bomax.

Ok, my first week at bomax architects and i quite enjoyed it. back in the game and ready to win the race, I was pro-active and quite busy, and was happy to be doing some work again.
Started monday morning, we had a monday morning meeting, where they went through all the current projects and what stages they are in at the moment and where i can help. They decided that at the moment Riaz has the most hectic deadlines and i should help him.
The company consists of the Bossman Dion Max Walters, his secratary/PA/admin./everything Natalie, Brad an architect, Riaz snr technologist, and now me, student. A Workforce of five, but are currently looking for another student.

After the meeting i just got there and jumped right in and started working. It was exciting, because the first project i am working on is "Oceana" that is the Thomas Pattullo building, our tech building and the one next door, at the moment we are just working on the one next door, our building will start construction once the developers give the go-ahead. So in some way i still feel connected to tech. lol.
I stared the HUGE schedule for the three top office floors and i dont think i ever seen or had to draw that many doors and glass shopfronts for the offices. I mean i have done schedules before but not to that extent! I finished it on tue. because there are tight deadlines with that project at the moment and they needed it for the meeting, and the meeting brought more work. So wednesday i had to start with the joinery on all three floors and the information they send us comes in drips and drabs, so we keep having to change things, not to mention the amount of times they change there minds, what to omitt what not to omitt and to add new. That kept me Quite busy the rest of the week, and now its friday and i think we are ontop of it. UNTIL something happend, i dont know what i did but i just lost the whole 7th floor... and i dont know what to do, how do i tell them.... my heart was pounding in my chest, into my throat, i swear if i smoked, i would have lit a cigi to calm my nerves.. when Riaz asked me if i printed it already i told him... he said its gone, i had draw the whole thing over. Then he said his only joking, they have back-ups. aaaaarrrww, releaved, but heart still pounding. I was to scared to even touch the computer after that.

But all in all a gud first week at bomax and being in Town again and i only expect it to get better. I wonder what is instore for me next week... I like the people, they are fun, interesting, helpfull, friendly and a bit crazy, i like crazy. I guess Tanya is right architecture does make you crazy, or maybe just a bit loopy, not completly off the deep end.

till next nime
