Random monthly extra progress blog for September

Mentorship progress:
Hurray! I have a mentor, my life is now compete. So as i mentioned before I mentor at  Tom Chaves grading  company every friday from 1 to 4:30. Usually I am given some project or I help out this guy Leo who does all the auto cad work for the company (He thinks I'm an intern). I mostly photocopy important stuff and read boring reports (boring as into bore…like drill a hole….well i guess boring in both senses really.) I also help around with all there tech problems (I'm like their paul now) fixing broken scanners and computers, they are not tech savvy at all. As i learn more I get more responsibilities around the office, for instance sometimes I have to summarize long reports for Tom to save him time reading the entire thing. I wish I had some pictues but those will be hard to arrange as in the contracting world corporate espionage is common. People want to steal estimation data in order to out bid another company so i cant just go around snapping photos. Next time I will have some for sure though. Heres their website  (http://www.earthtekeng.com/employees.php). Um Not much else to report on I'm just joe the intern. I'm learning a lot about what it takes to survive in the construction world and as time progress i hope i will be able to help the office in even more ways.
