The thing I love most about my job is that there is a sense of ownership from the implementations that are made to the processing plant as a result of my actions.
When I arrive to work, I usually check my emails if any of the clients responded to the RFIs (Request for Information) that I sent them. Also, I check my daily report on the task that needs to be done or prioritised.
As a building review officer, it is a big responsibility since we are the ones who see those plans and make sure that all of the parts of the structure are compliant with the building code.
There is rarely a perfect trade or a right answer in most situations I face, but sometimes opportunities arise where I am able to utilize all of my training and experience to make a split-second decision that could result in a big payout.
The coolest thing about my role is that level of involvement I’m given as an intern, sitting in on planning meetings at the highest level, being asked to contribute and having my opinion heard is extremely exciting and sometimes scary.
