SUmmer Internship 2022
During the summer, I had the opportunity to intern with Solid Construction.
I spent my days on a two acre lot, raking leaves, trimming bushes, watering plants, mowing the lawn, planting trees, putting up fences, feeding animals, and a little bit of cleaning & vacuuming the jobsite!
Each week was a little different, with different start times, ending times, and different daily tasks. Overall, I met with my mentor three days a week for about four to five hours daily! My mentor and I often discussed the importance of safety with work equipment. Teaching me the right way to use dangerous equipment and the safety precautions I need to take if an emergency occurs.
Reflection
I am very grateful for this learning experience! I feel that this internship really helped me prepare for life after Highschool. It allowed me to see the raw and unsolicited things that life will throw at me, whether it being good or bad. I learned so much in so little time and I couldn't be more excited to see what else I will learn on my journey throughout adulthood.
