my past three days update

May 27
Today was our first day of interning. Adam and I shadowed David, Mike, and Craig and learned how to do a type of hybrid snag list. It was fun evaluating the progress of the building.  Later after lunch we performed a request of inspection with Mike. Using the electrical plans, our goal was to check if a certain zone of a building had all the wire pulled for the fixtures. After we performed the inspection it was time to call it a day.

This morning Adam and I helped Mike and Craig (the electrical consultants) check a punch list. We combed through building 26 (the auditorium) and logged everything that was finished and items that still needed to be completed.
I just remembered the pop quiz David (Finish and close out specialist) gave Adam and I this morning. He asked us what we had learned yesterday involving  management, it was fun rattling off things we learned about coordination of tasks, building relationships with foremen and building managers,  and the importance of communicating important items.
We sat in on a commissioning meeting for the second half of the day. It was rather exciting watching all the specialists convey their ideas and problem solve.

Today we learned some more about field checks and learned that we will be helping out with an airport remodel for FTR the next couple of days. Adam and I went to a great restaurant tonight called Mypie. The guys at work recommended it. It's cheap, good, and we can walk to it... So looks like that will be our typical dinner!!  That's about all I can think of for now.
