Excellent working environment
Working for the university is very fulfilling and rewarding. I enjoy being a teaching assistant and working with other academics. I also enjoy teaching and learning. A typical workday would be in a lecture room teaching or supervising a group of about 100 students or working in a laboratory conducting experiments and/ or supervising a group of about 5 students a time.
Pros: Great working environment and many opportunities for learning and improving yourself
Cons: Not a very high salary

Exellent in problem solving

In what I do ,I dont find anything being challenging because I enjoy each an everything I do with my job.

Working at Mimmos
I worked as a waiter at Mimmos, in Watermeyer. I enjoyed the short time I worked there in 2018 (from the beginning of January, to the end of February), but it was challenging. Around February, the restaurant would get very busy, putting strain on myself and the other waiters. In a short period of time I learned to cope with very stressful situations. I befriended a few colleagues, for which I was greatful, because they allowed for learning opportunities. It's safe to say that I learned most of the skills I needed to be efficient from them. The most challenging part of the job was dealing with mistakes - be it a mishap in the kitchen or my own fault. Professionalism is key during times like these - a skill I learned through personal experience.
Pros: Great for learning how to work under pressure
Cons: Long hours, late nights, difficult situations with some co-workers

Enjoy working with other people
I have a high interest in using engineering software to solve complex engineering problems and bring to visual my thoughts and solutions. Using the pieces and bits of information acquired through my years of studying to solve problems gives meaning to my life. Minerals processing and pyrometallurgy are one of the most important disciplines that I think runs the mining industry. Some of my interests include hydrometallurgy, research on equipment and improvement of their perfomance, aerodynamics, optimization of processes and finding new solutions. I learn and enjoy working with other people both on field (industrial hands on) and off-field (boardroom/ office work), my passion for projects and research always pushed me to work hard and keep track of time to meet deadline
Pros: great learning enviroment
Cons: less work
