Ep 288 | I Documented My Whole Career and Didn't Know It

from The Iron & Infrastructure Podcast

Looking back at old photos brought back a lot more than just memories. In this episode, I go through pictures from some of my earliest experiences in the pipeline industry, from learning to operate equipment at just five or six years old to working cross-country jobs and learning some hard lessons in the field. Some of these moments were challenging, some were terrifying, and a lot of them helped shape who I am today. The crazy part is, I was documenting my career the entire time without even realizing how valuable those pictures would become years later. This is a look back at where I started, what I learned along the way, and some of the experiences I'll never forget. Key Topics: Looking back at the early years of my career Learning to operate equipment at a young age Hard lessons learned on cross-country pipeline jobs Realizing the value of documenting the journey  Follow along @jacobemery44 #ironandinfrastructure #jacobemery #pipeline #bluecollar #leadership #personaldevelopment #construction #careerdevelopment
