My International Professional Practice Journey

  Commuting with Plumb zone coworkers has allowed me to work on my patience (traffic around the Southall area is not fun before/after work). It has also allowed me to catch up with friends and family on the phone on my drive home (don’t worry, I use a Bluetooth headset so both hands are still on the wheel), and the drive gives me time to clear my head.

I began sorting various locks to locate combinations for those locks. I continued to analyze property passes to check for proper authorization and to confirm the destination. I was also positioned on a stakeout for most of the afternoon to possibly witness criminal activity.

  I was given a tour of the different divisions and facilities at Plumb zone Inc.. During the tour, we discussed the functions and security requirements of the various facilities. Later, I attended a briefing conducted by Safi , who stressed the importance of safeguarding classified information and other company sensitive information.

  The highlight of my time  working in the front desk is like  the morning of pay day. I had to deal with an endless stream of impatient and demanding clients, but just seeing the solidarity between my colleagues, and heading out together to socialize at the end of the exhausting day, made it all worthwhile.

  My Internship at Plumb zone allowed me to grow personally, but it also helped me to gain new skills in basic accounting and customer relationships—experience that I did not previously have. I also gained a better understanding of the plumbing industry, made a new network, and gained a few new references for the future. But most importantly, I gained  a new sense of professionalism  and a clearer view of what it meant to be in the professional world.
