After the shortest weekend of my life, I woke up on monday morning hoping there would be an announcement regarding the mix up in the day of the week. To no avail, it was indeed monday and I had to "face the music".
We started the week as Inspectors, which was a sudden turn as just the other day we were labourers. We had a book compiled by our ever-so-caring Wesley, which provided a good starting point for us. Our inspections managed to keep us busy for the first two days of the week and lead to the discontinuation of our "on-site" experience. We had gained all we possibly could from the practical and it was what I regard as a serious eye opener! Hmmmm, we have a lot of work to do... But thats a story for another day!
So on Wednesday we headed back to the office with the hope of making some progress on our RiskMaq Assignments, completing our inspections and in essence picking up where we left off. We made progress and just as we were unpacking our "luggage", we were on the road again! For a moment it felt like we were in The Great Trek era, but I am not complaining!
We were invited to a conference at the Indaba Hotel hosted by SAFECONEX. It was such a diverse arena and we were surrounded by plenty PPE suppliers. A lot was going on and it felt like I was doing promotions all over again. We were literally selling the PDP brand, there was immense interest shown by the people attending the exhibition. Not forgetting to mention that the food was also great inspiration. We survived the expo and even indulged in the talks/lecturers that were in progress. I think the expo is a great idea and it's a wonderful advertising and marketing opportunity, when the time comes around next year, I would definitely love to be more involved. It seems there are plenty of willing individuals out there, all with the same vision of making a difference. I say bring it on...
The week has ended on a good note and it's time to tackle our assignments and all the work we neglected! It's business as usual, but for now it's weekend time...
Have a good one all and be good.
