Another day, another learning experience!

What was nice today, is that I can see how the parts within the Health and Safety Representative course are repeated to ensure proper identification of risks and the management thereof. We continued with the training today and David Motswaledi presented two of the tabs (10 &11). High quality presentation, as was all the tabs Carel presented. They observe us well and can see when we are run low on gas, and then they give us the opportunity to just stretch our legs and get off our brains (which we are sitting on, according to Carel). What is nice from my point of view, is that they use good examples to give us a good understanding even though we haven’t all the experience.

So, on a little more personal level....My girlfriend surprised me yesterday from Potch! Awesome! It just gave a little more umf, so to speak. The change was getting to me a little, being a “plattelandse boertjie” and all. The big city life is something I still have to get used to, but at least the people I am interacting with at work make that transition easier as well.

We are going go-carting tomorrow for team building. I am looking forward to it, mainly because:
· I am a highly competitive guy when it comes to sport and sports alike! I people are going to notice that about me and hopefully they notice a few other characteristics as well, as that is the point of the exercise isn’t it?
· I am looking forward to learning a few things about my fellow PDP colleagues.

So remember to look at the number 2 I’ll be wearing on my back tomorrow....because that is where you will be finishing, in second!!!!

Stay Classy Guys!
