Excellent learning curve
Manning someone's diary effectively solely depends on someone or a PA who is very creative, committed, passionate and has a directive . This simply means that for a Manager or a reporting line of duty to perform effectively and efficiently, it calls for a very disciplined PA. Relationship with other team workers is also very crucial for the smooth running of the daily business and excellent production. Good supervisory or management skills are what I have learnt and am still learning each and everyday because that alone portrays the end product as to how good or bad it will be at the end of each passing day. I really enjoy doing my job because it makes me grow in knowing that should I make a mistake then that will jeorpadise the company name and its integrity. Challenging will always be there if one is committed to their work, but at the same time one should always learn new strategies to curb such challenges.
Pros: Award winning
Cons: Awkward working hour at times

I work as a Secretary/Personal Assistant, that is very much interesting and challenging as one has to make it a point that the office runs smooth every passing day. Being responsible for someone's diary means that one has to be in sober senses at all times so that appointments do not clash, manning the office efficiently while the Manager is away, running all errands effectively. Team work is one of the utmost or the core responsibilities so as to make the work flow easy and manageable. One has to meet different people with different characters; that alone is indeed a learning curve because one has to adjust to different approaches. Daily office routine is very much enjoyable as one learns a lot of things, from different perspectives.
Pros: Award winning for commitment is what I look forward to.
Cons: Working outside normal work hours, compromising my family time.

I have improved my time management skill
Some days are more challenging than other but I have learnt to tackle each day as it comes with much positiveness in mind. I have a good relationship with my co-workers they are very supportive. I have learnt to work well within a team and good time management skills. I enjoy that sometimes I get the opportunity to interact directly with undergrads and get to know how I can improve myself. The most challenging aspect of the job is having to improvise due to the lack of equipment and chemicals at times.
Pros: I am a hardworking, dedicated, strong willed, passionate person and with these characteristics I believe I will be suitable for a promotion one day.
Cons: In my line of work I always put on extra hours to finish my work since I also doing my Master's degree. I have to manage my time as well as excel both in my work and academically. I have to meet all deadlines stipulated by my supervisors.

Excellent learning curve
Working for the university has given a wide range of experience and exposure. I have gained more experience in working with general workers to senior professionals. This has uplifted my confidence and my ability to communicate at all levels. I enjoy working in teams as you get to be critisized (in a constructive manner) and redirected to do what will benefit both the team and the company at large.
Pros: There is great room for promotion within the University which follows promotion criteria to be met
Cons: For now I would say the strick, which is delaying our processes and the learning delays

Team work
Working as a lab assistant help me a lot because i'm able to work with different people. Sharing ideas with others and working under pressure while am still a student. I can say this are things which drive me to always stay focus on my work and also respect each other. The challenges that I experienced is that some times you found out that our youth are scared of doing science and most of them they claim that science is hard/ tough so that result me to go further with my studies in oder to have more knowledge so that I can share with them n change their mentality about science because, for me science is a powerful weapon we can use to design/ synthesize new products which can increase our economy. Not only that also by making new products from raw materials we can create job opportunities.
