"What exactly is it that you do here...."

 I am a Wind Turbine Inspector. I have three primary tasks within my company. My first and favorite task is check on mechanical completion. Once the turbine is considered "mechanically complete" I climb the turbines and do a "walk-down" with the people that are putting them together. I go through the whole wind turbine and check to make sure that everything is in fact put together correctly and is ready for commissioning. If there are parts of the turbine that need attention, I make a "punch list" of the items that need to be fixed and give it to the mechanical completion crew.

The second task I have is during the construction phase of the project. I watch the main crane put together the turbines. I enjoy this part of my job as well because I get to hang out with all of the iron workers and make sure everyone is working safely and efficiently. I also check all the components before they fly to make sure that they are in mint condition.

The third task I have as an inspector, is to be in charge of receiving. This is done prior to either of the first two tasks. I make sure that all the wind turbine components come in in good shape and I document every missing or broken component.

I love my job and look forward to coming into work everyday!
I challenge you to find something that you LOVE doing! It makes work more of an adventure!
