So some of you know how much hoop-la and shenanigans Todd and I have to go through over the past few months. We have been trying to get me out on site so I can help him and the other surveyors and maybe learn a thing or two. We (well I) had to write safety, quality and environmental management plans, contracts, letters, and wait for the HR department to decide if they wanted to wield their all powerful pen and sign me off... dangit. In any case, I have FINALLY been given the go ahead and I start my life as a construction worker (y-ech) tomorrow with my induction.
Well dad, you wanted me to write about how things are different here, this will definitely give me more than enough fodder. Of course, I really have no idea what the US construction industry is like but this will all be a new world for me. Don't worry, Todd has been training me in the ways of the workers. We have been going to many safety shops, I have eaten at the construction camp twice, and he has taught me how to play nice with the other kiddies in the hard hats. Seriously though, this will be an experience!
Ps. Don't worry, pictures of me in my awesome new fashionable orange to come!
