[QUOTE="GM2Ford, post: 15602070, member: 142902"] My 1st shift job (job I obtained shortly after graduting school), salaried, I'm working as an NVH Engineer for a smaller Brake Shim development company. I spend a lot of time designing brake shims, running tests for caliper manufacturers, creating reports, & meeting costumers to either share my results so far or to introduce myself and new updates about our company to try to get more business. It's a smaller company so I feel as if sometimes I'm wearing many hats. My 2nd shift job, hourly, I'm working as a technician conducting routine maintenance at scheduled intervals and inspections on 2019+ GM vehicles and documenting anything that looks like it could be a potential recall. This job is no where near as mentally stimulating, but there's only 3 of us who work during this shift, my manager and another co-worker. I primarily do 60% of the work load, if not, half of it every single day. So I do not feel as if I'm only giving 50% at each job. At my engineering job I spent most of the 1st year working from 7:30am to 9pm to try to learn all of the rolls I'd be involved in and to learn as much as I could since this position was completely new to me. It also made it challenging because my superior is Japanese and his English is not the greatest. So when he try's to teach me something or go over something, it was and still is difficult to grasp "exactly" what's being asked or demonstrated. This was part of the main reason why I put in so much extra time before and after the scheduled working ours. But there is some downtime at these jobs sometimes that I take advantage of to reply to postings like this. Normally I'd find something else to learn about (at my engineering job), or just stay busy (at my 3rd shift job). [/QUOTE]
