This week were taking care of all of the waste chemicals in the store room. First of all I had to type a list of chemicals and there quantifier into an excel document. There were some issues in sending the documents to Ken's laptop so they could be printed out, therefore I had to find a USB key off some one to transfer the document to the other computer. Once I got it sorted I had to compile all of the document into one new excel document and print it off to keep a record of all of the chemicals used this month.
Afterwards I went back down to the store room with the list of chemicals that needed to be moved to a waste disposal unit at the back of the collage. Once all of the chemicals were taken out and disposed of properly we had our small break at 11:00.
After our small break we went back down to the store room to put new orders that came in, away into the chemical store room. We had to count the different numbers of bottles of each chemical and keep a record of them. We also had to be very careful to close all of the storage cabinates properly to prevent any fumes from the chemicals getting out into the air.
Just before lunch we had to go to different store rooms in the building and check the different locks and keys and see which keys matched which with the locks.
when we came back after lunch at 2:00 Ken had organised for us to go to a lecture on first year chemistry. I didn't really understand the whole lecture as it was quite a complex topic that we have not covered in school yet. However, I found it very useful o see what it is like to sit through an entire collage lecture. It was interesting to see how the students behaved and how the lecture Declan spoke to them and what questions they came up with.
When we got back Ken had just some small filling jobs for us to do before we went home. We organised more invoices and made another order over the phone. I finished up at around 4:00 for the day.
