Chemical Engineer for a Day

Since Joseph started working at DOW, I've wanted to see his plant and what he does all day. A few weeks ago, he came home and said that another employee had her family visit the plant so he would find out how to let me go. Well, on Saturday I got to go see Joe's plant! I was very excited to go and I even got to wear an orange hard hat outside and a special badge! For security reasons, I couldn't take any pictures but I found some online of what it looks like.

The little guy in a blue suit is probably one of the operators.

We went on a Saturday when it was pretty calm. Joseph said other days, there are lots of people running around, trying to make sure the plant is running well. Because of security, I was unable to actually go inside all the machinery but Joseph tells me he does that a lot. He keeps reassuring me that his work is safe but I doubt it sometimes. I loved seeing it and knowing what Joseph does all day.
