Read this text about Ellis’s duties, personal skills and the tools he uses. I work in a small company with six employees plus my boss. My main duty is getting to know the different materials, tools and how to use them correctly. My alarm clock rings every morning at 6:30 a.m. After showering and having a small breakfast, I drive by moped for about 20 minutes to work. At 8:00 a.m. my boss tells me about the plan for my working day. So far, I have worked a lot with iron and lead. When cutting the material with a hacksaw, I fix it using a bench vice, but I still need a lot of strength! This week I started working with tin and alu- minium. At 10:15 a.m., we have our first break for 15 minutes (the after- noon one is around 3:00 p.m.). I usually drink a coffee during the breaks, because when using measuring instruments, like callipers or micrometers, I have to be very accurate. The lunch break is from 11:45 a.m. to 12:45 p.m. All of us go together to a canteen down the street. I often have to file for hours, which is sometimes boring, but necessary to develop a feeling. I’m looking forward to being allowed to work with the big machines like the metal press and CNC-lathe. I’m hard working and self-motivated. Because I have to stand on my feet all day long, I also need to be physically fit. My boss thinks that I’m very skilled with my hands. That makes me feel proud! I work in a team, where it is necessary to possess a polite and helpful manner, too. In the evening from 4:30 p.m. to 5:00 p.m., I have to help clean up, e.g. my workbench. I really love my job. I enjoy dinner with my family at around 6:00 p.m. and then meet friends or chill-out. I go to bed at 10:00 p.m. to be fit for the next day!
