Praxis Episode 2 - A New Beginning


Place: Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe in der Helmholtz-Gemeinschaft (Research Center of Karlsruhe, sub of Helmholtz Company)
Working hour: Official: 8am - 4.30pm; unofficial: 9am - 3pm
Working hour per week: 40 hours (it is very long.........)
Salary: (Secret... )
Period: 1/3/2007 - 31/08/2007 (6 months)
Holiday: 10 days free holiday in 6 months


Above are the details of my industrial training company. As you can see, i work 40 hours per week and it is so long. Usually germany people only work 37.5 - 38.5 hour per week. There is even Streik, complaining about too long working hour per week.

Haha, there is 1 thing that i like so much. My working time is flexible, that mean as long as i work during unofficial working hour. Official working hour is just a decoration. So, i take the lazy way, work from 9am to 4-4.30pm. It is not so good when all people still work at 4pm and you suddenly say goodbye to your working collegues. And i don't want to leave an impression that i am that lazy that i always finish at 3pm, although my work is still relatively easy now. Furthermore, i am new at practical.

Basically, my work now is misc job. I am a helper and i help anyone who need my help. So far, i am under 3 boss (1 main boss and 2 sub boss) since i work in multi sub-department. The job so far is building a high temperature filter machine and repair/clean/demontage machine. (weird, i study chemical engineering, not civil engineering nor mechanical engineering neither a mechanic!!!!! but i feel like i am a mechanic........)

That's all for now. I need to help my boss again. See you soon.

p/s: What can i learn from working on different machine? erm... just correct working ettique and working posture. And eating with boss... swt!
