Hello! My name is David. I work for a construction company. I have worked for this company for nearly 5 years. We built roads, dams, fridges, and things like that. At the moment, my company is producing a plan for a new motor way. I usually work in the roads department, but this month I am working in the department that builds bridges. So my whole working day is different just now. I normally spend a lot of time outdoors, because I have to go to the construction sites. But this new project I spend a lot of time in the workshop. Now I am testing a model of one of the new bridges. I enjoy it a lot, because I have learned a lot of new things.
