I have been employed in the Municipality for almost 8 years but i am still stuck at the same job.
I have no job description I am doing most of my supervisor's work. I am doing clearances of debts, enquiries of accounts, opening and closing accounts, check reading of meters which entails me going out of office, I transfer services to new accounts with the apportioned debt with that. Workers do not have a good working relationship. others are climbing the ladder while others are being left at the same position for years without any recognition. Some of the workers go behind other workers back s and deliberately spread false rumours to seniors as to gain favours and privileges. I have learnt to be independent, hard working and to deliver my work no matter the situation.I have enjoyed dealing with different people and growing as a person and being stronger and be able to take criticism.The most challenging is doing my seniors work for them while they get a higher salary than me. it is frustrating to teach your senior how they should be doing their duty.
Pros: There are none.
Cons: heavy worload, short staffed, low salary, no promotions, disatisified

Excellent learning curve
I'"m the go to person, reliable, accurate and pay attention to detail. Not only am I the Data Capturer but also responsible for administration, receiving payments and also handle enquirers. I have learnt a lot from my supervisor who gave me the training at the post Im in now at the moment. She taught me all the work and also taught me here work and I also stand in for here when she is on leave. I enjoy the challenges that come with the post as I deal with people on a daily bases. People are different and you get to learn how to handle everyone and treat each client as if they the most important, and they are. The most challenging will be the system going offline, when its the busiest times of the month.
Pros: great opportunity of becoming permanent
Cons: working overtime without notice

Great opportunity to learn
I have worked as an intern at Chris Hani under supply chain rotating in all sections of the Budget and Treasury, my typical work day is capturing suppliers on the company system, capturing orders, making procurement and evaluating tenders, all that requires being able to work under pressure and dedication because some days we work until after hours, and overtime and there's a tremendous amount work which enabled me to learn a lot during my time there.
