Food for your soul

Working in Male-dominated environment

After many days or months, i had not added my blogs here ever since i started work at NSL Engineering (NatSteel).

Woopz...Leaving me tired after work and rise before the darkness breaking into morning. Catching the bus among the ordinary folks who jam pack at Jurong Bus Interchange.

Eyes sleepy and folks bring their own breakfast to office to eat. Catching 40winks in bus before starting the day at work. Machines start whirling with noises at 8am sharp on dot.

Indian workers climbling out of trucks driven by their foreman to production and start work stretching from 8am to 7pm.

Food not plenty but I am grateful for 2 canteens that cater to Malay minorities and serve little variety of food that leaves you feeling bored. Food in city becomes your luxury when you get off from work on friday and on weekend, head to city to enjoy the food.

Typical day with many emails from clients that want the products filled with parts.

Running around to check stock and go through drawings to match with products before passing to Quality Control Dept for checking.

After approval, the production will start with the new project.

Manuals needed to be sent locally or overseas by DHL in express. Rush manuals to give the warranty for the finished products.

At the end of day, workers rushed out from office at 530pm on dot to catch the company bus before the bus leave after waiting for 5minutes. How impatient of bus driver...Cannot wait even the last worker dare to stop the bus in front of him/her..opzzz..Near -death experience...hehe

Dropping off workers at 5 drop-off points.In bus many workers are seen sleeping or chatting...
