Thanks for watching
I love your vlogs. They’re so wholesome!!
Thanks for watching. 😁
Grea video, would love to see a video of the day to day work tasks you do on your computer
Thanks for watching. I think I'll make a video about that soon.
Thank goodness you finally get to work from home for a few days. Seeing your brutal commute from Leppington to Town Hall was killing me a bit on the inside. Imagine having to do that daily. Would be soul destroying.
Thanks for watching. Yeah I don't know how we all managed to do it pre covid. Before covid I was 5 days a week in the office. But definately can't go back to that now
Hey Brandon, cool vlog as always. Would love a video on the software you use at work.
Thanks for watching. Yeah I will make a video about that down the track.
I can totally relate. We also live in Sydney. 🎉
Thanks for watching
Questions im hoping you'll answer:
1. What's your companys stance on being accountable for your work considering hybrid model ie you give daily/weekly updates, entire team meetings, chat on Teams?
2. Whats workplace culture like post covid as ours definitely changed with introduction of hybrid model. Some good some not so good!
3. Has production at work improved or declined with hybrid based on feedback you may have heard?
No need to answer all, just curious what your experience would be in civil engineering as i work in a different industry and would love to compare!
Thanks for watching. It would be good to hear your response as well for the same reason as you. But for me.
1. We chat on teams a lot. I guess its the nature of our work is more results orientated so it is easier to see if you are doing the work and you are always accountable, so that hasnt changed. I.e we need to produce drawings or complete markups by a certain date and if nots done by then can deduce either been slacking off or underestimated the time of doing the task. We don't need to necessarily update the entire team on what we are doing but just rather the engineer we are working with.
Majority of team meetings are both in person and on teams. So usually the one leading the meeting, if they are in the office they may book a meeting room and do a hybrid. Otherwise teams meeting always available.
2. Workplace culture. I've only joined my most recent company post covid so can't comment on that but in my previous company, I can say it definately changed. Attitude when working from home changed to more clock in and clock out and a bit more like that when we actually go to the office. We used to stay back more and play ping pong in the office and be really close. I also think its bit harder for the new staff to bond with the older staff if they don't go to the office much. I think its small chit chats in person really help to build relationships and overall will actually improve productivity. For junior staff if they are close with the senior staff, less likely to feel intimidated to call or ask for help.
3. I would say overall productivity has increased, but some people (small minority) has taken advantage of it and kinda abused it. They can become uncontactable or takes hours to respond to messages or take longer than usual to complete tasks. But for the majority of people it has made people more productive and caused work ovetime more common then ever. I think their is a mentality shift of since I don't commute, I don't mind working back an extra 1-2 hrs (most people commute time). But working overtime beyond is less of a burden simce your already home. But also bad cause you may receive emails or messages beyond 5pm and if you see it, you may feel more inclined to respond back.
Hi Brandon, I’m new to the channel and now a sub. Congrats on the contents, keep up the good work. You may have addressed this before, how long have you been in your profession now? Have a great weekend. Cheers
Hi Thanks for watching and the sub. I've been drafting for over 7 years.
Thanks for the reply. Look forward to future vids about your job and life.
Yes please, can you show your actual work. it sounds very interesting.
Yes. Will have one soon. Just testing out different programs for screen recording and recording myself at the same time.
I'm currently finishing up my MDDOP course (multi disciplinary drawing office practice)
May I ask your opinion on this course please, and perhaps the career aspects?
Thank you.
..and I'm from South Africa, we use both electric and gas kettles, we use our kettle on the gas stove coz we like the nostalgia 😊
Hi,
I did a quick google. The MDDOP looks similar to the course I did. In which case, it was more of a design course than drafting but I learnt (basically everything I know on the job). In regards, to career aspects I think drafting is still in demand and you can earn decent money (Can only really talk about my experience here in Australia). Probably biggest issue is potentially working hours, can be quite common to work overtime.
In regards, to career aspects (at least in Australia) you can get opportunities to move into different disciplines as well. E.g project management, modeller, designer or even engineering. Requires more training and company may pay for your further education.
