I used to work with 4 engineering foreman doing their admin work and purchasing items for the internally and external purchases plus I would oversee their hours and overtime plus of their artisans Invoices months end report Yearly budget reviews and would help out with capturing Job cards for artisans man work hours and order spares for shut down maintenance to be done on the plant. I really enjoyed my work but sometimes it would be difficult because of the pressure that I would get from the foreman when there is a breakdown at the plant. Working with different people you learn how to behave when you are around certain people and how to work under pressure. I enjoyed the bonuses I would get after three months and being treated special as a lady because it was a man's world. Pressure during shutdown and maintenance or Audits
Pros: Great opportunity
Cons: Long working hours and overtime at times

Excellent Place of learning
I started in the learnership in 2017 and qualified as a mechanical fitter on the 2nd of September 2019. I am currently back serving my 3 months probation. I enjoy working at the mine as it is full of highly skilled artisans who have taught me everything I need to know about Pumps, MILLS, Crushers , cells, and a lot of other fitting related tasks. I have learnt how to behave as an artisan, how to conduct myself under pressure and when breakdowns occur. I enjoy a very good working relationship with all my core workers and superiors.
Pros: Great place to kick start ones career. Challenging and pushes one above limits
Cons: They do not pay students bonuses
