Plant Rat In case you

Plant Rat

In case you were wondering, I am a Female Quality Engineer. I work in a Plant for a Parts Supplier that supplies parts to Automotive Manufacturers. And I absolutly love my job. I love the smells, sounds, dirt, excitement, long hours and stress that goes along with working in a Plant. I love being able to solve problems on a daily basis. I love forseeing problems that could happen and doing something to make sure they don't happen.

I have been in the Automotive Industry for 12 years now (geez that long already?), most of those years were in an office setting but goal was to get into a plant. People would look at me like I was crazy, because not to many people will go to a plant willingly. I have been in the plant atmosphere for 5 years now and have no wish to go back working in an office. Well ok on those 90+ degree days I do wonder why the heck I want to work in a plant for, but I have an air conditioned office so that helps.

I think working in a plant reminds me of those days helping Dad repair the cars, the comradery we shared, our special time together.
