Bonnie,
38, works in the Buildings Department at SaskTel in Regina. With
her colleagues, including Architectural Technologists and planning
staff, she produces designs, layouts, and specifications for the
construction of new utility buildings and for renovations of the
existing facilities. Bonnie joined the company in October 1998.
"I spend most of my day on the computer working
on drawings," she says. "We do specifications for projects and
meet with clients, finding out their needs, coordinating everything,
and getting packages sent off to tender. Then it's passed on to
the project manager and carried through to completion."
Computer-aided design (CAD) is a big part of
Bonnie's job. "At technical college, we worked mainly on the drafting
table, and now everything is done on the computer. The learning
curve wasn't too steep, though, since we were introduced to working
on the computer gradually throughout the course."
