Transfer from Tender department to Site. From air-conditioned office to dusty construction site.
The project: SSM518 Modular Housing in Yuen Long. Concrete, cranes, hard hats.

Office vs Site

Office: staring at drawings, fine details, but air conditioning. Site: watching progress, real results, but dusty shoes and sweaty shirts.
The biggest change was my step count. Office = neck pain. Site = leg pain. But watching a building rise from nothing beats data on a screen.

The Pace

Site work is intense. Tight deadlines, constant coordination. But there is satisfaction in seeing physical progress every day.

Conclusion

Dusty, tiring, but rewarding. Sometimes you need to get your hands dirty to feel real progress.
