For “Take Your Kid To Work Day,” I went to work with my dad in Downtown, Vancouver. My dad works as a Senior Post Fixture Commercial Manager at Seaspan. I started off my day with a tour of his workplace and building. During this time, there were also many other students there for TYKTWD, so we did some activities to introduce ourselves to each other. We then went back to our parents and saw how each of them did their work and what they do in the day. Since my dad has a lot of meetings during the day, I sat in his office and finished some homework. While my dad was working I also went and spoke to some of the other kids who were there for TYKTWD, since most of us already knew each other. Once he was done with his work, I spent some time with my dad and learned more about his job. During lunch, the company took all the kids to Rogue. I had a lot of fun spending time with my friends during lunch and we got to explore around downtown. Once we got back, my dad took me to a few stores around Downtown where I got to look around more and shop. We then got back and he went back to his meetings and I did some more schoolwork in his office. At my dad’s workplace, I heard keyboards clicking, people talking in meetings and chairs moving around. I could see the waterfront harbour, and many people around me working on different work projects. I feel peaceful and calm sitting in my dad’s office since it is easy to focus and finish my work. I feel like this is a safe and comfortable work environment I would enjoy working in when I’m older. Working in an open and comfortable work environment like my dad’s would motivate me to wake up every day to attend work. His office is also very open and there was a spectacular view of the waterfront I would love to see. In addition, getting to see my colleagues and friends would also help me feel better and so much more excited to work. However, the work hours are quite long and the field of work my dad works in is not something I would enjoy. This may discourage me from working and looking forward to waking up every day to attend work. In addition, it is also far from my house and difficult to get to. While I was there, I also found it interesting that people from all the departments knew each other well and they were all close friends. I think this makes the environment much more exciting to be in. My dad knew everyone we saw around his workplace, which made things much more exciting for me as well. I found this interesting since his office was huge and there were many people working there. Overall, I enjoyed going to work with my dad and had lots of fun seeing his workplace.
