To future architects and civil engineers :

Assalammualaikum w.b.t

Alhamdulillah,segala puji untuk-Nya yang memberiku peluang bernafas sehari lagi di atas muka bumi-Nya.




it has been 2 weeks since i started my practical here, in Eiffage Construction, rouen.


this week, i had new task.
to rip out the floor tiling.
and it is about + 1000 m² surface.
using a spade.




whatever it is, i will never complain. it's weird, because in the end of the day, i do not feel any fatigue.


well, maybe because, my everyday would start with morning greeting and big smile from them, my colleagues. they would ask me to sit down, chilling out by offering me a cup of green tea before the clock goes 8 am.


sweet.


or maybe, the fatigue disappear whenever i see their hungry faces during lunch time. they would eagerly grab their lunchbox and cant stop joking among them. you see, its fun to check up their lunchbox because it varies everytime.


until today.
i felt like the tranquility is being threaten.


a man, looking so elegant and class with his white shirt, black suit and a pair of shiny black shoes, stepped in to our area of working. i put aside my spade and stand straight to greet him. he looked into my eyes.


'bonjour.' i said and smiled.


he gave me a nod. but just a little one. he didnt say a word, but from the way he looked at me, i knew, he must thought me as a poor lady who had no choice of work to support my children.


yeah right.


and then he walked away. and still nothing came out from his mouth when he passed by my colleagues.


"who is that?" i asked Arnorld (he is the one who take care of me there).


"i dont know. i guess, he's the architect. or maybe the civil engineer. who knows?" he answered.


i ran to the window near by to see him going out from this rehabilitated building. then, i said to myself ;


the next time, when i'll be a success civil engineer, i would never be like him. i would never put such clothes on me everytime i'd like to visit the construction site. and i promise i would smile and greet everyone.


insyaAllah. amin.


p/s: true, u can see grammar mistakes here and there. but its ok. i just want to give it a try. hehe.
