Hi,
My second week was nice, exept that this cold weather doesn't make me feel like working :(
This time I was asked to draw a garage on a site situated in constancia. This work was more interesting than the first one as it is a real job. I'm now more comfortable in the program Micro GDS than the first week, which is great. I feel good in this office, and I can see I'm learning much more than the previous office as it is much smaller. I can see that my boss wants me to learn :)
Noel (my boss), Monique and I, went for coffee a few time, which is very nice, because it gives up a break during the day! At the coffee break, Noel gives us briefs of what needs to be done, or how far he is in the projects etc.. I happy to know exactly what I'am working on.. Then It's easier to work on the drawings.. It doesn't feel like I'm working on any drawings.

Here is the garage:

See you guys next week :)
Hello everyone..
I know it has been ages that i didn't post something on my blog..
I reason why I didn't do so is because at the office, I was asked to do repetitive task like making copies, send faxes, colouring the plans, or going to council. Since the end of May I dont work at KLG Archittects anymore.. And since the 11th of June I work for Botha A Architect. My friend Monique also work there, but she started since the begginning of the year.
I really enjoyed my first week there, As from the first day, Noel (my boss) took us on three of his construction site.. He tells us a lot about his projects, which is really good! At the begginning a was a bit scared because Noel doesn't use Autocad. He uses a different program which is called MicroGDS. I thought it would take me a long time to get used to the program. My task for this week was to redraw an old hand drawing that he did approximately 30 years ago on the computer.. So this week i did the ground floor plan, the first floor plan and the basement. As the days are going, I'm getting better in the program.. After the week end I will put the drawings i did on the blog, because i dont have them with me right now.
I am enjoying working with Monique there, we are both in the same office. When I need help on the program which is new to me, she helps me so it is perfect :)

Here are the drawings:
