Excellent learning curve,had a chance to be woking in different projects and projections
Transnet engineering was the first platform where i got to explore different work areas in a daily bases. The team work was the best by far, with reference to the several projects we worked on as a team, incuding the green belt project that was a great success and a learning platform for the team as we yielded savings in it. I hav learnt team working, project management, process improvement, how to properly manage a project through applying and involving all the customers voice, the companies standards and techniques like continuous improvement. The most enjoyable moment was going to meeting every morning, knowing we are going to discuss all our targets for the day and what down falls we had yestrday and what could be done. The challenging aspect of any job is when you try to implement change in a process.
Pros: wonderful opportunity for promotion and advancing in career
Cons: implementing change at first sight

Be an asset to the business, as i'm flexible, reliable and very intelligent.
My work can be hectic sometimes as I have to work on expcetions and give report on material shortage list everyday, I have a strong relationship with my co-workers as sometimes my life depends on them as I'm Disabled. Being at Transnet for 14 years was a learning curve as I have learnt to embrace my challenges, to use my natural and learnt talents to define myself, to measure my abilities and know my limits. In the process I have learnt not to be confined by other people’s definition of my potential and circumstances. But the greatest lesson I have come to learn during this period is that when people of a similar circumstance come together they can shape and build One Mission. I enjoy my work being accurate, the most challenging of it is when I don't reach my targets and making sales.
Pros: As i work hard and want to achieve in any situation, promotion wish to be granted as i will improve the public profile
Cons: With my Disability I don't mind working long hours as long as targets are met

Run Reports - Do Stock analysis and check planning aligned and sales forecasting Engaged daily with production manager and supervisors and daily with Buyer.
