This morning, at the bright and early time of 7 a.m., Dan and I started a week of job shadowing at Hibbing Taconite. We are shadowing quite a variety of Cliffs Natural Resources engineers. For the first half of the week, I am shadowing plant engineering. My time is split between Todd Pocquette--electrical engineer and head of plant engineering, and Bill Janicki--mechanical engineer. Dan is shadowing in the concentrating department with Jon Eng--reliability engineer. At mid week, Dan and I will switch, so we can get a better understanding of the diversity of the different engineering positions in just a week.
The first day went very well. We started with a short safety video on Hibbing Taconite operations, and shortly thereafter, Dana Koth led us on a very informative tour from which we gained a good understanding of the site and site operations. At the end of the tour, Dan and I split to begin our shadowing. After a very jam packed day, our heads were spinning with the new knowledge and excitement of the projects to come. Look for an update on our projects later in the week.
