Great Exposure and PLC experience
A typical work day involves me taking part in toolbox talks in the morning.Safety is key and my current workplace. After morning meetings and depending on the work schedule for the i either attend to breakdowns for the day or do planned maintenance or shut work. Currently i am involved in FDS (Functional Design Specification) document creation. This means that on a daily basis i get to verify PLC codes with process documentation. I have been able to create(Plant check and AUTOCAD draughting) and validate P&IDs for the whole of Richards Bay Minerals. I currently report to the PCS(Process Control Systems) Engineer.I love my job being able to code,calibrate and do maintenance work. I love challenges and the current challenge i am facing is creating an FDS with no plant documentation basically to reverse engineer a PLC code so that an operator or someone who does not know the plant will be able to understand how the plant operates
Pros: Great exposure to PLC and coding
Cons: Limited chances of promotion

To learn new things everyday to avoid routine day job and become complacent
Doing plant maintenance everyday and shut preps and be involved in a shut work once a week Always nice to work with people since you learn and teach each other new things and that becomes a vibrant working environment Learnt that your job becomes more easier if you empower one another and be always ahead on the schedule to avoid your job leading you. your job must follow you Enjoy fault finding and troubleshooting and rectifying complex faults. From time to time ive been taken to different plants to go and assist if they had an ongoing faults for quite sometime. The most common challenge is the changing of technology now and then, so you must always be on the lookout for new innovations and try to keep up and sometimes you wont have money for that and then becomes more challenging, then you have to settle with what you have.
Pros: always enrich yourself and learn everyday and try to rest when you are at home all the time to avoid fatigue
Cons: unfortunately you have to work overtime and standby so you must always be prepared

Being self employed in the end was a good opportunity but economic situations killed the moral
Challenging given the current economic condition Running a business has been good experience but I have seen few months going with no income both to the business and myself Running a company taught me a lesson that sometimes hard work as it may, you sometimes it also drain your resources and emotions I grew stronger on resilience and tenacity I learned to do all processes, from planning, budgeting, etc to implementation sometimes all by myself due to lack of resources What gave me job satisfaction was no matter how small the achievement, it was well celebrated and always give me strength to press on
Pros: Being your own boss gives you flexibility
Cons: Being your own boss is stressful and tiring
