a CO OP or a internship because you actually learn real world things that you will use throughout your whole life. I agree with James. I agree with him because this teaches kids bad habits in that they don't have to work hard to get something. This makes kids think that if they just show up they will win and thats not how it works in the real world. One of my biggest accomplishments was winning the Chicago to Mackinac sailboat race. I didn't just show up and expect to win there was weeks of preparation for the 36 hour race.
This week at work i have started working on parts for the company. They design the part and when it is done I open it and insert fasteners in to the part. This is important because this tells the builders how many and where to put nuts and bolts. This week was good. I started taking parts and designing them on thecomputer to learn how to use the programs. Time management is important. Its important beccause dedlines are in place you only have a certin amount of time to finish a job that you need to do. My employer is somewhat leanient about showing up on time they say just be at work on time or 5-10 min when your supposed to. Also is you are running late call and say why that helps so they know you are not just lazy.
It was a good first week at Kimastle. I helped file papers and helped with inventory paperwork.
I have been watching the design process and learning how to use the programs. Im enjoying the job and it will be fun to learn more. I believe the most important trate is being a hard worker. I think this because if you show motivation and work hard you can do anything you want. I believe i have this trait. Also at a new job it shows your employer that you are ready and willing to work and learn new things. It shows that you will be an important part of the team in the work place. |
