All About my Work
Good day ladies and gents. How are you today?
In this blog I would like to introduce to everyone what's my work and what's the life of a Forklift Service Technician, but before that I would like to give you some background about it.
What is a FORKLIFT?
A forklift, also known as fork truck, is a motor-driven industrial truck used for lifting and moving goods on a pallet within the premises of a warehouse, storage facilities and distribution centre. Depending on the design, some Forklifts allow the operators to sit while driving or operating the machine.
What is Service Technician?
Service technicians or Field Technicians are the ones who are deployed in the fields and responsible and in-charge of the maintenance and the repairs of the units. Like me, I got deployed in the Area Of Pasig City. Our covered areas are the places that are near in Pasig, like Rizal, Mandaluyong, Taguig, and even some parts of Quezon City.
I am a TOYOTA Service Technician. We are not allowed to touch any other machines like Mitsubishi, Hyundai and etc. We only repair TOYOTA machines.
What's our Job to the Unit?
As a Service Technician we are the one's that maintains the performance and the condition of the unit. We are doing monthly check ups/ inspections, Preventive Maintenance Services (PMS), to the customers that reaches us. We also Repairs the unit if it's not operational already. For short, we are called the doctors of the unit. We travel from time to time if there's a call from our customers that needed our help.
On the other hand this Company is also a place for the "On the Job Traing" students from the different schools. And I was once an OJT student here before. Later than that, when I graduated the company hired me as an official employee in their company. I am currently working for almost 5 years for them. As of now, I am guiding the OJT students that are currently assigned in here. I teach them the proper and safe ways for this kind of field.
What can I say about my Work?
For almost 5 years of staying in this company I must say it's not an easy peasy job. Well I guess there's no job that is easy to work on. "Time management" is a must. Before you go off to work, you must prepare all the necessary things needed and of course yourself. You also need to know how to entertain or interact with the customers with a lot of patience because there are some customers that are demanding. All in all, I am satisfied with the work I have right now because through it, I am able to provide for my needs, especially when comes to financial matters. And this serves as my training ground for I planned to work abroad someday.
That would be all for today, thank you for you time. See you in my next blog!!
That's a good decision. That place will give you more experience that you will need when you apply abroad. Keep loving what you do, and you'll succeed in life.
