Excellent career start point.
The relationship with colleagues is the best, it’s a second family. Getting up to go to work is not a misery because of the great working relationship and the focus of one goal of a team to improve and optimize processes whilst delivering products to customers on time. Being pushed out of my comfort zone is really a challenge but it really made me grow both personally and professionally. I have full admiration for the supportive, collaborative team-mates with an amazing, positive and hilarious team leaders.

My day starts with production feedback meeting in which production stats and imminent plans get shared with the team for efficient continuous operation to avoid bottlenecks and recurrence process interruptions. Then later during the day after scanning through my mails and completion of critical reports go lead the team to ensure that daily-targeted goals are achieved. My relationship with co-workers do not impact my job other than they improve workplace satisfaction (by up to 96 percent!) and keep you sane. I have learn to project hope and positivity, while keeping the organization focused by combating weakness, negativity and mediocrity. I have also learnt to always have a plan, and ensure I am constantly moving the ball towards the goal. What I enjoy the most is to run a safe and profitable business. My challenges aspects of my job involves working with unfocused leadership who spend more time on pointless meetings.
Pros: Leaving a great legacy for continual safe and profitable business.
Cons: Long working hours

I work hand in hand with Plant Superintendents who happen to be Metallurgical Engineers by profession. I ensure plant availability at all times. I do Foreman & Engineer standby. the most challenging part of my job is the quality of plant safety as the plant projects are not designed using modern technology and executed in substandard
Pros: I have been promised promotion to Section Engineer when one of the Engineers leaves
Cons: I work extended hours here due to a backlog in terms of project commissioning

Fast leaner
I started as a clerk for about 4months at rand refinery and my contract ended then I was called for an operator position, me and my co-workers are responsible of melting different material in the furnace and produce a sample of that material and an ingot so it can be processed in other department. we are working as a team of 3 and we understand each other even though we sometimes experiencing some challenges but we do sort those challenges or differences out. I learnt most processes in the company, treating the material from one furnace to the next till the final product, and the chemical equations and accuracy in measuring. I'm enjoying working with numbers and chemical equation and processes. we're too exposed to high temperatures and heavy material that are being lifted manually into the furnaces those are my two aspect that are very challenging to me
Pros: great oppotunities for growth in the company
Cons: unsatable shifts
