Typical day consists basics of my job nature where supervise staff and offer expertise when required. It is not easy to work here but that taught me that not everything comes easy in life especially at work environment. Through my showing my abilities to lead co-worker show a great respect towards me. This is one of the reasons to prove that you do not have e to be strict for your orders to be undertaken. I enjoy bringing new knowledge to my co-workers as it shows that I am changing something in them. Trying to convince my manager of different ways to do certain things is a steep hill exercise.
Pros: Nominated to be part of the committee formed to sort out filing issues
Cons: Working hours not flexible

The role of education
My position involves interaction with staff at all levels, constantly. I assist with information on how to improve their skills by either attending any of the inhouse courses on offer or bursary information with regard to completing a qualification. I have a good relationship with my co workers and have learnt the importance of networking. I have learnt that is never too late to improve yourself. I have had cases of staff over the age of 50 finally passing thier matric. I enjoy working with people and the joy on their faces when they are given the opportunity to improve their education and lives, in the long term. For some staff this is the first opportunity for them to further studies. One of my challenges is not having the resources to fulfill my job role to its full capacity.
Pros: study support
Cons: lack of transformation
