Today I took off sick, it has nothing to do with my horrible day yesterday, my boss was really disappointed in me because... wait for it....... while he was out he asked me to draw up an existing house and design the new extension, naturally I drew up two concepts and he did not like them because it was not what he would have done. So because of that he sees me as a failure I suppose, oh well, I cant read minds, I told him if he want me to draw up his exact work he should brief me correctly before hand so while his out of office as usual I know what to do. I'm starting to call it "The Chronicles of Office War".... part 1... although I cannot deny the fact that I am learning so much so when his in office and in a mood I whip out my earphones to keep the piece and annoy him abit.. payback! hahaha
I should comment on the work I have been doing so far, most of all I'm doing all extensions to houses, which is alot! all by myself my boss checks it, new or complicated drawings he does plans for and I do the sections and elevations, I know how to send off emails to get SG diagrams and how to calculate cape feet, degrees, minutes and seconds, inches and feet (I have to admit I did not know how to do this previously) and most drainage layouts. There was one drainage layout that I could not do which as a double storey house with a second drainage run. I think that disappointed my boss abit as well, and the fact that he says I still forget some things on my drawings, but for me I find it hard to understand for example: a factory that I have no plans for and no images, but he expects me to be rotating and mirroring machines I have no idea what they even are used for or how they look in real life. Theses things get really confusing and he doesn't understand that I need to learn still I'm nowhere near his level, obviously, anyway I guess I'm at fault. One thing he is right about is that I am still taking too slow to finish a drawing, I'll take about two days to draw up municipal and working drawings for a house extension from plan when I should be doing it in one day. I am working on it though, and to properly analyse his drawings so I don't forget anything anymore.
