No learning curve

There is no learning curve , no new things to learn , because in SAPS organisation you are not allowed to come with your way of doing things or to be creative on doing things the way you understand , a person have to work according to their national instructions.T he relationship with my commander's is very good , they also motivate me to apply for better job since I have qualifications. No challenges in every day job because I same thing every day . I learned what finance is all about and the thing I enjoyed most is to attend management meetings learning management skills and also presenting budget report to the resource committee meeting.

Pros: The problem you an employee can jump to other rank he/she must go rank by rank. And promotoon take time because the Tate have financial constraints due to civil claims
Cons: Working hours are normal , because we work 8 per day

I work as a Contract Administrator

I enjoy my job very much because every time it comes with new challenges which makes you to research and consult in order to be in lign with the prescript. I manage and monitor all contracts that SAPS has awarded. Any query or amendment, price increase, poor performance are done by my office. I also manage cotract register, tender register, opening of the bid box, opening of bid to check for the necessary documents before handing them to the relevant section. I am also the secretary of the Bid Adjudication Committee, where I minute all decision taken and record the meeting, ensure that all members have sign the declaration of interest. Ensure that the prescripts are adhere to. Also manage the resources that are allocated to the section. My commanders are very helpful and they allow you to work independent only when you have a challenge thats when you can engage with them.

Pros: The pros in my current employment is that you do not have a routine schedule. You receive new challenges every day. As Division Supply Chain Management were responsible for the resources of all Police. Starting from uniform, equipment and vehicles. We must ensure that we maintain the emage of SAPS. Ensuring that there are resources when needed and adequate training for members. All of this is done through SCM prescript as we are governed by National Treasury.
Cons: The cons in my organisation is corruption and you will find that in some instances service delivery is compromised in order to satisfy their own interest.

Powerful and Great excelent experience of a life time

It is a service for the community by the community with the emphasis on the fundamental rights of all the peoples of South Africa. The bottom line is that the SAPS is responsible for creating a safe and secure environment in SA. As I have learned to work well under pressure,respect,honesty and being passionate about my work has taught me that teamwork always plays an important role in each and every working environment though there might be some challenges such as punctuality and learning to adapt working with the whole different characters of people, this helps in terms of being tough by building and boosting the confidence in you.

Pros: Has great opporrunities in terms of volunteer's gaining experience
Cons: Reasonable working hours

My typical day at work

My typical day starts with monitoring electronic and print media. This would determine if there is something to respond to or write a letter to the editor or to task a subordinate. My office is spontaneous, in that, I would receive a request for a speech or briefing document that is required within a set time frame. So, meeting dealines is part of my job. I relate well with colleagues and subordinates; and I give credit to interpersonal skills that I have honed thorugh a number of years. As a wruter I learn new things every day, from a client's personal preferances to new register and ofcourse the hurdles one has to overcome to get hold of relevant content for each specific assignment.

Pros: I have been in the same level for almost six years now and I am seeking an opportunity to grow in my career path and do something new.
Cons: I always ensure that I start and finish any assignment and start the next day on a new slate. As a person with a journalistic backround, one never expect to be paid overtime nor demand rest days for having worked beyond office hours.

Management of budget and HRD coordination

I have learnt the dimensions of HER being an ETD and HRD Practitioner, Training Officer and Skills Devepment Facilitator, it has been a long journey of discovering my passion for training through trial and error that taught me credibility, hard work, team spirit, to work under pressure and continuous development of my skills, knowledge and attributes. I have learned to take spontaneous decision in the process of training delivery especially managing employees and getting work done despite our differences. I have learnt listening and interpersonal skills, and conflict management with the sound understanding of diversity. The training arena has been exciting in its complexity having to learn new things from time to time. It has kept me enthusiastically embracing new trends locally and internationally.

Pros: I have been promoted to different positions
Cons: I know that travelling, long hours of work, relocation and meeting deadlines are part of my job
