| This is Gord. He is a foreman who
started
out as, and still is a, P.E.T./Stationary Engineer. He kind-of stumbled
into P.E.T./Stationary Engineering too. He had been attending
University
and going for a degree in Engineering. Thing was, he got board with
University
and wanted to get out and do something that excited him. He needed a
change
and a challenge that would excite him. He sent out hundreds of resumes
with no success. Then it was suggested he attend a 6 week
P.E.T./Stationary
Engineering session at a local technical school as an adventure and see
if it appealed to him.
Gord came out of the 6 week
P.E.T./Stationary
Engineering course still not having a real clear idea of what
P.E.T./Stationary
Engineering was all about. He approached an employer he had sent out a
resume to previously and actually got an interview. During the
interview
he expressed the fact that all he wanted was a JOB. Well he got the JOB
and soon found out how the JOB could manifest itself into a GREAT
CAREER.
Gord was very impressed with the
personal challenge
and satisfaction he found working as a P.E.T./Stationary Engineering so
much so that he graduated through the ranks to foreman status by the
time
he was 28. He did most of his studying on shift and had all his
education
paid for by his employer too. He took it all the way to getting his
First
Class P.E.T./Staionary Engineer's certificate. "It’s a matter of
personal
interest and intellectual challenge." Gord says. Gord like’s things to
be 100% as anything worth doing is worth doing well. He’s been in the
business
since 1984.
