Greyson Week 2

Image
This week we moved to the Rosslyn plant in Pretoria. So last Sunday Nozomi and I got driven over to our new place to stay, Utopia Guesthouse. Its been really great, the breakfast is delicious and we get vouchers for dinner every day at a restaurant next door. The people here are really great and have been very accommodating.  My bedroom at Utopia Guesthouse This week I met the group of people Im working with at the brewery. My main contact, Myron is in charge of the engine room at the brewery which is where Ill be working, Nozomi's host Monique works with CIPs in Brewing and gave us a tour of the brew houses in the plant, giving us a brief overview of the brewing process from the collection of the raw materials all the way through shipping the beer off to the packaging department. Then Terrance, another employee we're working with, gave us the run down of Inbev's management strategy and then gave us a step by step walk through of the packaging process, showing us e...

Greyson First Week

I arrived in South Africa Friday before last and it took a few days before I didn't have to take a nap in the middle of the day. Inbev put us up in this place called the Muco Guesthouse which was a great little place to stay with very friendly people among both the staff and the guests. It was walking distance from Rivonia Village, a little mall area with food and shopping. Inbev got us tickets to Castle Lite Unlocks on Monday, which had food, drinks, and performances by various artists, as well as a few interviews with the artists. It was really fun and I got to try two different cocktails made with Castle Lite (A mojito and a ginger twist), as well as a regular Castle Lite draught. We had a ton of fun and there were a bunch of people there. During our first week, we were stationed at one of the offices in Sandton, and given a variety of different resources to begin studying for our projects. On Wednesday, we went to a different office and got to participate in some budget mee...

Greyson Week 4

So this week has been mostly spent finishing up a number of my projects. I've been writing reports, guides, proposals, and learning how operations work around the plant so that I can integrate the new practices I'm proposing. Its been a fun time meeting different people around the plant and learning how the company tracks how well the plant is operating. In our afternoons we've still been going to he pub after work for free beers and Nozomi and Rudy have made some friends to play pool with most days. Since Im not a big pool player I've been talking with different people while they play and we've met some really fun people. This week has been a fun little wrap up of all of my different projects, and was supposed to be the last week we spent at the Rosslyn Plant, but after reaching out to various people involved with our program we managed to get an additional week here. We thought that getting another week getting experience at the plant would be better than a week i...
