Today was my first day at DPR Construction. I began my day at 7:30 this morning when I met Mike Svirsko, my contact at DPR, for breakfast. We discussed school at Cary Academy and our plans for the next two weeks. We then traveled to One Glenwood Avenue, an office complex that DPR is building. There, I attended a meeting regarding the status of the project and got to meet many other employees. I also got to see the building drawings and check the status of several items on the “punch list,” a list of last minute things to do before the customer inspects the project. After eating lunch at the store, we went to the DPR office where I received a laptop and met Mark, an electrical estimator who I will be working with next week. Finally, we visited EIG Electrical Systems, an electrical subcontractor owned by DPR. I’ll be helping fabricate electrical systems there the rest of this week.
