Technician Spotlight: Phil O. Lead Diesel Technician- Caledonia, WI I started my journey by building hot rods with my buddy in the garage. What began as a fun hobby led me to pursue my passion at UTI, where I earned my Automotive and Diesel degree. After spending years in the automotive world, I found my way into a Kenworth shop and have been working in the diesel industry ever since. What I love about working at Mater Fleet is the culture of teamwork. It's inspiring to see upper management, from our Tractor Manager to the President, rolling up their sleeves and getting involved directly in the work—whether it's under the trucks or moving parts. To new employees: Be patient. Our work involves a learning curve because we’re not brand-specific. We work on all makes and models, and that variety can be challenging but rewarding. Looking ahead, my goal is to lead a shop or department within this industry in the next five years. I'm excited about the future and the opportunities ahead! #DieselTech #CareerJourney #HeavyDutyTrucks #Teamwork #FutureGoals

What's your worst safety fail? Here at Wärtsilä we have a very strong focus on #safety. Next week we are having a global Safety Awareness week, and this made me reflect back on my 20+ year career in the Marine and Power industries. Although Wartsila has always been very safety focused, I've seen some really spectacular safety fails from other companies/people in the industry! Here are a few I think I will never forget, let me know in the comments if you have any that would beat these: 1. A gangway at a dry dock which was only 20mm long enough at each end and not tied on, no way I was walking down that! 2. A shipyard scanning a submarine hull for cracks (think BIG Xray) with me and my colleagues inside it!!! I was probably glowing afterwards! 3. Someone sleeping in a tool box in a floating drydock in the Caribbean! 4. Someone walking barefoot in a power plant (I kid you not!) 5. People walking around a drydock in flip flops 6. People welding on a really high scaffolding, just balancing on the metal bar with no harnesses 7. Someone hitting an open ended spanner (wrench) with a massive hammer and wondering why the wrench flew off into their forehead!!! Hopefully things like this are a thing of the past as the whole world pays more attention to safety. I for one make a promise to myself to always consider safety first. #mindyourhead #wellbeing #fuelyourpower

Time has passed swiftly, month of early June marks the end of my four- plus year tenure with the Silent-Aire family. It's been a journey through various departments that has left a lasting impact on me. I'm grateful for the guidance and support of my mentors throughout this time. I initially thought moving from one team to another would be straightforward, but I now realize that leaving behind supportive team members is always challenging. The unconditional support and care I received from my team were invaluable. A great leader guides their team with trust, avoiding micromanagement, which has been crucial to my success. I will deeply miss the amazing team I've built, but I am confident that we will all continue to grow and thrive. I confidently endorse Silent-Aire to anyone in my network seeking employment. It's a fantastic organization that provides ample opportunities for career advancement. The merger with Johnson Controls has brought additional benefits, enhancing work-life balance and overall satisfaction. During my time with the organization, I had the privilege of meeting many exceptional individuals who played a crucial role in the company's success. Together with this remarkable team, I successfully led various capital projects, particularly in welding. We implemented three advanced structural robotic weld cells with five stations, and our pipe welding facility boasts cutting-edge robotic technology. Additionally, we modernized the entire structural fabrication shop using lean principles and introduced innovative laser technology for structural fabrication processing—a first of its kind in Canada. These significant investments demonstrate our ongoing commitment to automation. I'm confident that we'll continue to embark on exciting automation projects already in development. I'm transitioning internally within the Johnson Controls family, ensuring I remain part of this organization. The future is unpredictable, but I've experienced firsthand how Johnson Controls values its people and fosters professional development—I'm a testament to that. It's a promising opportunity with fantastic leadership and team members, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the new challenge and exciting opportunities ahead. Sharing a few photos from the farewell party and the touching gifts I received will hold a special place in my heart, will miss a bunch of wonderful people and team. ❤️❤️❤️ #Career #transition #leadership #advancedmanufacturing #manufacturingengineering #oneteam #leader #automation #weldingautomation #Cobot #pipewelding #lean #continuousimprovement #operations #plantmanagement