@@BrandonSayasane thanks so much man 👍 wishing you all the best
Hey Brandon , can you give information about your background ,qualifications, how did you get your job as civil drafter ? 😊
Thanks for watching. I discuss those kinda topics in this video here if your interested. m.th-cam.com/video/uw9lOioF8aM/w-d-xo.html&pp=iAQB
Thank you so much 😊
love your content bro, similar life style to me. Did you have any hobbies prior getting this job or this lifestyle? also you play any computer games with that set up? Much love from Melbourne
Thanks for watching. Hobbywise I used to casually play games whether PC or PS (Don't play as much these days). Games like COD, Cyberpunk, Witcher, Fallout, Starfield or Cities Skyline.
@@BrandonSayasane wholesome as ahhaa keep it up bro love the vlogs
What civil drafting projects do you usually engage in,,,roads,housing,drainage ?
Thanks for watching. I originally started in Urban development mainly subdivision drafting which encompassed all the Civil aspects. So roads, drainage, structural (retaining walls), pavement and Sydney water (Water and sewer). I would essentially draft the entire project from Development Application to Construction Certificate.
But at my new company I am in the highways team. So mainly highways at the Design and Construct (D&C) stage for projects and 1 tender. Here I do drafting for Road geometry, geotechnical, a bit of drainage, pavements, road furniture, signage & linemarking and property adjustments.
@BrandonSayasane any giant skyscraper
Unfortunately no. Civil is pretty much stuck on the ground and below lol. Structural drafting is usually the ground and upwards.
Do you get much veggie intake for the day?
Nope lol
You should do a home tour
I may consider it.
Actually electric kettle is very common for Average household. But I do not have that, lol
Thanks for watching. Its just an observation for when I watch American movies, seems stove kettle is the way.
But case in point ha ha
Need to eat the greens for fibre mate 😂
Thanks for watching. The wife says the same thing lol
😊👍👍
Thanks for watching
You're welcome 😊👍🤝
brandon..my neighbour
Hello neighbour. Thanks for watching
U need a proper coffee machine haha not from a satchels
Thanks for watching. Is it worth it? Much difference? Cause my office coffee machine doesn't taste much better than the satchets.
Please showcase your autocad software and some of your markups!
Yep. My next video will showcase some of my work.
I enjoyed the video. Brandon, did you start your working life as a drafter or something else? Would be good to have a video of what other work have you done in the past
Thanks for watching! I actually started in retail as a sales assistant selling electronics.
@BrandonSayasane here at PH we usually use electric kettle as well😊
Thanks, good to know :)
Can relate. I also work as draftsman (sort of) in Sydney and have to travel 90 mins by multiple trains from Rockdale to Macquarie Park (hopefully the coming Metro will cut that hours shorter). Luckily I only need to go to office 1-2 days a week.
Thanks for watching. I feel for the commute.
Love RecipTinEats. Any favourite recipes?
Thanks for watching. My favourite one is probably the shaking beef
@@BrandonSayasane ah yes!! That's a good one 😋
I got Ichiran too from Japanese Market cost me $29.00 for 3 pack, how much is in Japan?
1852 yen which was about $20 AUD at the time for a 5 pack. Bought it at Don Quijote
Enjoyed this! Would like to see some more of how you do your work
Thanks for watching. Noted
What’s the average salary of draftsman can earn ????
Hey thanks for watching. So in Australia from what I've researched and from what I've gathered from other drafters / my own.
1-3 years experience = $33 000 to $70 000 a year inclusive of super.
3-6 years experience = $70 000 to $110 000 inclusive of super
6-15+ years of experience = $90 000 to $160 000 inclusive of super
After the 1-3 years of experience mark, what you can earn really varies dependent on your negotiation skills and experience.
But I guess to say average would between $70 -$120k with at least 4 years of experience.
@BrandonSayasane they told me I should do that I instead of Architecture but most do the exterior
From what I heard, I think drafters can earn more than architects. But unsure, only second hand information.
The only time I have seen more computer monitors in one room is on the trading room floor !
Ha ha it makes it easier for us to do our work. Thanks for watching.
Yes please
Thanks for watching
Good job , Brandon 👍
